Autumn Term Learning in English

We have had a special guest come to see Year 2 children! Children had lots of questions to ask Little Red Riding Hood. 

 This term, children will be writing a character description of the big, bad Wolf!

They will also be retelling the story of Little Red Riding Hood. How exciting!​​​​​​

In Autumn 2, children will be writing a recount on their trip to Dudley Canal, and then they will be writing instructions about how to make a healthy sandwich. This is linked to our D&T topic, where children will make a healthy sandwich. 

Spring Term Learning in English!

This term, we are looking at the Great Fire of London. We are going to be writing a setting description describing the horrid fire that teared through London. We are then going to be writing a narrative based on the book Vlad and the Great Fire of London. Finally, we are going to be writing a diary entry, where we are going to imagine we are in London during the fire and we are going to be describing how we escaped London. 

We will be sharing our exciting learning here, so keep your eyes peeled!

Jim and the Beanstalk 

We read Jim and the Beanstalk this term. We then wrote a character description about the Giant. We then wrote our own narrative based on Jim and the Beanstalk. We changed some parts of the narrative and chose the things that the Giant needed. For example, scarf, football, boots and jumper.
