We started out new theme of Africa, in particular Kenya. In English we started looking at stories with repetitive language and focused on writing sentences containing adjectives. In Maths we have started applying number and place value to money activities. We have been using coins to help counting in 2s, 5s and 10s.
PE, this half term, will be led by Colchester United and in RE we started thinking about 'Our Wonderful World' as an introduction to our unit on 'Special Things in Nature'. The children really enjoyed listening to Louis Armstrong.
Science this term is all about animals and Year 2 have been finding out about the young of different animals and finding out which animals lay eggs and which give birth to live young. The children were also interested in learning for how long different animals were pregnant - almost 2 years for an elephant!
All children have Bug club books allocated to them as well as maths activities on Active Learn. New spellings for this half term have also been sent home.
A polite reminder; please say 'goodbye' to your child at the door and encourage them to come into class independently.
