Welcome back! I hope you had a lovely restful break and are ready for another jam packed half term.

This week: (Wk bg 16.4.24)

In maths we have been learning all about mass. We began the week by comparing weights followed by working with balance scales followed by swiftly moving on to measuring using scales. 

In English we have started our new core text which is 'Lila and the secret of rain'. We have spent this week exploring the setting, characters and the emotions the characters may experience. 

In guided reading we have continued with 'Dave Pigeon', we are on Chapter 7 and hope to finish it in the next few weeks. 

In phonics (Which is reflected in the spellings) 

We have; 

Reviewed words spelt with ‘a’ but ‘o’ sound

Reviewed words spelt with ‘o’ but ‘u’ sound. 

Reviewed Words end in ‘ve’ sound ‘v’.

Reviewed a few year 2 Common Exception Words

Over the last few weeks I have tried to vary the homework as well as the amount of homework, please let me know your thoughts. 

My email is anisah@spmillend.herts.sch.uk
