Hello Year 2s!
I hope you’ve had a good weekend. I’m really sorry about setting the outdoor art task on Friday when the weather was so bad! Well done if you still went out and made some art work but if you did something different, fair enough! It was pretty miserable!

Friday’s are a little bit different!
It’s our Love of Reading session today. I’d like you to sit down with a good book and enjoy reading together. You might share a book or your child may want to read independently. Talk about what you’re reading and ask some questions.
I said last week that the maths lesson Friday will always be the Friday Challenges on the website but I’ve found a lesson that looks good. It’s about position and direction. Click here for the lesson.
Our final Friday lesson is the art project inspired by Andy Goldsworthy’s artwork. Click here for the video which introduces the project.

Hello Year 2s!
It’s the end of the first week and it has flown by for me! It’s just a shame that the sunshine seems to have disappeared. Thanks very much for letting me know how the children are getting on. I hope you have a great weekend and I’ll be with you again on Monday!

Friday’s are a little bit different!
The reading lesson is what we call a Love of Reading session in school. I’d like you to sit down with a good book and enjoy reading together. You might share a book or your child may want to read independently. Talk about what you’re reading and ask some questions.
The maths lesson comes from the BBC Daily Lessons. Each Friday they have some Friday Challenges. There’s only a couple for Year 2 so feel free to look at the Year 3 ones as well. The idea of these is that you work collaboratively as a family to solve them. Click here for the link.
Our final Friday lesson is a new art project about British artist, Andy Goldsworthy. Click here for a video which introduces the project.
