Y2 Friday 6th November 2026– Looking Back & Forth

Looking back: This week we have enjoyed our new text -The River- and the lovely illustrations. In maths, we have explored related facts using the number bonds to 10 that we already know to find numbers to 100. In science, we have discussed objects and the materials they are made from.

Reminders

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

Reading books are changed on Mondays. 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 10 house points and see their face on the ‘Reading Challenge Wall of Fame’. Please record any reading at home in reading diaries so we can track their progress.
