This week the children in Year 2 have looked at the story ‘Elmer on Stilts’.
The children acted out the story and created a story map.
They also wrote a setting description and a character description.
Today the children re-wrote the story. They have learned how to use paragraphs!
Well done Year 2!
Yesterday, we learned how to share objects equally. We worked in teams to share different objects into groups of two. We then counted how many objects were in each group.
After practising sharing objects using concrete manipulatives, we were then able to share pictorially.
Miss Stainton’s class have been busy using their maths skills in topic lessons so far this week. We have recorded the average temperatures and amount of rainfall from a variety of countries so that we can compare it to the weather in Mexico. The information has helped us to answer a wide range of questions – this is where our maths knowledge came in handy! We will then be using this information to plot line graphs.
We all arrived at school this morning super excited for our visit from Zoolab! We have been looking forward to this for weeks because we knew we would have chance to see, and even touch, some of our visitors! We were all very brave and loved getting up close to these animals and insects… Look at some of these photographs which show how much fun we had! What an amazing morning!
