Year 2
Welcome to Year 2!
Hello and welcome to Year 2!
We have a fun and busy year ahead of us where we will continue to build upon everything we have learnt so far. In addition, we will have many opportunities that will help us to grow and become more confident. We will enjoy learning new topics and learning the Year 2 Curriculum in preparation for the KS1 Assessments in May.
The following information and resources are to support you and to keep you updated on our learning journey in Year 2.

P.E
Year 2 have their PE lessons on a Tuesday and a Friday. On PE days it is expected that children come to school in their PE kit. This is a plain white t-shirt, plain blue tracksuit bottoms or shorts and plain black/white trainers or plimsolls. Children should also ensure that they do not wear earrings on PE days for health and safety reasons.
Homework/Home Reading
Homework is set on Google Classroom every Thursday. Maths homework is generally set on the My Maths website. Practice of the 2x, 3x, 5x and 10x tables can be done on the Times Table Rock Stars website.
Each week children will be provided with a reading and library book to support their reading at home. It is recommended that children read for at least ten minutes/day.
All homework should be completed and returned by Tuesday. Homework set on Google Classroom should be handwritten and completed in the homework books provided.

What are Year 2 learning this week?
English
The children worked in small groups to act out their own stories which were set in the amazon rainforest.
Maths
This term the children have improved their understanding in place value and enjoyed comparing numbers using the greater than and less than symbols.
RE
To celebrate our class saint, St Martin de Porres, the children created animal masks, role- played at being vets and thought about how they could emulate the qualities of St Martin de Porres. St Martin de Porres is the patron saint of equality and justice. He was very humble and believed in treating all of God’s creatures, people and animals with equal respect.
Computing
We have used Scratch Junior to make quizzes. Here we are asking, "Who lives here?" and you have to click on the correct animal.
