Our Week:
This week we visited the National Portrait Gallery and Trafalgar Square it was so much fun!
We learned many things about portraits and saw about a hundred! There was portrait analysis, clue spotting and time to create our own artwork too!

Home Learning:
Every Thursday, the children will be set home learning, see below. English and Maths have separate Home Learning books for the work to be completed in. Home learning should be handed in on the following Monday to allow time for it to be checked and returned before new tasks are set.

Reading
Please return library books on Thursday.
We will then visit the library on Thursday and send out new library books. We are encouraging children to write their own book title in the reading record during our library visit which they have really enjoyed!
Are there are any tricky words? Can your child re-tell the story? Can they re-read speech remembering to use expression? Is the story was similar to another one they have read or got a similar character?
*Re-reading to develop fluency and expression is a key focus in year 2.
Maths
Complete your reasoning questions and show your tens and ones or equations. Adults can read all questions to children- it does not have to be independently read in year 2.
