The children have now chosen their area for research and next week will be starting by thinking about what they already know and what they want to find out. Many children seem particularly interested in reproduction!
In Maths we have started to look closely at number bonds, finding different ways to make a number using addition. We will continue working on this next week using practical equipment to see patterns and recording using the + symbol. Children will be learning and hopefully remembering the number bonds for all numbers up to ten and then extend this to working with numbers up to 20 and 100 (in multiples of ten).
We have all been reading the story of the Enormous Turnip this week, acting it out, finding adjectives and noticing verbs in sentences. We will be continuing to look at verbs and how they change to form the past tense. Children have started to write their own stories by introducing and describing their character. Next they will describe the setting in their story.

2JS noticed that there was an unusual visitor in school on Wednesday so we crept off to have a little peak. The children used lots of adjectives to describe him!

| Prickles the hedgehog. |

Well done to the Year 2 stars of this week.
