PE DAYS

This term our P.E. days are on Monday and Wednesday.

HOMEWORK:

In Year 2 we expect children to read to an adult every day and to have their reading records signed by an adult. For the first few weeks, they will bring home a book linked to Phonics and will keep this for the whole week. They will then be given a banded book based on their level of fluency and comprehension which should be read at least twice.  They can also share a library book with an adult. 

Year 2 get two pieces of homework to complete every week.  They will be given a Maths or reading comprehension activity each week and will be given a spelling activity every week, which will include some spellings to practise and learn. 

Homework is given out on Friday and due back in school by Wednesday each week.

 

AUTUMN TERM THEME – HOMES UNDER THE HAMMER

This term within our ‘Homes Under the Hammer’ theme we will be exploring everything to do with homes.

  

We will be looking at questions such as:

What different homes are there in our local area? 

What are homes like in different parts of the world?

What were homes like during the Great Fire of London and what happened during this event?

Which materials would be suitable for making the different parts of a house?

We will also be reading lots of stories in familiar settings, including some set in homes.

For more details about what we will be learning please look at the overview at the bottom of this page. 

At the bottom of the page you will also find some key information about this year.  If you have any questions please speak to us at the classroom door or pop a note in your child's red book.
