Welcome to Year 2

Spring term...

it's time to Be Brave!

Our English text will be The Owl who was Afraid of the Dark by Jill Tomlinson where the pupils will learn to:

• Use coordination (and but)
•  Add ly to an adjective to turn it into an adverb
•  Write for different purposes
•  Use a comma to separate items in a list

and ultimately write a non chronological report on owls.

NUMERACY

We are learning about place value and addition and subtraction.

Don't forget to log on to your Times Tables Rockstars too!

READING

Daily reading at Year Two is strongly encouraged to help children reach the required level of speed and fluency.  Reading Records are checked daily and raffle tickets are given to those children who have read.  Each week there is a prize for the lucky winner!  

Reading books, Reading for Pleasure books and Phonics Reading books will be changed every Friday.

PE

Children should have a full PE kit in school at all times.  This should consist of shorts and a T-shirt for indoor PE and trainers and a tracksuit for outdoor PE.  

Swimming

Mrs Ball's class will swim on a Tuesday and Mrs Ronald's class on a Thursday. Wrap up warm and tie back long hair please.
