Friday 9th February

Hello
Our final week, this half term, has been a very busy one in Year 2. 

In English, the children have been really enjoying their new text 'The Minpins' by Roald Dahl.  This is a classic primary school text which I am sure many of you will know.  The children have been working hard writing character descriptions and using the text to develop their vocabulary and words choice.  Well done year 2 a super start to our new unit.

In mathematics, we have been looking at multiplication and division and children have been learning about arrange of different aspects, including arrays, doubling and halving, and how to use and apply this knowledge.  The are doing very well, so please keep practising their times tables over the holiday; this extra support really helps them.

Also this week, alongside the other curriculum areas, we have now finished making our whole class story pop-up book (as mentioned last week); I know the children are really proud of the book!  We hope you enjoy the pictures of the finished article...

Finally, after our first half term, Mrs Murch and I would like to thank: the year 2 families for all their ongoing support since the start of January; the year 2 children for all their hard work and effort over the past weeks; and all the school staff for their help and guidance. 
​
We would both like to wish you all a very restful half term break, and we look forward to seeing you all after the holiday.
Mrs Murch and Mr Legg
