Hola!
Spanish week was fantastic and we all enjoyed our flamenco dancing on Friday.
Maybe you have had some demonstrations this weekend!
On
Friday we will be going on our end of year trip to Gulliver’s World! Please
arrive at school at the normal time on Friday and we hope to arrive back at
school at approximately 3.30pm.
Please
send a packed lunch in a disposable bag, clearly labelled, no glass bottles or
fizzy drinks please. Should the weather be lovely and sunny (fingers crossed!)
please ensure that your child has a sun hat, covered shoulders and sun cream.
Likewise, if the weather is bad, please send them in appropriate outdoor
clothing ( waterproof coat and shoes). Your child can bring up to £3.00 to
spend.
We
are looking forward to a fantastically exciting day!
English
In
English this week we will be looking at the book “The Magic Finger” by Roald
Dahl.
We will
discuss the importance of the blurb, freeze frame events in the story and
discuss what it would be like to have a magic finger!
At the end of
the week the children will then be able to write their own adventure story!
Can you have
a look at some of your books at home and see if they have a blurb? Does the
blurb make you want to read the book?
Maths
This
week in maths we will be doubling multiples of 5, halving multiples of 10 and
using near doubles.
We
will also be looking at the relationship between halves and quarters.
Some
websites to help:-
Science
This week we will be continuing our new topic on
Living Things.
We will be asking the question
“Can I find some plants and minibeasts and name them?”
We will be venturing
outside to go on a minibeast hunt! We will carefully collect the minibeasts and
note where they were found. We will try to work out why the minibeasts were
found where they were.
We will be careful to
return the minibeasts to their homes once we have observed them.
Can you have a minibeast hunt in your garden or at
the park? Can you identify the creatures that you find?
Make sure that you put them back in their home once
you have observed them.
Topic
We will be continuing our
topic The Football World Cup, which the children are really enjoying!
This week we will be continuing
to look at the maths involved in the World Cup!
We will be looking at
which teams have won in the past and completing a tally chart to show the data.
We will then represent the data in a pictogram!
Reminders
Sports Day
The new date for Sports Day is Friday 11th July. We apologise for any inconvenience
caused. It will be held in the afternoon
for our Foundation Stage and Key Stage One children. We would love to see you
all there, so all we can do now is to hope for good weather! If you haven't already
done so, could you please check that your child's pumps fit them, and that they
have appropriate school PE kit.
Sun cream
And finally, we are delighted to be able to request that
children bring a hat and sun cream into school for the rest of the term! The
weather has been absolutely beautiful and we are optimistic that it will
continue, so it is important that our little ones are protected from the sun.
If you apply a layer before they come to school in the
morning, this will last until lunchtime. It is also important that they are
able to apply it themselves.
Thank you for your continued support.
Year 1/2 Team.
