Today we have been busy designing our own nightlights by bringing together lots of the skills we have learnt in our topic work. Your child will need to bring in a shoe box for their project soon. We will send a slip of paper home with all the details on, but basically, they need a shoe box please!

In English we looked at the basic elements of a story structure and challenged the children to write their own stories. They were allowed to choose the character and setting.

In Maths we have been looking at place value as a tool to help us add and subtract. The children use equipment called Base 10 in class. It is made of rods of 10 and single cubes. We have looked at how to draw "chips and peas" to represent the ten rods and ones. This is a powerful tool to have and we will be doing lots of practising in class.

Have a lovely weekend,
The Year 2 Team x
