English: We have been using contracted words in sentences and learning how to use expended noun phrases this week in English. The children have also been introduced to adverbs, they have added the suffix ‘ly’ to the end of an adjective and used these in exciting sentences.Today the children have written a newspaper report, reporting on Bernard’s disappearance from our story ‘Not Now, Bernard!’

Maths: We have recapped on addition subtraction this week and used our number bonds to 10 to find number bonds to 20.

Science: The children went for a walk in the woods on Tuesday to identify trees. They collected leaves and brought them back to classroom to make tree identification booklets.

History: In History, we looked at the seaside town St Ives, in Cornwall. The children found out lots of interesting facts about St Ives and made a poster to advertise it.

Celebration Assembly: We have been practising hard for our performance on Thursday! Please could the children in Class 2 wear summery clothes to school on Thursday morning to go with our topic ‘Seaside holidays in the past and present’. They can bring their uniforms with them to change into after the assembly.

Spellings:The children have had their last spelling test today! There are no new spellings to learn for next week.

Have a good weekend!

Miss Edwards
