Learning about vertices on 2D shapes
                                   Children are introduced to the terms vertex and vertices. They
                                   understand that a vertex is where two lines meet at a point. They
                                   recognise that corners are vertices and will be able to identify and count
                                   them on shapes.

                                   Show me a vertex.
                                   Can you identify the vertices in this shape?
                                    Would this be a vertex?
                                   Explain why.
                                   If my shape has ____ vertices, what could my shape be? What couldn’t
                                   it be?

                                   This week in English we have been learning about blue whales and we have
                                   read the book The Blue Whale by Nicola Davies.
                                   You can listen again to Mrs Reynolds reading the story here: The Big Blue Whale
                                   Today you are going to be creating and writing your own book about the
                                   blue whale. Think carefully about all of the facts you have learnt this week.
                                      • Listen to the story Blue Whale by Jenni Desmond (found at the bottom
                                        of this blog)
                                   Our book example:

• Make sure you think carefully about your writing.
  • Include illustrations, or cut out photos or pictures, use colour and facts
     in your booklet.
  • The facts could be from the stories you have listened to or your own
     which you have researched.
  • We have included a facts sheet. You could use this. (see the Year 2
     page to download).
How to make a booklet: Click here you may need a parent to help here!
You could make a very simple booklet by folding one or two pages together
and attaching with staples or sting.
Make a habitat in a box!
This is an activity that we find children really enjoy. It is a longer piece
of work that we would not expect you to do all in one session. You
could make a start today and continue tomorrow during our Screen
Free Day.
First, think about what habitat you would like to create. The major
habitats are – forests, grasslands, deserts, mountain regions, polar
regions and aquatic habitats. You could do some internet research so
that you can have a really good look at the features of the landscape
and find out some information about the habitat you have chosen.
Also, think about what animals and plants you would find there.
Now you are ready to create your habitat in a box! Have fun and
please do send in any creations via a photo to our class emails so that
we can celebrate your super work too. Here are some examples;
