The Great Fire of London.

This half-term Year 2 will be learning all about The Great Fire of London. We visited forest school to experience a real fire, which was great fun.

In English, we are looking at different kinds of poems and using our senses to write our own poem about fire. We will also be writing a diary entry and a non-chronological report.

In Maths, we will be further developing our skills in addition, subtraction, measures including money, telling the time to the hour, half past and quarter to, and mass. We will also be focusing on exploring the two, five and ten times tables.

In RE, we will be thinking about the importance of remembering and linking this to the Jewish festival of Shabbat.

In History, we will be investigating The Great Fire of London and look at how London today is different from London in 1666.

Our Science will focus on pushes and pulls, investigating how objects can move, change direction and change shape.
