The Year 2 class value is Be Kind
Friday 11th October 2024
In maths this week we have been learning more about counting and placing 10s and 1s along a number line from 0-100. We then moved on to estimating where numbers between 0-100 would be along blank number lines, using our knowledge of place value to make our estimates more accurate
In English, we have now read to the end of Troll Swap. We wrote diaries in role as Tabitha and have begun to map out our own version of the troll swap story. The children have been working hard to include expanded noun phrases, subordination and coordination in all of their writing this week.
In science this week we have been looking at and comparing the different stages of the human lifecycle. We have also been learning more about what animals, including humans needs to survive. We worked in pairs to research what a chameleon, stick insect or budgerigar would need to survive.
In history we have been looking at how housing has changed though time along Newton Road. We are looking forward to going out in the local area for a history walk next week.
Have a great weekend!

On Friday afternoon in art we have been exploring the idea of ‘artists as collectors’. We used our sketchbooks to make visual lists as we studied the work of both Andy Goldsworthy and Alice Fox

We’ve had another great week in Year 2.
In maths we have been representing numbers in different ways, counting in jumps of 10 and have begun to look at tens and ones in a two digit number.
In English we have been consolidating our knowledge of nouns and adjectives. We started to use simple noun phrases in our writing.
We have been amazed by some of the children’s knowledge of animals in science - particularly when talking about animal classification.
Have a great weekend!
