Week beginning 5.5.17

Date: 7th May 2017 @ 11:50am

We had another super week in year 2. Pirate day was a wonderful day. Thank you for your help with costumes, materials and for making the pirate ships in the afternoon! It was great fun.

Well done Ollie for being our star speller. This week we looked at the grapheme ea where it makes different sounds e.g. when it makes the /ai/ sound in 'great.'

In English this week we have been inventing our stories, writing a sequel to the Night Pirates! In maths we have focussed on multiplication and division.

In PE we continued with cricket and had a super game at the end, while in computing we made videos using Lego Movie maker. Lots of the children chose to make movies about pirate ships battling using the pirate ships we created on Tuesday! In science we made food chains.

Next week, Mrs Pulle will be taking the class full time, as baby Elsie will be arriving on Tuesday! I will try to make an appearance early next week with her so that everyone can meet her. I will be in on Monday morning before leaving for an appointment.

If you have any questions or queries, please get in touch.

Mr McAulay
