Year 2 Weekly Updates on Learning 2023 - 2024

Friday 15th September

In English this week we have continued to read The Hodgeheg by Dick king Smith. We used adjectives to describe the park and everything that Max found in it. We acted out Max trying to cross the road and wrote sentences about how he felt and following his accident we had great fun writing mixed up sentences.

This week in Maths we have continued to work on place value. We have partitioned numbers into tens and ones using a part part whole model.

We then said

My whole is 17

One part is 10

One part is 7

Together I have 17.

We then used this to create addition equations.

10+7=17

We repeated all the above using numbers to 30.

In RE this week we have read  Psalm 139 we hear how God created us and was there at our very beginning in life.

We responded to the psalm  with You loved me and you know me.

We also wrote our own prayers to say when we start each new day.

Friday 8th September

In English this week we have been learning about the Hodgeheg. We thought about what we already knew about hedgehogs and what we would like to find out. We also looked at suffix rules for adding ‘s’. For example, dog- dogs, cat- cats. Our homework this week is reading a Bug Club book.

We then said

Together I have 17.

We repeated this for all teen numbers and some in the twenties too.

In RE this week we have been thinking about times where we have started something new and how it made us felt.
