Y2 Friday 6th March 2026– Looking Back & Forth

Looking back:  This week we explored the vocabulary in Grandad’s Island and used this in our own writing.  In maths, we have continued working with money and began writing a recount of The Great Fire of London.

Family discussion questions:

Next week we will be learning more about measuring using centimetres and metres. Do you have any equipment for measuring length at home? Can you find objects to measure?  

Looking forward:

Next week we will begin to plan our own return narratives. In science, we will learn about different types of habitats and  we will visit the Mother’s Day Shop on Tuesday morning.

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

Reading books are changed on Tuesday. 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’. Well done to the 5 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
