This week, our learning has been full of heroes and plants! In Writing, we’ve continued working our superheroes, writing a super story about a meeting between them and their arch nemesis. We’ve been focussing on making sure we check for our must dos:
- Capital letters to start sentences
- Capital letters for proper nouns (names)
- Full stops to end sentences
- Finger spaces
Here’s a story for you to enjoy:
We recapped our understanding of chronology at the beginning of the week, making a timeline of a school day. Can your child tell you what’s on the rest of the timeline?
Then, we moved on to learn about two heroes from History: Leonora Cohen and Nelson Mandela. It’s been really interesting hearing the children’s views on the battles these people fought. Discuss what the children know and think over the weekend.
Our plant learning has become real this week as we got to plant sunflowers! Each of us has our own flower to grow, making sure we provide it with the light, water and warmth that it needs.
I’ve really enjoyed my second week in Year Two. It’ll be time to welcome Mr Parker back on Monday. We’re all looking forward to it.
