Friday

 Today we are going to read through the text and identify words the author has used to join ideas. We call these conjunctions. 

We have learned about coordinating conjunctions, which join two main clauses, and subordinating conjunctions, which join a main clause and a subordinating clause (which doesn’t make a full sentence on its own.)

Let’s watch to remind ourselves of examples of coordinating conjunctions before we identify them in our text.

Now let’s watch a video about subordinating conjunctions to remind ourselves how they are used to add extra detail for the reader when we are explaining how or why something happens.

Write a sentence that we can include in our life cycle of a plant that includes a subordinating conjunction.

 For example 

To be able to find the start time, given the end time and the duration in 5-minute and 1-hour intervals.

Let’s explore

Can you join fabrics by using running stich?  

Today we are going to decorate our finger puppets!

You’ve all done a brilliant job making them, and now it’s time to add the finishing touches. You can use colours, fabric, buttons, or anything fun provided to bring your puppet to life.

Think about what your puppet is — maybe it’s an animal, a person, or even a made-up character! Be creative, take your time, and most importantly, have fun. We can’t wait to see your amazing designs, Year 2!
