Year 2 Homework             

W/C 20^th May 2013

Big Write:

This week our Big Write will be to write an information leaflet all about our local area.  The children will need to write about the amenities in St.Brides Major such as the school, church, local shops and playgroup.  They will imagine that their leaflet is being used to attract people to our locality so will need to think of positive and persuasive language.  The children can be creative in this task and may design their leaflet in any way they choose.

Spellings/Maths:

There is no homework to complete this week.  The children have worked incredibly hard over the past half term and deserve a well earned break from revision and tests!

Topic:

We will continue to study our locality for the next half term but will also start learning about growing plants.  We would be very grateful for any donations of seeds or plants and would also welcome any keen gardeners into class to share their knowledge with the children.

Trip:

We are planning to take the children to Bryngarw Country Park on the first day back to school – June 3^rd.  We will be taken around the park with a ranger – learning about the plants and creatures that live in the area.  Children will need to be dressed in trousers – jeans or joggers with a school t-shirt, jumper and sensible shoes.  Please ensure your child has either sun cream and a hat or waterproof clothing depending on our ever changing weather!  If you would like to accompany us on this trip please let me know by Wednesday 22^nd so that we can accommodate you on the bus. 

Have a fantastic half term holiday.  Let’s hope that the sun shines.

Kind Regards,

Mrs C. Jenkins
