Year 2 - Summer 2 - Week 6

Date: 5th Jul 2024 @ 4:26pm

And that's it, our penultimate week is over, only one more week left of Year 2!

In English, we finished off reading our story, Grandad's Secret Giant, focusing further on developing our understand of the formation of letters and diary entries. We loved writing our final letter to Grandpa. Next week, will focus heavily on transition into Year 3. 

In Maths, we finished off our final topic of the year, Position and Direction. We focused on describing turns as well as giving instructions to our friends giving them specific commands whilst using mathematical terminology. Next week, we will consolidate our learning from the year through a range of fun activites. 

To finish off our Young Leaders Award, we completed our final step - Action. We decided that it would be a lovely idea to celebrate our Year 6 children on the success of their SATS results. For this, we made the children cakes and sandwiches, serving them juice at the same time in the hall.

In PE, we focused on developing our team-building skills whilst playing a game of rounders on the field. The weather has been perfect or lots of fresh air! 

The children recently enjoyed a visit from Josh from Formby Library who shared all the exciting details about this year's Summer Reading Challenge. There are two ways you can take part in the Summer Reading Challenge:
  • You can join at Formby Library and take part in person. The librarian will give you a collector folder, stickers, and other special rewards, and help you find books to read.
  • Or, take part online by signing up here. Set a reading goal and log your books on your profile. When you reach your goal, you will unlock a virtual badge and certificate. Link: https://summerreadingchallenge.org.uk/join-in
Please note, the in-person and online challenges are separate. Medals and certificates are only available via the library, for those taking part in the in-person challenge. We hope the children enjoy completing the reading challenge and this will be celebrated when we return to school in September.

Reminders 

  • Children will finish next Friday, 19th June at 1pm prompt.
  • Children need to bring their water bottles and hats to school each day, where possible, to protect them from the sun
