Math Calculations in Year 2

Weekly update: Friday 12th July 2024

 In class, some of the things we have been learning about are:

• In Maths, we have recapping our knowledge on money, recapping the value of amounts and what different coins mean. We have been making amounts making sure we using coins or notes, remember Class 2 there is no 3ps!
• In English, we wrote blurbs for our stories, looking at a variety of books in our book corner. We have also been recapping our knowledge about how to use question marks. We thought about when we would need to write one in a sentence, looked for questions in a  text and then wrote our own question about Year 3.
• In PE, we have been in full preparation for Sports day: shotput, running races and throwing. The big day is next week and even though we aren’t all excited about it, I know Class 2s team work and support for one another will shine.
• In RE, we continued to learn about Islam. We learnt about Harmony. All things created in harmony (muslim); Allah wants them to stay this way. By belonging to a worldwide community (ummah), Muslims help each other to live in harmony and to follow the straight path (shariah). Follow the straight path (shariah) and everything will stay in harmony (muslim), as Allah intended it to be.
• In French, we recapped our knowledge of numbers and played games as a class.
• In Science, we learnt about George Washington Carver who was a practical scientist and inventor. We now know that he helped farmers in America to grow more crops by showing them the benefits of growing different things at different times and of using fields for different crops. We also looked at our seed experiment and evaluated our findings.
• In PSHE, we thought a bit more about money. We know that people have choices about what they do with their money and that money can be saved for a use at a future time. We shared our thoughts about how we might feel when we spend money on different things.

Have a lovely weekend,

Home Learning 

Maths:

• https://login.mathletics.com/ - You will find work has been set to consolidate the learning that has been happening in class.
• Do not forget to get rocking and use https://play.ttrockstars.com/ It is a fantastic way to learn all the Times Tables. At the moment we are not doing this in class, but it is absolutely fine if you want to do some at home!

English:

• If your child has read a book already or finds any book ‘easy’ then this is GREAT! Repetitive reading will support children’s comprehension and impact their spelling. Children will be changing their own books and if they pick a book they have read before then they should find it easier to read and be confident when reading.
