Week 2 - Homework

Children in Need Day!

We had great fun this morning joining in with Joe Wick's 24 hour work out! We found out that Joe raised one million pounds for children in need!!!! WOW!! Thank you, parents, for your financial contributions and for sending the kids in their snuggliest PJs! They all look very cute. 

A Message from the Student Council 

Dear Parents,

Next week is Anti-Bullying week and Virginia Primary School Council would like everyone at Virginia to show their commitment to Anti-Bullying by wearing... ODD SOCKS! 

Your child can choose their most mis-matched socks to wear to school on Monday 16th Nov. 

We look forward to seeing their crazy combinations! 

Thank you for your support, 

The School Council. 

Maths Homework 

In Maths this week, the children have been using mental strategies such as number bonds and doubles to add together three one-digit numbers. This exercise will help them practise those skills. 

<-----They can try this magic square as an extra challenge! 

They need to: 

​Write the numbers 1 to 9 in each of the squares below, so that each row, column and diagonal adds up to 15.

Next week in Maths we will be moving onto money! It would be great to spend some time over the weekend discussing money with your child and maybe taking them to the shops to participate in the shopping process.

Reading 

We hope the children are enjoying their reading and feeling appropriately challenged by the books being sent home. Please do feed back to us via their reading records. Your observations are very useful to us. 

That's all for now! 

Have a lovely weekend.
We are looking forward to seeing you soon (virtually) for Virginia's first ever Zoom parents' evening! 
The Year 2 Team.
