Year 2 are really enjoying our new book, Harry And The Jaggedy Daggers by Jan Fearnley.

We have made predictions about the characters, setting, storyline and ending and produced great story maps.

The children also wrote a description of Harry and wrote in role as one of the jaggedy daggers.

Maths

The children have been completing arithmetic and reasoning quizzes this week.

Our Bible story was The Good Samaritan.

The children retold the story on story fans and beautifully illustrated them.

We also looked closely at understanding the scripture and how we can use it in our daily lives.
