What another busy and enjoyable week we have had in Year 2!

Last Friday, we took part in our whole-school RE Day, where we learnt about the Jewish festival of Rosh Hashanah. The children enjoyed tasting some traditional foods and thinking about the idea of a fresh start. We discussed why saying sorry, making positive choices and starting again are important. At the end of the day, we came together as a whole school to share and celebrate our learning.

In English, we have continued our work based on Rapunzel. This week, we have been developing our understanding of conjunctions, adjectives and verbs and thinking carefully about how we can use these to make our writing more interesting. 

In Maths, we have been learning about flexible partitioning. The children have enjoyed using practical resources, including Base 10, to explore the different ways that numbers can be partitioned. They have worked hard to explain their thinking and recognise that numbers can be split in more than one way.

In Computing, we have been learning about the different parts of a computer. The children used Sketchpad to draw and identify different computer components, combining their computing knowledge with their creative skills.

It was also lovely to see many of you on Wednesday. Thank you for taking the time to come along. Please find the PowerPoint with the information shared at the meeting: Year 2 information for you to refer back to.
