Year 2 CW and CF 2019 - 2020

This half term, our topic is 'Grand Designs!'  In literacy, We are reading the story of 'The Three Little Wolves and the Big Bad Pig!'  The children are learning how to write subordinate clauses using words such as when, if and but.  The children will then plan and write their own versions of the story using a comic strip that they will draw and design themselves.  In maths, we will be looking at measures, such as length, height and weight and identifying and adding amounts of money.  The children are also being introdcued to fractions, leanring havles, quarters and eventually thirds of shapes and amounts,

In Design and Technology, the children are designing and creating their very own 3D bedrooms using cardboard boxes!  They will be making their own 3D furniture using nets of shapes and even designing their own wallpaper using repeaing patterns on the computer.  In topic, we are focusing on Geography this half term, leanring all about the features of villages, towns cities and the different types of buildings and houses, such as detached houses.

Just a reminder to conitnue reading the books sent home each week.  A spelling test will be sent home every Friday and completed in school each week on a Thursday.  Lastly, a maths activity is sent home each for children to rehease with their grown up.  This is linked to the learning at school but isn't marked.

Best wishes,

The Year Two Team :)
