Write an opening to your story and try to use the conjunctions ‘when’, ‘because’, ‘if’, ‘and’, ‘or’ and ‘but’. Remember to ask an adult to email your work so we can read your amazing story openings.

This term we are going to be looking at comparing the UK to Kenya.

We would like you to research facts all about Kenya and start to think about how it is the same and how it is different to the UK. Use the pictures below to help think about the similarities and differences too.

It's time to get creative!

Because our topic for this half term is about animals and their habitats, we would like you to get creative and re-create your FAVOURITE habitat!

Think of your favourite habitat and do some research about what your habitat looks like. You can do some of your own research and you can also use the links in the science tab on this page to help you decide which habitat you would like to do.

Once you have chosen your habitat, we would like you to have a go at making your chosen habitat using different resources in your house, such as cardboard boxes, paper, string, tissue paper, glue, paint etc.

When you have made your very own habitat, please send us a picture of your creation. We cannot wait to see them!

Use the photographs below for some inspiration! Good luck year 2!

QUESTION: How can we look after our environment?

It's important that we lok after our environment for both ourselves and the living things around us.

We would like you to researchingg all about how we can look after our environment. Once you have done your research, please create a poster with lots of facts and pictures that will tell your teachers how we can keep our environment safe, clean and tidy!

REMEMBER: When you do research you should do it with an adult so that you can keep safe whilst online!

We have put some useful websites below that you may want to use to do some research all about looking after our environment. Please also use the photographs below for some inspiration for your own posters!
