This week in Year 2

English

This week we started our new novel 'Greta and the Giants' by Zoe Tucker. We have written setting descriptions for the forest using great vocabulary, written a WANTED poster for the Giants and speech bubbles for their feelings. 

Maths

This week we finished our measuring unit and started place value.

RE

This week we discussed all the scripture we have read and explored so far and created a story map.

Forest School

We went on a circular walk around our top field and noticed lots of changes. If you are on a walk and you trip over a root or something falls from a tree near you it might be the woodland Boggards, very mischievous creatures from folklore.We collected natural materials which we used to make a Boggart. We used clay on a stick to make the head of the Boggart.

Science

We planted seeds in different environments. We have our own bean diaries where we are writing the changes each day.

Reminders
