Family discussion questions:

Next week we will start to look at the features of castles. Have you ever visited a castle as a family? What did you see? What was it like?

Looking forward:

Next week we will learn the features of an “invention narrative”. In maths, we will be learning about reading information in block diagrams and in science, we will discuss food groups and what makes a healthy diet.

PE is on Fridays! Please ensure school PE kit is worn.

Reading books are changed on Tuesdays. The reading folder is needed in school every day. Thank you.

Please continue to read every night as this underpins so much learning in Year 2. For every consecutive 14 days of reading the children will receive 6 house points and see their face on the ‘Reading Challenge Wall of Fame’. Well done to the 2 children that completed the challenge again this week. Please record when you read with your child in their reading diaries so we can track their progress and see who has completed the challenge this term!

Have a great weekend,

Mr Warhurst
