Year 2

Welcome to Year 2!

A very warm welcome from the Year 2 Team - We hope you find our page useful!

About Us

Our Brazil Class team: 

Miss Hatley teaches every day.

We have fabulous teaching assistants who work across the week:

  • Mrs Spahiu (every morning) 
  • Miss Croft (every afternoon)

We also enjoy fun music lessons with our specialist teacher, Mrs Scaber. 

General Reminders
  • Reading books and reading records need to be in school EVERY day. We change reading books on Fridays. 
  • Please make sure your child has a coat in school every day, whatever the weather is like in the morning! Thank you! 
  • Our PE days are Monday and Friday so please make sure your child has a full kit in school that day. 
  • Please include trainers and leggings/joggers in your PE kit so that we can go outside as much as possible. 
  • Please make sure jumpers are named and regularly checked as names fade!
  • Please provide a water bottle with fresh water every day.
Homework
  • We send home a reading book every Friday. You will keep it for one week.
  • We expect your child to read at least 3 times a week.
  • Please write in the Reading Journal every time you read at home.
  • There are suggestions for activities you can do in the back of the book.
  • Please use the questions at the back of the book to check if your child has understood what they have read. 
  • Spellings also go home on a Friday. These are linked to the phonics we are learning that week and may include some tricky words (sometimes called common exception words; those words that are not phonically decodable). 
  • We do a spelling check on the following Friday. 
  • We would also like children to play on Times Table Rock Stars regularly.

Please read our Curriculum Letters so that you can help to support your children's learning.
We publish a new one each term so you can see what your child is learning throughout the year.
