Year 1

English: This week we have been looking at a range of poems with the theme of night time. The children have enjoyed looking at them and have all identified features of poetry that they enjoy. The children have written their own ‘goodnight’ poems and have been adding adjectives and commas where appropriate.

The year 1 children have been given a sheet to complete over the half term holidays. Miss Owen would like them to write their own poem based on a theme of their own choice, remembering to include adjectives and commas.

Maths: This week we have been looking at weight. The children can identify which items are heaviest and lightest using estimation and a balance scale.

Year 2

English: The year 2 children have continued to focus on punctuation this week; we have looked at capital letters, full stops, commas, question marks, exclamation marks and apostrophes over the last 2 weeks and learned how to apply these in our independent writing.

The year 2 children have been given a sheet to complete over the half term holidays. I would like them to write about their holiday, remembering to include punctuation, adjectives and conjunctions.

Year 2 English homework

Maths: Last week the year 2’s became much more confident with their multiplication work, this week have focussed on division and how we can use equipment and pictures to divide an amount.

D & T

This week we made our fruit salads. The children enjoyed this and should now progress to completing their evaluation sheet which was given as homework.

Spellings

I have provided the children with a sheet called ‘Spelling – Homework Ideas’, this provides the children with lots of fun, creative ways of learning their spellings. They do not have to learn them this way but I thought I would share it for those who would like to have a go.
