Year 2 Home Learning - Shumba's Big Adventure Part 1

Year 2 Update

Year 2 have worked as a team to finish a tricky jigsaw of the world. It has 250 pieces! They used an atlas to work out where the countries are with the help of Sunny the Meerkat. Miss Croud played a game with us to spot the continents and countries, and we found Uganda straight away! 

Year 2 Home Learning - The Tiger Who Came For Tea

Friday 15th May

Hello Year 1 we hope you have been enjoying the sunshine today.

We just wanted to share some of the fantastic work that has been happening at home and at school.

WOW!

 

 

 

Soon you should be getting your next Home Learning activities.  We have added a few more activities so that you can choose to leave some until half term.



Year 2 Update

Good afternoon everyone!

We have had lots of fun at school this week. At the start of the week we really enjoyed reading the 'Flip Flap Jungle' book. Miss Jones read out the description of each animal and we had to guess which animal she was describing which was great fun. We also enjoyed creating our own animals and coming up with interesting names for them. I have put a picture of one of the pieces of work below for you to see. In maths we have been brushing up on our mental maths skills and practised our doubles and halves to 20. We then went on to solve simple adding number sentences that involved 'near doubles', such as 4+5 or 10 + 11.

We hope you are all well and staying safe!

He's at it again!

Here's a little something to keep you smiling on this sunny Tuesday.   Kick back, relax and enjoy Mr Jones reading another exciting story.   Don't forget to leave a comment so he knows you've been listening!

Year 2 Update

Hello Year 2!

We are celebrating V E Day today with lots of fun activities at school. We have learnt what VE day means and why we are celebrating, as it is 75 years since the end of World War II. We all went out to the playground at 11 o'clock for a 2 minute silence to remember those who lost their lives.  We are having a picnic lunch today so we have been very busy painting our bunting and created our own flags to wave and celebrate!

We hope you are enjoying the sunshine. Don't forget to email the year 2 teachers as we love seeing all the fun things you have been up to!

Year 1 Update

Hello Year 1!

Miss Oliver here! I hope everyone is keeping safe and enjoying lots of fun activities at home.

The year one team has really enjoyed seeing all of your amazing work recently – well done for all of your efforts!

In our last home learning pack, we told you about our new way of practising music. You can all now log in to Yumu on Charanga and see the songs and music we would like you to learn.

https://charanga.com/yumu

We are very lucky and have found lots of songs about the stories we have been reading and writing about.

Keep checking your Yumu page – we will be adding new songs every Monday to go with your home learning packs!

While the Yumu lessons focus on learning to sing a song, why not challenge yourself and see if you can make any instruments to play along with? See what you can find around your house to make music with!

Me, Miss Curme and Mrs Probert are looking forward to seeing all of your lovely work and hopefully seeing you all again soon! Stay safe everybody!

Year 2 Update

Hello Year 2!

We have had a very fun week so far with Miss Croud and Mrs Slater! We have read Handa's Surprise and it inspired us to write a diary entry about our journey to Akeyo's village. Sunny the Meerkat read them and he was extremely happy with our work! Do you like his new outfit? 

We have also been learning about Kampala in Uganda. We pretended to be pilots and worked out our flight path from England to Uganda using an Atlas. We had lots of fun and Miss Croud enjoyed being a passenger on our aeroplane. 

Don't forget to send us your work as we would love to see it!

Year 2 Update

Hi everyone!

We have had lots of fun in Year 2 this week with Miss Jones and Miss Davis. We've been doing lots of estimating in maths and in English we've written some really interesting zoo stories with all sorts of animals that need some help from the vet!

We've also created some super animal prints in art - you'll have a chance to do this at home in the next couple of weeks! In science we have learnt about prey and predators and researched different animals to discover how they have adapted to be successful at this.

Take care and stay safe!
