The Statistics Powerpoint is on the school website (Year 2 maths Powerpoint -Statistics) and should take just under two weeks to work through roughly from May 4th. There will be another PowerPoint available from May 11th on Length, again this is a 2 week unit approximately. There are plenty more links available for maths websites on the last document should you require them.

Please continue to use My Maths and to practice maths skills as often as possible.

Remember, there are lots of opportunities for maths while doing other things ie measuring heights of plants, weighing mass when baking, measuring liquid capacity, timing how long things take to do and telling the time, times tables etc

If you have any queries, please email your child’s class teacher via the class email.

Year 2 summer term 1 units
Art Begin by looking at different fruits and vegetables, name them, describe them and make observational drawings of them. Can you use a magnifying glass to look at them carefully? Then you could begin to learn about the artist, Arcimboldo. Find out about his work and create some of your own using fruit and vegetables. Perhaps you could use magazine pictures or draw your own fruit and vegetables.(We have put some sheets of fruit pictures on the website for you to use if you would like to print these out, but we know this might not be possible.)

See the clip on the class Padlet for more ideas. Don’t forget to evaluate your work like we do in school. What did you like about your work? What would you change or improve? What skills did you learn? Are you pleased with what you created? You could take a photo of it and let us see it by emailing it to us.

Science We should be learning about the parts of plants and how they grow. If you have seeds you could plant them, and you could do a diary about their growth. Otherwise perhaps you could be creative i.e. grow a carrot top or a potato! Some supermarkets do sell packs of seeds, so you might be able to get a few! Think about what a plant needs to help it grow and perhaps set up some experiments to prove it.

If you scroll down to the bottom of this link, there are many more videos about plants to watch! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z-iPp6yn0hw is a time lapse photography video of a sunflower growing.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w77zPAtVTuI&t=2s There are lots of time lapse videos of plants growing on YouTube, like this bean one!

Geography Learning about the World-using an atlas or maps. Learn to recognise and name continents and oceans. Find out about the climates of each continent (there’s a link on Padlet to help you.) Look specifically at the United Kingdom (UK) and learn to recognise and name the countries, the capital cities, flags and flowers. Can you locate places on the map of the UK? i.e. Gloucester, Bristol and other places of interest to your family. Look at different map symbols and use compass points.

RE This term’s RE unit is “What is the good news that Christians believe Jesus brings?” Find out about Jesus’s disciples, their names and what they did. Could you think of 12 people (or professions) who would help to change the world? The people Jesus chose were not necessarily the type of people you would expect! How did meeting Jesus change the lives of Matthew and Zaccheus?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xgy6TWuUkK0 Matthew
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=39fHwaR2P40 Matthew
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kmZhUKS_cQA Zacchaeus
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gcr7ZC9gx04 Zacchaeus
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5BjtbJFz2ug Zacchaeus

After this, think about forgiveness and saying sorry. Perhaps have a discussion with your family about times when people have needed to have been forgiven and have needed to apologise. How does this feel?

Jesus promises his followers peace. Talk about some of the things that stop us having peace and try to think of some ways in which people find peace.

Christians believe that Jesus loves them and forgives them and that brings them peace. This is the good news that Jesus brings! How do Christians help other people? There are lots of examples of this at the moment. You could create a poster or write a prayer about this.
