In English, we have been looking at subordinating conjunctions and how they can help us extend our sentences by giving reasons. This is going to help us when we create our persuasive writing on why we need a school garden. We then created our for and against reasons for this argument ready to write our pieces next week.

 

For maths, we have focused on arithmetic style questions and reasoning questions to help us with strategies for answering these types of questions. It was a good chance to recap all the learning we have done so far in year 2!

In history, we answered our big question 'What was the impact of the Great Fire of London'. The children used all their knowledge from autumn term to create posters and mind maps to showcase their answers.

Our nativity rehearsals have been going brilliantly, and we are excited to show you all next week! We are still missing some costumes, so please make sure you have brought them in as we will be doing a dress rehearsal on Monday.

 

Star of the Week is….

Camilla! For always demonstrating our school promises.

 

Reminders:

• PE days for Term 2 are Wednesday (hockey) and Thursday (team games).
• Please bring in reading books and reading records every day and read 5 times a week at home. Remember an adult needs to sign the reading records.
• Spellings will come home on Monday. Please practice these every day at home ready for our spelling test on Fridays.

Have a wonderful weekend!
