We have managed to fit lots in this week, despite it being a short week!

We have been working really hard on our reading comprehension, especially in Year 2 and have been learning how to do this really well. Here are our top tips that we came up with....


We have been reading part of the Alice in Wonderland story and information texts about Dodos and thinking carefully and discussing what we have read. We are starting to get into the story now and have lots more exciting projects in the next few weeks!

In Year 1 in Maths this week we have been working on using number lines, beaded lines and 100-squares to help us find 1 more and 1 less than 2-digit numbers and have also practised counting in 10s - forwards and backwards to 100!
Year 2 have been doing some very tricky work on rounding up/down to the nearest 10 and have been learning about Charlie Croc - he helps us remember 'greater than' and 'less than' as he always eats the biggest number! For example - 
                                                     38    >    25      or       12    <    18       

We are all really good at our 2 times table now, thanks to 'Stick 'em up!' - we are beginning to move on to the 10 times table now too!




This week Billy was in the Golden Book for trying really hard and challenging himself throughout the week, especially with his reading and writing - well done!


Home Learning
Due Thursday 11th May

This week you have a Maths task following on from our learning in class this week.

Year 1 - I would like you to order the 'tens' numbers and add the missing numbers at the bottom.

Year 2 - Please complete the inequalities sheet using what you now know about Charlie Croc (use the symbols <  >  or  =    in each problem).  BE CAREFUL - there are a few tricky ones!


Spellings have been given as usual.
