The Hoot Announcements & Reminders 2SH Class Assembly—Tuesday 6th February Reading Plea - Please make sure you are listening to your child read their school reading books and signing their reading records so we can change their books each week. It is also useful to share a variety of other books too. Thank you for your support! School closes for half term - Friday 16th February Year 2 Edition . Wb: 5/2/2018 . Homework: Please check your homework books for the latest homework. English This week we will be learning what the features of a recount are. We will build up to writing our own recounts all about our trip to Tatton Park! Once they have been written, we will proof read them to check for errors and then edit them to make them better! Things to think about: What is a time connective? (eg. first, then, next, after that, finally etc.) Can you talk about your weekend using any of these words? Maths Our next unit is all about shape! What is the difference between a 2D and a 3D shape? Can you sort shapes according to their properties eg. number of sides/vertices (corners)/edges etc.? Things to think about: How many faces does a cube have? What shape is each face on a cube? What are the similarities and differences between a cube and a cuboid? Have a look around the environment to see what 2D and 3D shapes you can spot. Can you name each shape?
