Year 2 Week beginning 25th January

Monday 25th January

Today, all children should complete our maths and English lessons. We will be here to answer any of your questions and to look at your work. Remember to comment below so that we know that you are here when we take our register. When you have completed the maths and English lessons you may wish to go and play in the snow. There is a topic lesson on our topic page but you may prefer to complete this a different day so that you can have fun in the snow. If you have any photos of your snow play, your parents can Tweet them by adding @hillstoneps and we can all see them.

Good news! We now have a place where you can send your work to us. When you finish a lesson, please take a photograph of it and submit by click on the ‘Super Work’ image below. Make sure your name is written on the work clearly. We look forward to seeing what you have done today!

She has practiced her handwriting and also her days of the week spelling (her own activity) after lunch we are going for a walk to see more cars as it’s very quiet here on the roads.
