Wow! Our last Friday in Poplar class, what a fantastic year it has been! Today we had an amazing time during sports day, we loved taking part and cheering on our teams! Thank you Miss Lizell for organising such a great event! This week, in English we have been learning and applying homophones to our writing such as: hair/hare; sun/son; flour/flour; pair/pear; would/wood... ask us some more! In maths, we have been learning about time and giving change. We have also enjoyed using the microscopes in science and starting a new plant investigation. We would really like to share our highlights from the year with you, reflecting on the fantastic year we have had in Year 2!
