Welcome back to our Spring term!

This half-term is busy for Year 2, with the new topics and continuing to work on our resilience and independence, getting them ready for the term ahead!

In maths, we are working on money – looking at different coins and notes, giving change and making the correct amount. The children enjoyed using money to make different amounts with their partners and seeing who could find different ways of making the same amount using different coins!

In English, we are reading the book 'Grandad's Camper' and the children have been thinking about what adventure they would like to go on, where they would like to go and what they would like to do! They will be writing their own sequel to the story, thinking about how they could create memories of this adventure with their family!

In history, we are looking at the Magnificent Monarchs – all monarchs from Alfred the Great to King Charles III. The children created a real life timeline of all 57 monarchs, while also thinking about the years they reigned and what they did during those years!

In science, we are learning about Human Survival – thinking about the life cycle of humans, what we need to survive and how to keep ourselves clean and healthy!

I have attached the topic web and family learning below. If you complete any of the family learning activities, please let me know; I would love to see what the children, and you, have created!

If there is anything I can help with, please don't hesitate to contact me or catch me at the door!
