Welcome back Year 2!

Welcome back after another half term, we are officially half way! I hope the children are coming back well rested and are ready for another half term filled with fun and endless opportunities to learn.

In English we are reading a wonderful book – we will discover some of the milestones of recent British history and will have many opportunities to write. We are trying to build stamina for writing, if it could be encouraged at home to write about places they have been or things they like (using fred fingers to support their spelling). Our English book ‘Major Glad, Major Dizzy’ links nicely with our guided reading book ‘Owen and the soldier’ which has a rich vocabulary and has excellent questioning throughout to hook the children.

Within power maths we are learning about length and height and moving onto mass, capacity, and temperature, we are enjoying using resources to support our learning. Why don’t you measure things around your house and bring them in and we can compare with objects in class?

In Geography we are using our key question of ‘Why is our world wonderful’ to learn about some of the UKs most amazing features and landmarks and to find out where some of the most amazing places are.

PE will take place every Wednesday – ensure full kit is in school every week and that each item is clearly named.

All children should be bringing a water bottle into school – we are lucky in Year 2 that we get milk, although this is at breaktime, and we have two lessons before this of a morning and learning is thirsty work!

It is absolutely imperative that children are reading at least 3 times per week at home, as we head into this term children will participate in test week and the more they read, the better chance they have of succeeding across the curriculum as they progress through the year/remainder of their education.

We have our class assembly to prepare for – which we will perform to parents/guardians on Friday 8th March.

As always, I’m grateful for your continues support and if you have any queries please do not hesitate to ask.

Miss Ginley
