Autumn 1
Welcome back! In Year 2 we have been getting back into the swing of it, settling back into school routines.
Weeks 1 & 2
In Maths we have started our first unit: numbers within 100. We have been looking at partitioning numbers in to tens ones.
In English we have started Meerkat Mail, following Sunny the meerkat as he travels far and wide! We have written character descriptions of Sunny using impressive vocabulary choices. We have also answered some retrieval questions based on the story so far.
We have started our first Science unit, looking into materials and their uses. The children have been identifying different materials and describing their properties.
In Geography, we have been discussing the Big Question: Why do we like to be beside the sea? We have identified similarities and differences between urban, rural and coast. The children have also been sharing different activities they like to do beside the sea!
In Computing the children looked at how to be safe online - creating informative posters based on their learning.
In RE and Worldviews, we have been thinking about what our worldviews are and what influences them.
Homework & Spellings
This week children will practice gn and kn spellings and complete a place value worksheet.
Week 3
This week we have done lots of learning in Year 2.
In Maths we have continued to develop our knowledge of numbers within 100. We have been ordering, comparing and sequencing numbers within 100.
The children really enjoyed watching the Number Gators song!
In English, we have continued to follow Sunny's travels across the desert. We have practiced using capital letters, full stops and question marks and the applied these skills to a postcard written from the perspective of Sunny if he visited London. It seems as though he had lots of fun!
In Science, we investigated how materials can change and experimented with twisting, bending, stretching and squashing a variety of materials.
In Geography, we continued our Big Question investigation, and learned about food chains and rockpools. We talked about what animals might live in a rockpool and how food chains work.
In Art we have been exploring different materials and textures, using graphite, charcoal and chalk to experiment. We then created texture rubbings with different things found in the playground.
Homework & Spellings
This week children will practice their wr spellings and complete an ordering numbers activity sheet.
17/09/26 We believe that developing strong speaking and listening skills is key to our children’s confidence and success. Our weekly class oracy assemblies provide a fantastic opportunity for pupils to practise clear communication, active listening, and respectful discussion. From storytelling to debate, every child is encouraged to share their thoughts and ideas in a supportive environment.
