Year 2 2024 - 2025

Welcome to Year Two 

Please make sure your child brings a coat, planner and reading book with them to school. We will send reading books home and will be encouraging the children to choose a book from the class library, to develop a love of reading. 

Children will continue to have fruit during morning break but if you wish for your child to bring their own snack this must be healthy and nut free.

Every Monday, children's planners will be checked and updated if necessary. Please sign your child's planner to show that they have read at least three times a week. We will continue to work on fluency and expression, and will further develop our understanding of the text we are reading using a variety of comprehension activities in school. English based homework will be reading, spellings and comprehension, Maths based homework will be Numbots/ TT Rockstars set and handed in on Mondays.  

Weekly spellings will be tested and updated on Mondays. 

On PE days, the children can come to school in their PE kit. Year Two have PE on Tuesdays and Wednesdays. 

In Summer Half Term Two, we will be making connections by using our investigative skills in Science, learning about significant flights in History, exploring tone and texture in Art and comparing different places of worship to understand why they are special places in RE. Please see our Curriculum newsletter below for more details. 

We are looking forward to working with your child and thank you for all your support in helping your child achieve their full potential.
