Year 2
Weekly Update Friday 12th July 2024
A Summary of Our learning:
I sit here, writing my last newsletter to you with damp eyes- not quite ready to say goodbye to you and your fantastic children. We have been busy celebrating the children this week in their leavers assemblies- and I think you will agree that the children were just amazing. In maths, the children were revising pictograms. They read scales, answered questions and even made their own question to collect data with. In English, the children loved making a triorama- which is a 3D fact file.
