Our final term in Year 2 awaits us, what will we get up to?
English sessions we will be looking at a high quality picture book. We read this at intervals so don't want to reveal the story fully as we "unwrap" this lovely text together during our lessons.
Maths sessions will focus on fractions, ratio and proportion. Multiplication and division, measure, statistics, number and place value, problem solving, reasoning and algebra. So another very busy term for maths. Whilst, also revisiting the four basic operations of addition, subtraction, division and multiplication each day and times tables (x2 x5 and x10). Don't forget you can use TT Rockstars!
This term is Local History and why it is significant. We will be investigating lots of local history in Formby using the outdoors and surrounding areas. If you have local history to share and would like to come in and talk to the children please let us know they would so enjoy this!
Our Science topic is "Living things and their habitats" The Science Knowledge Organiser contains more information in the link below.
Our RE topics explore Rules and Treasure.
Art we will initially be looking at the work of Romare Bearden and exploring "The Block" creating our own collective piece. In Music we focus "On this Island" exploring British songs and sounds. In Computing we focus on Coding where lots of fun is to be had.
Homework will be sent out on a Thursday and is due to be handed in the following Wednesday.Each week your child will bring home a homework book and using Google Classroom or worksheet to enable them to complete the work in their books. Please keep listening to your child read it is so important that your child reads daily (Reading is a passport to countless adventures).
P.E. for Class 2 will be on Tuesday (Dance) and on Friday (Field Games) and the children should come into school wearing their P.E. kits on these days.
Please check Google Classroom, Instagram and the class page regularly for activities, updates and photographs of what we have been getting up to in class.
Our core aim in Class 2 is that your child's time in school is enjoyable, exciting and full of enriching learning experiences with a smile on their faces :)
If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to ask at the school door or email [email protected]
Let's all try out best and make this a great Summer term!
