Numberlines, snow and moon fun!

This week in Numeracy we have been learning how to use a numberline to help us with our sums and number problems. We have been working with some bigger numbers lately so we have had to think carefully about the best way to work things out.

On number day Mr. Merchant asked us to make up number problems for him and for our friends. We asked him our number questions in assembly and some of them were very tricky but he managed to get them all right! We also had a treasure hunt where we had to solve clues and answer maths questions to be able to find the treasure.

In Literacy we were continuing to look at the book 'The Man on the Moon' and 'Bob's best friend ever.' We wrote a character description of Bob thinking carefully about using exciting describing words.

Our focus in Literacy next week is writing 'Lists and instructions' and in Numeracy, 'Division by grouping.' The Numeracy and Literacy homework that went out today (Friday) is due in on Wednesday.

If you need any clarification on the homework tasks or any of the work that we are doing in class please feel free to speak to any of the Year 2 team.

Have a good weekend,

Mr. Merchant and 2M
