<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">This week in science we have continued to look at materials. We have talked about whether materials are suitable or unsuitable - for example would trousers made of paper be suitable? Then we used our creativity to make instruments out of recyclable materials. We then thought about the suitability of these. Are they strong? Do they make a nice sound? As part of your home learning you could design or create at item of clothing out of materials other than fabrics. What makes them suitable or unsuitable? This could be recorded in your home learning book.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">In maths we have continued to look at division but this week we are focusing on division by grouping. (See the example below) We would love for the children to continue to practice this at home with some sweets or their toys. You are welcome to send up photos of their work or to record anything in their home learning book.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">In English this week we are focusing on editing work. We have read a fact file about Mrs Ellis where she made lots of mistakes! We read it through lots of times to check for...</span></div>
<ul style="text-align: justify;">
<li><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">capital letters at the beginning of every sentence</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">capital letters for people names and places </span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">full stops</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">spellings of tricky words</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">phonetically plausible words (e.g. for the word home- h<i>oa</i>m is phonetically plausible, hom is not) </span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">words which could be contractions (e.g. I am -> I'm)</span></li>
</ul>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">We will be writing our own fact files this week and then using our editing skills (we like to do this in red pen!) to make our work even better. We will also be learning about apostrophes for possession. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">In maths this week we have moved on to looking at division through sharing. Children have been learning to recognise the division symbol and how to share into equal groups. We also did this outside by sharing bulbs equally into pots. <span style="background-color: #ffd966;">You could have a go at this at home by sharing toys or sweets. If we have 10 sweets in total and share them between 2 of us- how many do we each get? If we have 20 toy cars and share them between 4 children- how many will they get each? </span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">In science this week we have bee looking at and comparing everyday materials. We carried out an experiment to compare the bounciness of balls made out of different materials. We also went around the school and classroom on a materials hunt thinking about what things are made from, is this natural or man-made and why it is made from that material? </span><span style="background-color: #ffd966; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">As part of your home learning you could g</span><span style="background-color: #ffd966; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; line-height: 115%;">o around the rooms and look at
different types of materials and list what they are used for. For example you
might find glass in the kitchen in the windows and for drinking glasses. Then
think about how these materials can be used outside of the home as well.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">In maths we have been learning about multiplication. </span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , "arial" , "tahoma" , sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">The basic idea of multiplication is repeated addition. </span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , "arial" , "tahoma" , sans-serif;">Example: 5 × 3 = 5 + 5 + 5 = 15. We will be continuing with this in the new term. <span style="background-color: #ffd966;">As part of your home learning it would be great if you can continue to count in 2s, 3s, 5s and 10s as this help children to answer multiplication problems. </span></span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">- making amounts using the fewest coins ( e.g. 57p = 50p + 5p + 2p)</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<li style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">spelling common exception words and learning how to use a word mat to find them and spell them correctly (all children have one of these in their home learning books) </span></li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">learning about using an apostrophe for contractions (e.g. I am -> I'm, it will -> it'll)</span></li>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">1. Roll a dice</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">3. Repeat</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">4. Can you exchange the 1p coins for any larger coins? (for example exchange two 1p coins for one 2p coin, or 5 1p coins for one 5p coin)</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">5. Each player gets 3 turns and then count your total to see who has the most and who has the least!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">The winner could be the player with the least amount of coins or the player with the largest value of coins.</span><br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">This week we were really lucky and got to meet Ben Langley from Norwich Theatre Royal. He gave each class a pantomime workshop and it was fantastic! The children got to enjoy listening to the story of Aladdin and we couldn't stop laughing! </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">We love how much most of the children are reading at home. Please could we ask that they are reading their school books first and then enjoying other books. They are free to change their school books as often as they like. This is especially important if they are reading daily or if they are not enjoying a particular book. We ask that children read at least 5 times a week but ideally we would like them to be reading every day. Thank you for your support with this.</span><br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">In English this week the children have continued to plan their pirate stories and have had a go at writing the whole thing- beginning, middle and end! We will be reading it back to edit and make any changes. They have worked really hard and we are really impressed with their efforts. <span style="background-color: #ffd966;">Are they able to retell their stories at home?</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">In maths this week we have continued to look at subtraction. In Mrs Ellis's class we have looked at...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">- 2 digit subtract 1 digit numbers (e.g. 15 - 4 =)</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">- 2 digit subtract a 10s number (e.g. 15 - 10 =)</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">- 2 digit subtract a 2 digit number (e.g. 15 - 12 =)</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">We have looked at these firstly using concrete resources (tens and ones) and then used pictorial representations (drawing the tens and ones). Some children have also been able to solve these mentally as well!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">In Mr Whitehead's group children have been...</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">- 2 digit subtract a 10s number (e.g. 15 - 10 =)</span></div>

<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Next week we will start to look at money- recognising different coins and notes, making different amounts and solving simple problems for money. <span style="background-color: #ffd966;">As part of your home learning it would be great if you could give the children some real coins to look at and play with. If you have a big pot of change at home there is a simple game you can play...</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">1. Roll a dice</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">2. Count out that many 1p coins</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">3. Repeat</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">4. Can you exchange the 1p coins for any larger coins? (for example exchange two 1p coins for one 2p coin, or 5 1p coins for one 5p coin)</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">5. Each player gets 3 turns and then count your total to see who has the most and who has the least!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">The winner could be the player with the least amount of coins or the player with the largest value of coins.</span></div>

This is an online science curriculum which we are using in year 2 to teach science. Each child as their own log in so they can access the lessons at home once they have been taught in school. At the end of each lesson there is a quiz they can complete.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">On Monday we had a fantastic time at Lodge Lane Infant school working alongside their year 2 children. We got to try shooting in a basket ball hoop, our dribbling skills, team building games and we were lucky enough to try some basic jiu jitsu skills as well! </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">In English this week we have started a plan to write a pirate story. The children have all drawn and labelled their own character, decided on a suitable setting and started to think of interesting ways to begin their story. <span style="background-color: #ffd966;">As part of your home learning you could read lots of different books and look at the beginnings. How does it start? Does it make you want to read more? Can you think of different ways the book could have started? </span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">We have also reminded ourselves what verbs are (doing or action words). We watched this video...</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: red;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nPrWo5pEvyk</span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"> ...and wrote down as many verbs as we could. We were really impressed with how many different verbs the children came up with. We then thought about verbs associated with pirates and learnt about adding the suffix -ing to them. For example look -> looking, search -> searching, find -> finding. We will use these next week when we think about writing the middle and end of our pirate stories!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">In maths we have started to look at subtraction. We know that there are lots of words we can use including...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">subtract</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">minus</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">take away</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">less</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">leave</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">difference</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">In Mrs Ellis's group we started the week by looking at 1 more and 1 less using a 100 square. You could try this at home using the paint the squares 100 square link below...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: red; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">https://www.topmarks.co.uk/learning-to-count/paint-the-squares </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">We have then moved on to looking at taking away using concrete objects and then beginning to draw these pictorially. We have mainly focused on 1 digit subtract 1 digit numbers ( 9 - 3 = ) and 2 digit subtract 1 digit numbers ( 15 - 3 = ). </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">In Mr Whitehead's group they have been looking at subtraction using 2 digit subtract 2 digit numbers and choosing their favourite method to solve these number sentences. Which method does your child prefer? </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">For both groups we encourage you to count forwards and backwards 10s starting from 0 (0, 10, 20..) but also from any number (e.g. 3, 13, 23, 33...) as this really helps them to solve problems. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">In maths this week we have been learning how to count in 3s. <span style="background-color: yellow;">As part of your home learning we would like your children to continue this at home. We have been singing it to the tune of row, row, row your boat. </span></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">We also encourage to children to regularly count in 2s, 5s and 10s up to 100 and if they would like an extra challenge you could ask them to count in 10s from any number. For example 3, 13, 23, 33...etc.</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">This week we had a fantastic time at Norwich Theatre Royal watching the Music for Youth Primary Proms. It was really inspiring for the children to watch other children performing. We were really proud of how well the children behaved and this was commented on by other schools and the coach driver! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">We were lucky enough to listen to a Cantabene choir, Norfolk County Strings, West Lynn Strummers & Drummers and Norfolk County Symphonic Wind Band.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">This week in maths we have been recapping on number bonds to 10, learning about number bonds to 20 and thinking about addition using our knowledge of place value! <span style="background-color: yellow;"></span>Number bonds are also often referred to as 'number pairs'. They are simply the pairs of numbers that make up a given number. For example- 16 + 4 = 20, 4 + 16 = 20, 15 + 5 = 20</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: yellow;">As part of your home learning you could play board games such as snakes and ladders- can your child add the number they are on to the number rolled on the dice without moving the counter? There is also a great game your child can play...</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">In English we have been looking at similarities in Pirate stories. One thing we noticed is that Pirates often receive letters in a bottle. We have been looking at different letters, thinking about the features of letters and talking about why we send and receive letters. We have looked at formal letters (to people we don't usually know) and informal letters (to people we know). <span style="background-color: yellow;"> As part of your home learning you could share different letters you get the in post (even if it is a bill!), what do they notice? You could also teach you child your home address as we will be writing these at the top of our letters. </span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: "sassooncrinfant"; font-size: 18.6667px; text-indent: -24px;">Big talk is sent home weekly and is a talking activity.

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "sassooncrinfant"; font-size: 14pt; line-height: 115%; text-indent: -18pt;">The expectation in Year 2 is that children read 5 times a week for
about 5 – 10 mins- building up to longer. As their reading becomes more confident and fluent we focus on comprehension and understanding. Please remember that we prefer q</span><span style="font-family: "sassooncrinfant"; font-size: 14pt; text-indent: -18pt;">uality rather than quantity – when should we read? DO what
works for you! Please record reads in their yellow reading diary and if you want get them to write it in. Please remember that t</span><span style="font-family: "sassooncrinfant"; font-size: 14pt; text-indent: -18pt;">here’s always an opportunity for reading!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">We had a fantastic time at the Time and Tide museum on Monday. The staff and members of the public loved how well behaved and enthusiastic all of the children were. This week in English we have been writing a recount of what happened. <span style="background-color: yellow;">As part of your home learning can your child tell you (using past tense verbs) about what happened? Below are some pictures to help!</span></span></div>

We have been comparing two numbers and thinking about why there are more or less than. For example-</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">24 < 34</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">24 is less than 34 because 24 only has 2 tens but 34 has 3 tens</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Firstly a big thank you to all those who were able to attend our first year two reading event. We hope you found it useful and please feel free to come and ask us questions or if you have any concerns. It really was lovely to see the children enjoying reading in school with all of you- we really appreciate your support. <span style="background-color: yellow;">As part of your home learning this week we would like to challenge you and your child(ren) to read as many things as possible which aren't books! This could be recorded in your home learning book if you want to. We would love to give out team points to those children who can share what they have read and where! </span></span></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="border-image: none;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">As promised we are also sending home this week some top tips to support your child's reading at home. We hope you find this useful.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">As you know all children are part of a team (Snowdon, Ben Nevis or Scarfell Pike). Children can gain team points for a range of things including making good choices. As a school we would like to have team captains for each team. The year 2 children will be given the opportunity to be a captain for their team but first of all they will need to apply for the position. We would like you to speak to your child and help them to prepare for this if it is something they would like to do. We will then give them the chance to speak to their team and each team will vote for one team captain.</span> </div>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Welcome to the first full week of year 2. This week the children have had a taster of what it is like to be a year 2 pupil! We have been talking to them about responsibilities at break time and lunch time as bib holders. These roles are voluntary and different children will be selected at random each week to be either a red bib (to help others on the playground), a yellow bib (litter picking), green bib (singing and music) or blue bib (tidying the toys and sheds). We are really encouraging the children to take more responsibility so please encourage them to volunteer and talk to them about their role. </span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">In maths we have been learning all about place value using tens and ones. We know that a two digit number (e.g. 24) is made up of the digits 2 and 4 but that the 2 is worth 20 (2 tens) and the 4 is worth 4 (4 ones). We have been recording this as a number sentence 24 = 20 + 4. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: yellow;">As part of your home learning you could practice counting in 2s, 5s and 10s up to 100. You could talk about numbers you see out and about and encourage your children to think about how many tens and ones there are. For example- the number <b>37</b> bus. The number 37 is made up of 3 tens and 7 units. They can record this in their home learning book if they would like to. </span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">In English we have been recapping how to write a sentence using capital letters and full stops. We have been reading the story The Pirates Next Door by Johnny Duddle and thinking about our own story openers. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">During this half term we will be doing gymnastics in PE. We would love for the children to start to wear a t-shirt which matches their team colour (either red, blue or green). Please remember that all long hair should be tied back and please provide tape to cover any earrings. Our PE will usually be on a Tuesday but please remember to keep a PE kit in school at all times- especially those who are starting sporting after school clubs from Monday. </span><br />

This learning is all building up to us having a big writing lesson where we will create an extended descriptive piece of work on the events of a day in the life of a bird. We have also used these animals to assist our understanding of measurements of length and weight using various birds to challenge us in using standard units of cm/m and kg/g. For further learning why not discover the weight and length of your favourite animals and then measure out how long they are. All of this has been done along side the beginning of our summer concert practice which we are very excited about. The concert is going to be called Shine and each set of parents from both classes will have the opportunity to see the children share their favourite memories and sing along to several songs, either on the Wednesday (Mrs Rayfield class) or Thursday (Mr Whiteheads) next week. It's going to be the greatest show!<br />
<br />
Next week we are going to explore the lives of primates! To be ready for this why don't you look into what the word primate means and what type of animals are called this. We will also use primates to help us with our maths learning of making and interpreting data and statistics.<br />
<br />
Don't forget the school summer fayer is this Friday 6th and there will be lots to see, including the children's hard work, and do with all sorts of stalls and games. The temperature lately means it will hopefully be a sizzling event.<br />
<br />
Finally a quick reminder if you wish your child to have sun cream in this weather please make sure it is a named and easy to apply bottle as they will have to do this by themselves.<br />

<br />
We had the perfect weather and that was accompanied by a brilliant teacher, called Sara, who we loved listening to as she talked to us about the animals in Africa's Savannah, desert and rain forests. Ask us who, Elton, Willy Wonka or Mork (and Mindy!) are if you want to know more...<br />

We've come back and spent time this week writing a recount of the trip and making our puppets of an African animal. At the summer fayre next Friday be sure to come into our rooms to find out more about what we have been doing. We are super proud of our efforts!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Next week we will continue to think about animals, mostly birds as we spend a week learning about them. We will also have a week were we look into primates, and focus on animal conservation before we finish the topic so start to research animals that fall into those families. As well as that we have got a lot of practicing for our summer concert to start doing. We hope you can get the year 2 songs out of your head, they're really catchy! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Also next Thursday (during the school day) there will be another transition event for all of the children who are going to Old Catton Juniors. The event will be over before lunch time and will be at the junior school so there will be the full year 2 team walking them down there. If anyone would like to know anymore then please come and speak to the year team.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Hope you all have a lovely weekend in the sun and see you ready for some singing next week!</div>

We have realised today that we are about to begin the final 30 days of the children's time in year 2 and therefore at Garrick Green. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
However, we still have plenty of things left to do and look forward too. There's the whole school trip to Africa Alive, sports week and the making of puppets to name but three. The puppet making will be of an African animal that roams the savanna, can you begin to decide which one you would like to make? The animal each child selects to make a puppet of will then also be used as the basis of a poem that they will write. Eventually we are hoping to create our own class version of the book The Carnival of the Animals that is photographed below and was inspired by the music of Saint-Saens. Talking of music we also have the schools end of year performance to look forward to and in preparation for that it would be great if every child could begin to think about some of their favourite memories of there time at the school.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
This week we have begun to consider how different books are more suited to different readers, with the language used in each being appropriate to that reader. This is some of the work we will do to be ready to write our own poems next week. If you can it would be great if you could begin to read poems in order to know some of the features of poems that you could use when we write them next week. In maths we have been focusing on continuing to use the skills and strategies taught to answer a variety of different problems, such as this...</div>

The first person to come to Mr W or Mrs R with both answers will earn a team point! We have also been learning to tell the time and this has included conversations about the three different ways we talk about time. Can you tell your parents what those three ways are?</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Finally, we would like to remind everyone that a PE kit is needed all week at school. As ever, if there are any questions or concerns please come and speak to one of the year 2 team.</div>

<span lang="EN-US">Welcome back after your half term holiday.
We have spent this first week back learning about Russia in our international
week. This has included learning about the composer Tchakovsky and artist
Kandinsky. We also used some measuring maths skills as we baked some Russian
honey cake and enjoyed the mini world cup. Our talk homework this week has a
very famous religious landmark on it from Moscow can you share what your
families what you know about it. Please note that due to the sing up event that
some of the year two will attend we have decided to send this home on Monday.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US">The mini world cup (see photos below) has got us into a sporty
mood especcially with the school sports week looming on the horizon. We have
also had good news with one of our golf teams being selected to take part in
Norfolk summer school games 2018. Those asked to take part will be informed
shortly and the event will be during the school day (10-12.30) of Tuesday 19<sup>th</sup>
June and will take place at the Norwich family golf centre. The PE theme
continues with some children going to the Norfolk show soon to perform a dance.
Please continue to support us in reminding the children that they have been
provided with a fabulous opportunity and should treat it as one when taking
part in any of the experiences, from practice through to event. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US">Next week sees us return to our carnival of
the animals topic and with the whole school trip to Africa alive coming up we
are going to be learning about more worldly animals from places such as the
polar, desert and rainforest areas. Can you name where any of these are on the
map? Do any of the countries you represented at the mini world cup have any of
these habitats?<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US">We plan on doing some maths work that
includes telling the time and different daily puzzles and questions that will
encourage the children to use many of the skills taught this year. Please
continue to try and use your maths skills at home, have you got an
older/younger sibling you could teach or test?<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<br />
On Friday the 18th of May we had a visitor called Nick from the Norfolk Broads Authority and he came to tell us about all the wildlife in our pond. He brought in a microscope and connected it up so we could look closely at all the different things we found. We had great fun learning about Norfolk Broads animals, especially when asking Nick questions.<br />

<br />
Alongside all of that in Maths we have been solving problems involving number patterns, symmetry, shape and dominoes! If you fancy having a go at a new challenge... why not look at this:<br />
<a href="https://nrich.maths.org/245">https://nrich.maths.org/245</a><br />
<br />
<br />
In English we have been reading and writing poems with an animal theme. We have tried to write mini-poems using only 4 sentences using each sentence type.<br />
<br />
<br />
In topic we have been thinking about mini-beasts and their habitats. When we come back after the holiday we will look at bigger animals from elsewhere in the world. Can you identify some of their habitats, life cycles and food chains?<br />
<br />
<br />
Finally, thanks for everyones efforts during the very busy month of May and please remember that if you have any questions, do come and see one of the Year 2 Team.<br />
<br />

Thank you for your many and varied toys that have come in to be treated, hopefully they are all on the mend and will be home soon.<br />
<br />
In English we have been continuing to use The Great Pet Sale by Mick Inkpen. We have begun to identify features of the book that we will need to use in our own versions e.g. alliteration. We have designed our own main characters to swap for Mick Inkpen's rascally rat. Can your child remember who they have created? They will use their character for their own version of the book during the next few English lessons.<br />
<br />
Why not see if you can get hold of some other books by Mick Inkpen to read?<br />
https://www.hachettechildrens.co.uk/Books/MickInkpen/index.page<br />
You could look at home, at school in the classroom or the library, visit your local library or even look in the book-swap shed!<br />
<br />
In maths we have been handling coins and investigating ways to pay. You can help at home by looking at real coins and talking about their worth. The children have been exploring addition by finding totals of amounts. We have begun to think about giving change and relating this to subtraction. Please continue to practise times tables at home. This relates well to money as you can say things such as "how much are eight 5p coins worth?".<br />
<br />
<br />
In our topic we are beginning to think about the animals we would find our locality and a little further afield. We will be comparing pets, farm animals and wildlife.<br />
<br />
As always, if you have any questions or comments, do come and see one of the Year 2 Team.<br />

<span lang="EN-US">Last week we have continued to think about our carnival of the animals topic and have begun to create an animal rescue role-play area. As we have said to the children, they are free to bring in any animal toys if they have asked permission at home and are happy for other children to play with them, it would be best to stick to no more than one or two per child. We have already raided our personal teacher toy collection though, so it is not urgent to do so. We have also used our scientific enquiry minds to learn about life cycles and how they differ for different species.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US">Our English learning this week continues to focus on the book The Great Pet Sale by Mick Inkpen. So far we have read the story and begun to discuss the animals and language we don’t understand. We will move this on by writing our own version of the story next week. Alongside this we have been thinking about how to use money so that we don’t have to rely on tills or shopkeepers to ensure we receive the correct change. This work has included remembering how we can use chips and peas to help us answer what two items cost or how much change is received.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US">Finally, with it being the month of May many children have already begun to prove how much they have learnt in the SATS. So far all of the children have been super keen to demonstrate their best so please keep this up till the end of the month. Equally please remember to talk about word meanings, ask questions and make predictions whilst reading books at home. For further ideas on how to help with reading or any queries generally please come and speak to a member of the year two team. You may also find the website below useful to explore with your child at home, especially when reading.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

We have started to think about our favourite animals and are beginning to learn about new animals.<br />
<br />
Did you know... that whales are mammals? (But they're not furry!)<br />
Mrs R's class found that really exciting.<br />
<br />
In English, our text has been Tadpole's Promise by Jeanne Willis. It has a rather unexpected ending! We used the story to discuss feelings and how authors (and illustrators!) show feelings in stories.<br />
<br />
In Maths, we are exploring the best strategies for adding, subtracting, multiplying and dividing. In Mrs R's room we explored how to add 19 by... adding 20 and taking away 1! We also looked at data handling and answered questions about tally charts. The data was about garden birds.<br />
<br />
In topic, we thought of as many animals as we could and began to decorate the classrooms and role-play areas. Watch this space!<br />
<br />
Ideas for your home learning:<br />
<br />
<ul>
<li>Make an A-Z of animals, what about an A-Z of insects? or mammals?</li>
<li>Research a favourite animal</li>
<li>Ask your adults to help you look carefully for mini-beasts in your garden or in the park</li>
<li>Make a tally chart of birds you see </li>
<li>Ask your friends and family what their favourite animals are and make a graph that shows the answers</li>
<li>Visit the library and choose some topic books</li>
<li>Ask a member of your family about their pet</li>
<li>Find out about an animal you've never heard about... an ocelot? an axolotl?</li>
<li>Use well known websites such the BBC and National Geographic to help you ask and answer questions</li>
</ul>
