Summer Term Week 5
18 May 2023
This week we've been hard at work learning about analogue time and have written recounts.
If you have a spare shoebox or two at home could you please send these in for some Art/DT activities we'll be completing. Any additional boxes sent in will be shared among the class so that everyone can individually make a habitat using the shoebox.
If you haven't already done so, please do read our newsletter. The Y2 SATs will take place week beginning Monday 22nd May. These assessements will focus on:
- Reading Comprehension (two papers)
- Grammar, Punctuation and Spelling (two papers)
- Maths (two papers)
Writing will be assessed using the writing evidence found in children's English books.
The judgements made will be shared with you in your child's end of year report.
English
This week we have written recounts about the Coronation picnic held in school. We used prepositions and the past tense to ensure our text was coherent.
Maths
We have been learning about time. So far, we have learned to tell the time to intervals of five minutes, which includes o'clock, quarter past and to, half past and times such as twenty-five to.
Notices
- As we are now in the Summer term, children should be wearing their Summer uniforms.
- Please ensure that all items of clothing are clearly labelled with your child's name. We have increasing numbers of children losing items of clothing and looking for them will no longer be done by staff. It will be your child's responsibility to locate missing items of clothing outside of lesson time.
- PE will still be on Thursday afternoons this term, so please ensure your child is wearing their PE kit to school on this day.
- Times Table Rockstars challenges have been set for every child (2, 5 and 10 times tables). It is expected that children log in each week several times and practise. Your child's login information is stuck in their reading record.
