Wonderful Writing and Marvellous Maths!

A great week of learning in Class 2. In English we have been enjoying the story of Handa's Hen - a counting story set in Kenya. We have been focussing on adjectives again as well as repetitive language and number words. The children wrote some great sentences, remembering to add punctuation. Year 2 included expanded noun phrases and conjunctions in their sentences. In Maths we made some real progress with making amounts using different coins, our counting in 2s, 5s and 10s helped us with this. In RE we all had bibles and read the creation story together. After that we discussed whose responsibility it was to look after the world and designed posters.
In Science we were investigating the statement - 'Your foot is the same size as your forearm.' What do you think?
