Today has felt like a very cosy type of day and we have all loved wearing our PJs and lounge wear. Thank you for supporting Children in Need.
Fairy Tales is the focus in English for the next three weeks. We have started the unit exploring the original version of Rapunzel as well as reading a slightly different version too! Our descriptive writing has been out in full force and we have been writing some super sentences.
Knowing our multiples of 10 has helped us in our maths this week. We know that any number ending with a zero is a multiple of 10, even 1,000,000! We used this understanding to explore numbers to 100, identifying which multiple is the nearest. Any number with 5 ones means you go on to the next multiple. We have also been regrouping 2-digit numbers to help with our addition.
Using adjectives in Science, we were able to identify and classify features of different habitats and the animals that might live in them. We worked hard to use more scientific adjectives rather than the general ones we know, like damp, moist, dry, humid, dense, vast.
We spent some time acknowledging anti-bullying week and Scarlet Class thought about different acts of kindness that they are going to try and complete throughout the rest of this term. We hope you can spot some of these acts at home and in clubs outside of school too! We also designed superheros with super powers to deal with bullies.
Have a great weekend.
Best wishes
The Year 2 Team
