Year 2 - Literacy Learning - Week Beginning 11th September

This week in year 2 we have kick started our India topic by looking at some of the animals you might find in India.  The children were challenged to write sentences about tigers and other animals.  Over the week we have built up our skills, reminding ourselves of what a sentence needs to make sense.  We have looked at adjectives (describing words) and verbs (doing words) and how we can improve our sentences by using exciting vocabulary.  Violet Vocabulary our class superhero who likes "Wow" words has been flying around the classroom in search of amazing vocabulary.  We have been overwhelmed with how the children have risen to the challenge, their work has not only improved since Monday, but some children have even been demonstrating these skills by writing at home and bringing their learning into class.  Well done year 2!  We are going to have an awesome year!
