Hello Year 2,

I know that some of you have been working very hard on your grammar activities at home and have asked for a little help understanding it all.

Here are two documents you might find useful.  The first one is for you and explains what some of the words mean in a way that children can understand.  The second one is for your grown-ups and explains all of the grammar that children learn in school in Year 1 and Year 2.

Grammar Gang posters for children

Grammar explanations for adults

You don’t have to do anything with this, it’s just there for you to read if you would like some extra help.

Any questions, just ask.

Love from Mrs Legg

Good morning Year 2! 

How are you all today?  I hope you manage to get outside and enjoy the sun this week.  Remember to be careful, though – we need to wear sun cream and drink lots of water.

Hi Year 2,

I’ve been told today that some of the Maths Mystery Challenges didn’t photocopy correctly and you only have half the pages!  I’m sorry if that happened to yours!  I’ve put them all on here so you can have a look at them if you would like to.

The Mystery of the Naughty Gnome

The Mystery of the Missing Macaws

The Mystery of the Missing Moji

Have a great weekend, everyone.

Good morning Year 2! 

Yesterday, when I got home from school, I did some baking.  I made a Bakewell Tart which is one of my favourite things to eat!  Sadly, when it was in the oven I was talking to my mum on the phone so the Bakewell Tart got a little bit burnt, but it still tastes yummy!
