The start of Year 2

The start of Year 2 

We have been looking at our homes and the local area in our topic 'Through the door'. we went for a local walk. 

 We used the walk to inform our understanding of maps. We have been using different things in our classroom to make a map of the roads we walked down. We have been thinking about road names and landmarks.

In English we looked at the story Door, this is a wordless picture book we acted out the story. Green class then have done some work around adjectives and speech. We will be writing this story soon. 

  Thank you to everyone that came to drop and read. This really helps the children to enjoy reading. Drop and read is aimed to encourage children to read for pleasure. Please try to ensure your child is heard read at least 3 time a week.

 In Maths we have been looking at place value. We have been thinking about tens and ones. Below is the number 42 made using numicon and lego in tens and ones. We have also been ordering numbers.

Thank you everyone for making the start of term so lovely. A special thanks to all the helpers that come on our walk.
