Part of the children’s homework in Year 2 was to play Times Tables Rockstars as much as possible over the coming week. A massive well done to all of the children who have logged into their account and have been practising their multiplication and division skills. Miss Davies’ class are well in the lead in our ‘battle’ but plenty of time remains this week to participate.

Next Tuesday we’re going to be making vehicles out of junk modelling materials (cereal boxes, toilet roll tubes, bottles, yoghurt pots and much more).

Today, you’re going to design a vehicle. Can you include axels and wheels that make your vehicle move? What shape of body will your vehicle have? How are you going to decorate it?

We hope you have a great day and enjoy the home learning activities 🙂

A massive well done to the children in Year 2 who were rewarded for all of their hard work on the Times Tables Rockstars website during the Autumn term. Mr Porteous is really looking forward to seeing who he will be able to reward at the end of the Spring term for their efforts
