Dear Parents/Carers
This week has been a very busy week! We made a wonderful class wreath of poppies for Remembrance Day, baked some delicious Challah in R.E and created beautiful fireworks artwork.
On Thursday, we had a very special school Mass to celebrate Remembrance Day. The children were interested and respectful when learning about this special occasion.
In maths this week we continued our learning about subtracting a 2-digit number from a 2-digit number. We have done subtraction without exchange and have started to look at exchanging. In English, we planned and then wrote an information report about Remembrance Day.
At St Matthew’s we are attempting to become as paperless as we can and because of this the spellings are no longer sent out on paper. However, for whatever reason, if you need a paper copy, please let me know and I am happy to prepare this. This week we have another round of challenge words (these will be left up for 4 weeks) and the /l/ or /ul/ sound spelled ’-le’ at the end of words.
Looking to next week, Year 2 have a MUFTI Day on Thursday 18th November. Can the children please bring in a donation if they choose to wear their own clothing. This donation will go towards the charity Shelter.
As always, if you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to ask.
From Miss Bennett, Mrs Bibby, Mrs Killy and Mrs Glanville
