Hello and welcome to Year 2!

 Ms Courtney, Miss Bray and Mrs Fayi are all so excited to be teaching your wonderful children this year and cannot wait to get stuck into some fabulous learning.

Autumn 1 and 2

Our topic this term is 'Fire and Ice.' We will be looking at the seasons, weather patterns and the historical event of The Great Fire of London to delve into this topic. We will be reading the book, 'The Squirrel and the Lost Treasure and 'Lost and Found' in our English lessons. These books are beautifully illustrated to inspire the children. 

In Maths, we have already completed our Place Value topic. Year 2, have looked at tens and ones, multiples of 2s, 5s and 10s, greater than and less than, locating numbers on a number line and estimation. The children have used a variety of resources to help them in their math's lessons, including: base 10, ten frames, numicon and counters.

We are now looking at addition and subtraction and the children are continuing to work really hard. 

PE Days

Our PE days are on a Wednesday and a Friday. Please make sure your child is wearing a suitable PE kit.

In our uniform policy this states that there are no logos on clothes or trainers. Earrings will need to be removed for these days, unless recently pierced (6 weeks)

Thank you :)
