Good morning Year Two
to you!
Thank you to everyone for working so hard on your learning this week. I understand that each day it gets harder but you need to stay positive and keep going and try to wake up each morning with a smile on your face. It is getting closer to the time when we will all be back in class three learning together.
Please could you email me your notes about elephants and a photo of you wearing your funky glasses or hat.
Enjoy your weekend and try and do something different with your family.

Monday 1st February
Good morning Year Two
I hope you have enjoyed your weekend. Our whole school learning this Monday is linked to mental health week. Be as creative as you can and have lots of fun today.
Well done to everyone for working hard last week. Did you see some of our work on face book?
Amazing!
Whole-school Learning Focus
In order to enhance our learning, and allow siblings to work together, we have decided that each Monday we will have a whole-school focus on an interesting topic.
It is all linked to the curriculum and we have extended it for different ages, but we felt working together would support the learning process.
The tasks that have 'essential' next to them must be completed. Once the essential tasks have been completed, you can choose from the choice tasks.
This week's theme is 'Express Yourself' linked to children's mental health week. Please click on the link that will take you to the whole school learning page.
