Year 2

Weekly Update - Friday 4th April 2025

A Summary of our learning:

This week has been a glorious week in the sun- filled with lots of Easter activities. In maths, the children have been consolidating their knowledge of 3D shapes by making shapes from their nets. In English, the children were applying their science knowledge (habitats, food chains, animal’s diets) by writing a fact file about a chosen animal. The children presented this writing in a 3D triorama (which you will see next term!).

Our learning after half term:

English	The children will learn a new talk story based on The Elves and the Shoemaker.
Spelling (whole class)	Words ending -el: squirrel, camel, trowel, jewel, tunnel, towel
Spelling* (Mrs H’s group)	Phase 5 sounds: assessment for gaps
Maths	The children will be learning about fractions.
Science	The children will learn more about plants and that they grow from a seed or a bulb.
