It's not long now until we break up for Easter! Thank you for all your help and ongoing support with home learning, additional worksheets and volunteering to supervise us on days out. We are so nearly there until we all deserve a couple of weeks rest. 

Please find attached this week's spellings for next Monday's spelling test (15.04.24). For this week, your child has one spelling activity sheet (to be completed independently) and a Maths revision activity to practice their understanding of multiplication word problems, which shouldn't take your child too long to finish and complete (the majority of it) independently. Please continue with reading at home as well as Doodlemaths and Spelling Shed for a few minutes at a time. I shall be looking at top Doodlers again this week as it is the end of half-term so keep up the hard work! 

Please do encourage your child to write anything they have been up to during their Easter holidays. It's always lovely to hear the exciting places they have visited and this practice keeps their learning fresh.  

Have a great week last week!

Please find attached the photos for Year 2's Science Week. We had so much fun carrying out investigations, meeting scientists and competing in competitions.

Please find attached this week's spellings for next Monday's spelling test (18.03.24). For this week, your child has one spelling activity sheet (to be completed independently) and a Maths revision activity about dividing by 2, which shouldn't take your child too long to finish and complete (the majority of it) independently. Please continue with reading at home as well as Doodlemaths and Spelling Shed for a few minutes at a time.

Well done to the top Doodlers last week:

Mabel, Elijah, Christopher, Matilda, Lucy, Alice, Agatha, Ishbel, Elsie, Edward, Joseph, Arabella, Eliza, Freddie, Alfie and Amber. 

I shall look out for the next set of top Doodlers on the last week of half-term! Keep up the hard work. 

Again, most of these online tasks are set so your child is able to complete these by themselves.

Have a great week!

Please find attached this week's spellings for next Monday's spelling test (11.03.24). Due to the confusion on my part, the children will only need to go onto Speling Shed to practice the spellings that have the sound 'o' in but are spelt with 'a' - e.g  'want'. As the children already received the spelling sheet for these spellings, I won't send home the sheet again, the children can either use Spelling Shed or the sheet already stuck in their book and continue to practice using those words for next Monday.

Please continue with reading at home as well as Doodlemaths as I shall be looking at top Doodlers again for the las t week of half-term . Again, most of these online tasks are set so your child is able to complete these by themselves. 

Have a great week!
