Green Class 2020-2021

 

The Start of Year 2

Green class have been brilliant since being back and have really impressed me with all of their learning. In phonics we have looked at the sounds ay, ee, igh, ow,oo,oo,ar,or, air, ir. You may want to practice these with your child at home using the sound mat attached in the email. 

I would like to say congratulations to all the children in Green Class this week. They were all given a superstar as they have all work so hard and have taken Year 2 in their stride! 


Pond dipping at Forest Schools



Mud kitchen!


We have been learning to read and write numbers in words. We matched the numbers and words and played snap. 

We have looked at less than and greater than. 

We have worked on recognising tens and ones. 

Ordering numbers from smallest to largest. 


Green class have enjoyed playing on the play equipment at lunch and break!


Free flow activities



In English we have been learning to write in sentences and have looked at the story Grandad's Island. We are leaning the text map and will be planning and writing our own stories. 

In Topic we have looked at picture frames and have designed and planned our own. We will be using these plans to make picture frames. Thank you so much for sending a photo of your child from Lockdown/summer holidays. 

We have also done yoga and PE gymnastics this week.



Next weeks spellings are: chair, short, sharp, me, she, we, no, you, your. Please encourage your child to practice these!

Thank you as always for your continued support!

Some extra things to try this week :)


All you need for the Alphabet Yoga challenge is a small space, your body and your imagination!
  • Can you hold your body in a pose to look like each CAPITAL letter of the alphabet?
  • Start with A and then B, C, D and so on. Try and hold each shape for 5 seconds before going onto the next letter.
  • Can you complete the alphabet?
INCREASE THE DIFFICULTY
  • Can you transition smoothly between each letter shape?




Thank you all for all of your hard work each week. Looking forward to seeing next week's learning!
