This week we will continue our pirate work! I am planning an amazing trip to the HMS Victory and a pirate day!

You are all working so hard, keep it up!

Please read as much as you can and ask them questions about them.

Literacy - This week we will be using our pirate books we have read to plan and write our own adventure stories. We will be trying to remember to punctuate them correctly, use conjunctions and adjectives. Year 2 will be trying to use inverted commas. 

Maths- Year 2 will be finding out the mass of objects and reading scales. They will be practising their mental arithmetic in all four calculations.
