Homework – 10th February 2023
Money
We have been learning about money in maths over the last couple of weeks. Please could you practise making specific amounts of money with different coins with your child. This could be through playing games such as shops or going to an actual shop and helping your child to pay. If possible, please also include giving change.
Year 2 – You also have a calculation using money sheet to complete. You might want to do this with your grown up.
Multiplication
Next week, we are moving on to learning how to multiply. Please could you practise the times tables at home, focusing on 2, 5 and 10 times tables. Remember, you can also log on to Times Tables Rockstars to keep practising.
Stars of the Week
Well done to our Star pupils this week.
Mental Health Awareness Week
This year’s theme is – Let’s Connect
We learnt about how we connect with each other and how it is important for our mental health and well-being to spend time and connect with our families and friends.
We made paper chains as a class to share how we connect with different people we spend time with.
Painting afternoon
This afternoon we have been painting!
We have been inspired by the artwork of Edvard Munch.
