Home learning (week beginning 22/06/2020)

22/6/2020

Hello everyone!

To start this weeks blog, I would like to share some of the fabulous work I have received from members of our Year 2 class!

Below is a piece of art that Rose has created to represent the creation story. She used various items of clothing and a camping mat to make this masterpiece. How creative! I love all the different shades of blue that create a wave effect. Well done Rose!

Erin and Opal have also been keeping very busy! They both had their science caps on last week as they completed the Y2 investigation into the suitability of a range of materials for a sailing boat. They both made great predictions and concluded that plastic is the best material to make a boat from. Great job girls. Keep up the hard work!

Brain Teaser!
This week I have a maths challenge for you to solve... How many times does the number FIVE occur between the numbers 1-100?

NUMBER OF THE WEEK
What can you tell me about the number...

Is it odd or even? How many tens and ones? Can you use 97 in a subtraction number sentence? How would it look as an array? What is 10 more? How about 10 less?

Weekly spellings
Please do not worry if you cannot print it out, just copy them down onto a piece of paper!
