Welcome to Year 2!
Year 2, this year promises to be filled with exciting learning, new challenges, and lots of fun; encouraging everyone to do their best while enjoying the journey and having fun along the way.
Our class is a friendly, happy and exciting place to learn. We have everything that we need nearby and have practical exploration areas in our classroom to support our topic work. We also love to display our work and enhance our learning through classroom displays. All the children are encouraged to look after our classroom and keep our resources tidy.
Our day begins with our class prayers and welcome. We take part in Celebration of the Word each day either in class or as a whole school. We love reading and have a wide variety of engaging texts in our lovely reading area.
Children also take home a reading book for home reading. We have VIPERS sessions in class as well as support with our home reading.
We have very busy days in Year 2 with tasks that help us daily with our reading, English and Mathematics. Our Curriculum is broad and exciting, and it helps us to learn about the world around us as well as important people and events in history. We enjoy PE which takes place on Wednesday afternoons. We also enjoy our active lessons and brain breaks.
Homework in Y2 is focused on reading. Please ensure that you listen to your child read as regularly as possible and that they are quizzing on Accelerated Reader.
We hope that you have enjoyed reading all about Year 2. I’m sure that you will agree that it is an exciting place to learn.
