In Literacy, we have been preparing to write some instructions on how to be a good friend. We looked at some different scenarios and got into groups to act them out. We demonstrated sharing, being kind he helping someone if they fell over. After this, we created our own scenarios and wrote them on our boards. 

In Maths, we have been learning how to count in threes. We made a tower of three using the cubes. We kept adding three on to help us know which number comes next.

In Science, we have been learning about different animals and their needs for survival. This week we focused on fish. We learnt that they need food, water, shelter and aid to survive. We looked closely at the parts of a fish and learnt that the gills help them to breathe and get air. We made our own fish out of paper plates and included the key parts of their bodies. 

In Maths, Year 2 have been practising their partitioning skills. We were given a number and had to find 3 different ways to partition it. We worked in partners to use Base Ten and cherry models to help us.  

This week, we have been introduced to our new literacy book, The Frog and the Stranger. We explored the events throughout the story and focusing on the way the characters feel. We wrote statement sentences and sentences with conjunctions in to explain what is happening in the story.
