Year 2 What We Are Learning

 

                                                

 

   Literacy

As a follow up  to last week’s egg box making

session, the children wrote a set of instructions

on how to make egg box dragons. They wrote a

comprehensive list of  the resources needed to

make the dragons. Next they used  imperative verbs 

with adverbs of manners to make their instructions

clear and easy to follow.  It was lovely to see the children

using Top Tips in their writing too. Well done Year 2.

Maths

This week Year 2 were able to subtract two digit numbers across

ten and not across ten. They completed mixed addition and

subtraction problems. They have shown their understanding of

addition and subtraction in their comparison number sentences

and missing number sentences. Also, they have completed their

end of unit assessment which marks the end of addition and

subtraction and they have done a great job. Well done Year 2!

The Tower of London Trip

This week we took a trip to the Tower of London.

We had great fun exploring. During the trip we saw t

he traitors gate, ravens and the queen's jewels!

We were able to meet the beefeaters and learn some

fantastic facts about what London used to be like!

 

                Forest School

This morning Mulberry class enjoyed making music in

the sunshine. We began experimenting with musical

instruments and finding different ways to make the

sounds. These include scraping, tapping and shaking.

We then made our own woodland sounds and

instruments from sticks, leaves, stones and shells and

performed in our mini orchestras. Lots of fun was had by all.
