Year 2 have been looking at money over the last 2 weeks. They have been recognising coins and notes, comparing amounts of money, as well as finding different ways to make the same amount. I wonder if you could have a go at adding some amounts together at home?

 Wishing you all a very merry Christmas and a healthy, happy New Year! Thank you all for our lovely presents - you are all very kind and generous!  From 2L staff :)

 Year 2 had a fantastic day yesterday! They were lucky enough to have a very exciting day recreating the life of people living through the Great Fire of London. They were then able to explore and dig up the ruins of London. Have a look at some of the fun they had!

 Thank you to everyone who attended our workshop today. If you were unable to make it, or would like to refer back to the presentation, please find it attached below. Thank you!           

 Year 2 have been looking at writing instructions over the last 2 weeks. We found out that we have to use imperative verbs, time adverbials and command sentences! We shared some of our instructions with a Year 4 class and then had a go at instructing our partners to draw a picture and then revealed the pictures to see if they were the same - we had great fun!

 This morning, we had a visitor from the Essex Fire/ Police Service education team to speak to us about safety around Halloween and Bonfire Night. They left us the following leaflet with their top tips for you to browse and have asked the children to pass on what they have learnt so that the season runs smoothly. 

 Please see below some guidance to help develop your child's reading comprehension:

 The children are having a great start to Year 2 and are working extremely hard with their learning! They have particularly enjoyed our PE sessions, looking at place value in maths and learning about The Great Fire of London in History!
