Welcome to the Year Two class page.
Summer 1 update:
Just one term left to go of this school year and as usual, it is going to be as busy as ever! I have added a reviewed long term plan for the Summer term.
Our English key text for the first half term will be Mudpuddle Farm written by Michael Morpurgo and we will be exploring the farm animals and all of their adventures. Year 2 will write a persuasive leaflet, a story with a farm setting and a riddle based on a piece of fruit!
We will be finishing off Fractions in Maths and moving onto the properties of shape, statistics and measurement. Please make sure the children are logging onto Mathletics and completing any assigned activities, plus extra – any communication regarding Mathletics will be on Seesaw.
Science will see us moving onto Everyday Materials and we will be exploring the properties of materials. Alongside this, we will be planting and observing the growth process throughout the term. Geography will continue to be a focus and we will be exploring human and physical features of the UK and the countries of the UK. History will focus on the Jubilee celebrations in school and our key questions;
Who are the Queen’s relatives?
How is the Queen significant in our local area/our children’s lives?
Our work will contribute to a whole school display which parents will be welcome to come and see. If any family members can contribute photographs/interviews/recounts of any Royal celebrations in Grimsargh, please let me know.
Year Two will continue to work with Mrs Coulston for their Art and Design and Design Technology. This will be every Tuesday Morning. PE will now take place on Wednesday and Thursday of each week. I have attached a new weekly timetable below – please note, this timetable is flexible and if necessary, can change on a weekly basis.
Spellings will be added to Seesaw each Thursday evening and sent home in the children’s diaries each Friday. We will have our spelling quiz every Friday at 11.30am.
Reading is still a very important task for your children and their diaries should be written in each night so we know their reading is being supported at home. This is a vital point in their Year Two journey and making sure their reading is consistently completed is going to support their progress.
I have added some key documents below for you to see and I will update the social media channels as regularly as possible and add some key events to the class gallery.
Thank you for your continued support,
Mrs Coupe and Mrs Hemmings
