Well done Owls, we are nearly at the end of our first half term in Year 2!

In maths, we have continued with our 'Addition & Subtraction' unit. We having been looking at related number facts ( 2 + 8 = 10 so 20 + 80 = 100) and have been looking at our number bonds to 100. We then looked at adding and subtracting 1s from a 2-digit number and adding and subtracting by 10! What a busy week! Can you show someone at home what you can do?

10 + ___ = 100

20 + ___ = 100

30 + ___ = 100

40 + ___ = 100

50 + ___ = 100

23 + 5 = ___

78 - 4 =  ___

___ = 12 + 3

___ = 45 - 4

10 more than 31 is ___

10 less than 31 is ___

10 more than 47 is ___

10 less than 47 is ___

In English, we have been planning and writing our own story. The children have worked hard to include adverbs, adjectives, conjunctions and expanded noun phrases in their writing! I am super impressed! Can you tell someone at home about your story? 

In topic, we have been looking at the invention of flight! We learnt all about the Wright Brothers. Can you tell someone at home who they are? What did they invent? Can you remember how long their first flight lasted? Next week we will be completing a flight experiment. We are very excited!

Have a lovely weekend!
