Literacy
Chocolate Planet
This week in literacy, pupils looked at the features of a letter and then they planned their letters as Frag and Gala to send to their parents to tell them all about their adventures to the planet Um. Then pupils wrote their letters out before editing them using the features of a letter checklist.
Maths
This week, the Year 2 children have worked very hard to subtract using the column method. They learnt to place the digits in the correct column while ensuring they put the biggest number on top of the smaller one. Next, they subtracted the bottom number from the top number in the ones column.

This week, the children started their position and direction unit. They learnt about using vocabulary associated with positions like right, left, between, below etc. Next about quarter, three-quarters, half, full turns with clockwise and anticlockwise movements. Brilliant effort!
Geography
This week in geography, pupils learnt all about the equator and how the Earth's Equator is the imaginary line that runs through the centre of the globe. Pupils were then able to identify the countries that were either above, below or on the equator using a map.
Forest School
Rowan class popped on their waterproofs and made
the most of the rain. We used the shelter for crafts,
made mini hotels and had a try at lighting mini fires.
We saw grasshoppers, snails and slugs
and played lots of games.
