Hi Everyone

Swallows have had another great week together in Year Two. The children are settling well. We are still waiting for the reading diaries to arrive; they are being chased. We have explained to the children that they can change their class library books whenever they need to. RWI books will come home each Friday as always. Please continue to read daily with your child to encourage fluency and comprehension. 

Next week in Writing lessons we are continuing to use noun phrases to improve our description. The children are exploring with a variety of adjectives and thinking carefully about how to use powerful vocabulary.

In Maths, we are embedding our understanding of how to partition 2 digit numbers thinking carefully about the value of each digit and how to represent them in a variety of ways. We will also be learning our ten times table.

In RE we will be exploring how Christians understand God through a variety of Bible stories (eg Moses and the Burning Bush) and thinking about what God means to us.

The children will continue to explore the properties of materials and carry out an investigation to see which one is the most durable. The children will use their Scientific skills of enquiry and observation.

The spellings for this week are:

after, again, any, beautiful and bath

We have our fantastic Titanic workshop in school on 6^th October, payment for this is required on our School Gateway system please.

Our PE lessons are a Monday and a Thursday this half term. The children look really smart and cosy in their PE uniforms. 

As always, if you have any questions or queries, please don’t hesitate to talk to myself or Mrs Southern.

Have a great week.

Many thanks

Mrs Rice and Mrs Southern
