Special places

This half term we have been been looking at Special Places.  The children have talked about and drawn their Special place and explained why it is special to them.

 

We would like it if you can talk to your child about their Special place/s too and if possible send in photographs. We would also like to know about any Special family places, e.g. Where you got married, your child was Christened (photos of the church), places you visit.

 

Thank you.

Science Material Homework

Dear Parents and Carers,

In Class 2 we have started to learn about different materials such as metal, plastic and glass. We are now moving on to  what properties different materials have such as rough, smooth, shiny and soft. I would like the children to find any objects that have these properties in and around their house and draw and label pictures of their objects. We will talk about what they have found next week.

Homework due Friday 2nd February 2018.

Science Homework

Thank you for your support,
Miss Roberts

Class 2 weekly update

English: This week Green and Yellow group have been reading our RWI books as part of a guided read. On Thursday the children worked together to imagine Beegu’s planet and describe it using lots of lovely adjectives, they were then asked to write interesting sentences to describe the planet. Today we enjoyed our session in the outdoors, making shelters for Beegu and her friends.

Maths: The children have continued with addition this week. They have developed their addition skills using the part-whole models and looked at counting on from a given number to find a missing number in an addition sentence.

Science: The children were identifying the differences between an object and the material that it was made from.

RE: This week, we were thinking of examples of how Christians put their beliefs into practise in the church community and their own lives e.g. charity, confession.

Geography: In Geography this week, the children have looked at cloud forests. They were writing an extended piece to describe a cloud forest from what they have learned.

Spellings: To be tested on Friday 2nd February 2018.
