Year 2 2018 - 2019

Miss Walker

Ms Lackford has two cats, two cars and two children.
She likes making up stories, skiing and reading books in a bubble bath.

Both classes will have outdoor games on Tuesday (weather permitting) and Class 2a will have indoor games (gymnastics) on Wednesday.
In Maths this week, the children will begin statistics - Tally Charts and Pictograms
In English, the children will begin to look at the story 'The Three Little Wolves and the Big Bad Pig'. They will be sequencing the events in the story and planning their own version of the story.
The children will continue using Scratch and learning new skills - Say something and change colour. There is a link to scratch on our computing page.
We are continuing with our WWII topic - We will be discussing how rationing affected people's lives.
RE is for Class 2 with Mrs Collis on Wednesday. The children will be learning about Christianity in RE this half term.
In Music, we will be looking at music for Propaganda - 'White Cliffs of Dover' and 'In the Mood'. The children will be singing.

Please send coats in to school with the children every day; they will be outside for playtimes unless it is raining heavily.
Can you please help your child to practise their weekly spellings, really thinking about the rule. Encourage them to think of extra words which follow the rule.
The children enjoyed the hour of code maze, click on the picture to play at home.
Please encourage the children to continue to play on Times Tables Rockstars. All children are set to practise the 10 times table initially and once the children are accurate and quick enough the website automatically introduces extra multiplication and linked division facts. We hope the children enjoy practising their times tables using Times Tables Rockstars.

The children will need their indoor PE kits on a Wednesday and outdoor kits on a Friday. In Year 2, the children need an indoor kit (pumps, shorts and house coloured t-shirt) and an outdoor kit (trainers, jogging bottoms and jumper).
