Reading: In Year 2, children should read for at least 15/20 minutes every night and talk about the book.

This will help with understanding the text and learning new words.

We have spent a lot of time preparing for our assembly about God's Wonderful World.

The children have been writing all the things they love about our world and nature. They have also written prayers, designed posters/handprints and done some singing.

We have recapped things we learnt about in spelling, grammar and punctuation.

Our current topic is Place Value.

The children have been learning to partition two-digit numbers in different ways. We also learnt to use the greater than >, less than < and equals signs = in number sentences.

R.E.

The children chose their favourite piece of scripture about the Holy Spirit, then produced some beautiful art work go with it.

P.E

 We have been busy learning the dance moves for this years 'Dance from the Heart' celebration.

Year 2 have picked up the moves very quickly and bring so much energy to the dance.
