We have been...
- enjoying the new layouts of the classrooms
- learning the routines and expectations of Year 2
- doing lots of team games that require lots of concentration and team work
- working and playing hard
In our topic work we have been investigating logos. We looked at examples such as The British Red Cross, RSPCA, Norfolk Constabulary and Air Ambulance. Then we looked at the logos of Superheroes. We learnt about the features of a successful logo and then used that to design our own.
In English we have been having daily SPaG (Spelling, Punctuation and Grammar) lessons and reading and writing words with the Phase 3 and 5 letters and sounds. We have been developing our knowledge of how to write a perfect sentence and trying hard to apply this in our own work,
We hope you have begun your Super Reading Challenge. Remember, the task is to read your school reading book "Teacher Book" for 15 minutes at least five times this week. You can change your book as often as you like and we do give daily reminders in class for children to do this.
In maths we have been looking at place value and number formation. We have been using apparatus to understand how two and three digit numbers are partitioned into hundreds, tens and ones.
Mrs R and Miss Tovell are really please with how the children have settled into Year 2, watch this space for news and information. We will (do our best to) update the blog on Friday afternoons.
Do come and see one of the Year 2 team if you have any queries or concerns.
