Year 2 Weekly Review
Weekly Review
Maths - This week expanded our multiplication knowledge by counting in tens and fives. Just like last week we focused on understanding the different parts of the equations and identifying the factors and the product. We started to look at the links between the multiples of five and ten.
English - This week, we turned our attention further north as we learnt facts about the world's fastest land animal. We used our sentence stacking to edit and improve on Mr Davidson’s work while making our own non-chronological reports about the Cheetah. Next week, we will head south again as the children use all they have learnt so far to write their own non-chronological reports about the magnificent Emperor Penguin.
Paths - This week we discussed how we could make friends and what to do if we are feeling lonely. We also talked about the uncomfortable emotion, shy. This is when we want to be around other people but also feel afraid of what it could mean.
Extra - Thank you to the parents who supported 2D on our trip to Pizza Express. 2M will be going on their trip in a couple of weeks so we will be sending out information soon.
