Maths

We started the year by looking at place value and what each digit in a number represents. We have now moved onto learning about addition and subtraction with a strong focus on number bonds and how they can help us with our calculations. 

English

We have looked at two different texts in Year 2 so far. The first book ‘The colour monster’, has been linked to our emotional check in and we have also completed reading and writing activities linked to our feelings.

More recently, we have explored a text called ‘The bear and the piano’ with an emphasis on how to write a description of a setting or a character. The children have also written wonderful versions of the story.

P.E 

This half term we have had P.E lessons on a Monday morning and Thursday afternoon. On a Monday, we are learning about games skills with James Lofthouse and on a Thursday we are completely stamina based activities such as skip to be fit and box to be fit.
