Grade+2FWT

**Grade 2 FWT** **Teacher: Fiona West**

**MATHS** The Grade 2 FW class are currently learning how to solve two digit subtraction with trading. This can be a difficult process and therefore regular practice solving these types of sums would benefit the children.

**LITERACY** We have been looking at poems this week and the children have written their own **Colour Poems**. We will be 'publishing' their poems in the following week to display around the classroom.

**NEWS & UPDATES** Book Week Junior school has been celebrating Book Week this week and has partaken in many fun and exciting activities. On Monday we had a Book Character dress up day, where the children got to parade around in their wonderful costumes and enjoy a fun day of book crafts and activities. On Thursday we had an exciting visit from a published author and illustrator, Richard Galbraith. The Junior School classes all participated in a 'Cartooning' workshop with Richard and were lead through the processes of drawing a cartoon. The Grade Two students drew some amazing cartoons!! What a talented group of children we have at Chairo!!
