Hello everyone!

Year 2 have had a lovely week learning about place value in Maths, writing poems about the colour monster using similes in Literacy and learning about what is inside a seed in Science.

This week in Literacy we are continuing with the story ‘The Colour Monster’. We will planning and writing our own stories about the colour monster throughout the week. We will be looking at what a conjunction is and how to use them in our writing. Here is some information about what a conjunction is https://www.bbc.co.uk/bitesize/topics/zkxxsbk/articles/z6rvbdm
