Team Holloway (Yr 2)

Please see attached sheet for this week's spellings. Have a lovely weekend!

Well done to those of you who have brought in your Love to Learn homework already. It has been lovely to see your creativity!

A reminder that you are asked to produce a sculpture made from natural materials inspired by land artist Andy Goldsworthy. Please photograph your work, print the photos and either stick them in your Love to Learn book or bring them into school to show your class.

Please bring this in no later than Friday 26th November.

Year 2 are excited to be doing a Christmas production of 'Gnome Alone'! Your child will have come home with their part of the script on Friday.  Please help your child to learn their lines, preferably by Monday 29th November. This will make it easier when we begin rehearsing our performance.

On Friday, we had an Environmental Day, we spent the day thinking about our environment, learning about climate change and COP26.  We had an assembly with Thanet District Council about littering and discussed things we could do to be more environmentally friendly. We also took part in the Cummins Washing Line Sculpture competition with Mrs Vost, we designed sculptures using items of clothing and material.

This term we start the Read Write Inc. Spelling Scheme which covers all the spelling rules children need to learn in Year 2. It's a fun programme with a variety of activities which will help your child learn to spell words beyond using phonics.. New spellings will be sent home this week but as there are lots of new activities to teach the children we won't be doing a test on these until next Friday, 12th November.
