The Animal Man comes to Haughmond
Today we had a visit from Simon, the Animal Man, to support our learning about animal classification in Science. We learned about mammals, reptiles, amphibians and some invertebrates and some of us even faced our fears and held creatures we were nervous of meeting!
Pimhill and the animal man.
We really enjoyed the animal visiting us today.
Here are some of the photos of us having fun.

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.
