Welcome to Year 2's Class Page!

Here you will find important information about the school week, exciting news and pictures of the activities we've enjoyed throughout the school year.

Information for Parents and Guardians

Our PE day is Wednesday, please ensure your child brings an appropriate kit to school with them (white t-shirt, black jogging bottoms/leggings or shorts and trainers). This can be left in school on their peg and sent home every half term or sooner if needed.
Reading books should be changed weekly. They need to bring their reading books and reading records in on Wednesday and new ones will be sent home on Friday - these are in line with the phonics scheme. If they receive a book they have read before, it is so they can consolidate their learning. Please sign their record so we know about the amazing reading they have been doing at home!

The children have also been set up with a Rockerbox log in. There's lots of fantastic opportunities for reading and comprehension for them to practise on here. If they need a new one, please just let me know.

Spellings are also sent home on Fridays and will be based on their phonics or spelling pattern they will be learning the following week. Please take some time to read and practise these. Information about the phonics your child is learning that week will also be sent home to help you support your child’s learning. It is important to practise phonics with your child each week, and you can find some useful activities on the parent sheet.

We have started with our brand new handwriting scheme - Letterjoin. The children have been given a log in so they can practice at home.

Curriculum

  • In English, we are currently learning about the dangers to the environment through an information text about Manchester.
  • In Maths, we are learning about 2-D and 3-D shapes, their properties and how we can compare them to one another!
  • In Science we have started our new topic - 'Habitats' - I wonder if you can find any habitats outside of school?
  • In Geography, we are exploring Brazil (using the internet and books!). We have been comparing it to the UK.
  • In Religion, we have started learning about 'The Good News'. We will be reading and understanding lots of stories from the Bible about how Jesus helped people. We also enjoy going to mass in Church, our children-led class worships and weekly hymn practice.
