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 outside games on Monday afternoons for this half term. Class 2 will be doing PE on Wednesday this week. Both classes will be having PE on Friday too.
We will continue our 'Living Things' topic this week, the children will write rules for respecting living things in their environment.
In Maths this week, the children will be rounding numbers to the nearest 10, adding 2-digit numbers and subtracting 2-digit numbers using a number line.
In English the children will write an explanation for how to look after a tiger. We will use the story 'There's a Tiger in the Garden' as the stimulus.
Class 2a will use wire to create a sculpture of a tree.
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 Monday. 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).
