Ash Class

Welcome to Ash Class!

Welcome back! The children have all had a fantastic first week back at school - they have all settled back in fantastically.

Just a quick reminder that PE and Forest School days have now swapped - PE is now on a Friday and Forest School is on a Wednesday.

This week in Ash Class:

In Phonics, we have continued to practice our first Phase 5 sounds.

'ir' makes an 'er' like in first

'ie' makes an 'igh' like in cried

'ue' makes an 'oo' like in glue

'u' makes an 'yoo' like in unicorn

We have been identifying our new digraphs within words and have practiced writing words containing these words. We have also worked hard to apply some of our new GPCs in our Drawing Club codes.

The activities below will support your child to further develop the skills we have been working on throughout the week.

This week in Drawing Club, we have looked at the story 'Hundred Decker Bus'.

This week, we have used adjectives to describe the bus and used the word 'and' to join words when describing what was on the  bus. 

In Maths, we have been continuing to learn about addition. This week we have been exploring our number bonds, thinking about different ways we can make totals.

Discovery this week has seen us start our new topic, 'On the Move'. We learnt about different forms of transport and created our very own pictograms showing what transport Year 2 had used. We also throughly enjoyed learning about our new artist, Stephen Wiltshire. We looked carefully at different pieces of his work, thinking about what we could see and what we liked. We are so excited to start to produce some sketches over the next few weeks.
