A great first week back after the half term break.
In English we are looking at stories with an imaginary setting. Our first book is 'Where the Wild Things Are'. The children have been making predictions about the story and creating word banks to describe on of the 'Wild Things'.
In maths we have continued with our work on addition and subtraction. We have been adding and subtracting a single 1 digit number from 2 and some 3 digit numbers where there is no crossing of the tens. We have also been adding by making 10.
In our topic work we are continuing our work on 'Emergency 999'. This week we have looked at what happened after the Fire of London and what changes were made when rebuilding the city.
Thank you to all those parents listened to their read child read during the half term break. Can I just remind everyone of the importance of regular reading at home, it really is vital at this point in the children's learning. Your support with this is much appreciated.
Have a great weekend.

Well we have reached the end of the first half term of the academic year.
What a wonderful few weeks it has been!
The children have all worked so hard and settled really well back in to the school routines.
Have a wonderful half term break and I will see you all in November.

Well the highlight of the week has definitely been our Fire of London Workshop.
The children enjoyed a full day of 'hands on' learning delivered by Sue, a Forest School Practitioner. They took part in some drama, worked together to create their own 1666 London and finally watched it burn. We also had some time for a game at the end passing the fire buckets. It was such a great way to reinforce our learning so far.
In maths we have continued to work on our number bonds. We have recapped on bonds to 10 and 20 and also started to look at bonds to 100 (using multiples of 10).
In English we have been preparing for our diary entries as Samuel Pepys. We will continue with this piece of writing next week.
Thank you to everyone who attended Parent's Evening on Tuesday and Wednesday. It was a full turn out and lovely to talk to you all about how well your children have settled in to Year 2.
Have a wonderful weekend!
