Welcome to the amazing Class 2!
We are a mixed Year 1 and 2 class. Our class teacher is Miss Blount and there are 28 wonderful children in our class. Our lovely TA, Mrs Richards also helps in our class.
On this page you will find all the useful information for the year and you can read all about our topic through the dropdown links on this page.
PE
Our PE days for this half term are Thursday and Friday. Please come in your PE kit on these days.
Reading
Reading takes place as a whole class approach throughout the week.
Year 1 will have daily phonics sessions and they will have a phonics book that goes home on a Friday with the sounds in that they have been working on throughout the week.
Year 2 will have a reading book that they can change when they have read and understood it - please ask children to retell the stories/facts they have read and what they predict will happen next in longer stories.
Please read with your child as much as possible and record their reading in their diary. Please do get in touch if you would like to help with reading - the children love to read to parent/carer helpers!
Homework
Homework will be given as and when needed, e.g. children found addition difficult and more practice would be beneficial. A hand in date will be given at the time it is handed out - usually the following week.
Spellings - Year 2 only
We use Ready, Steady, Spell by Literacy Counts. Spelling is taught daily through different strategies - there are some fun jingles to help learn some of the new spelling rules which are on display in class! Focus common exception words this half term are: was, said, some, come, when, what, school, once, friend
