SUPERHEROES

"Not all superheroes wear capes..."

 

Forget Batman and Superwoman, we'll be learning all about real-life superheroes who changed the lives of many people with their acts of kindness, determination and courage.  We'll begin by looking at the achievements of Neil Armstrong and then learning all about the work of Florence Nightingale, Mary Seacole and Edith Cavell, the 'nurturing nurses'.  Perhaps their stories will inspire us to do great things and change the world for the better!

 

 

 

 

Marvellous Maths!

This half-term, our focus will be addition and subtraction.  Try these fun games to support your learning!

  • 1-minute maths This FREE app is fantastic to develop children's fluency. It follows the 'White Rose' scheme which we use in school and will complement learning perfectly!
  • Top Marks Maths Games This site has a range of topic-related games for children to play. Have a look at the 'money' games and the 'multiplication and division' games - good luck! (Please note, children in Year 2 cover the 2, 5 and 10 times tables only).
  • Nrich challenges If your child needs an extra stretch, try some of these multiplication and division problems.

Exciting English!
