Reading:

In Year 2, children should read for at least 15/20 minutes every night and talk about the book.

This will help with understanding the text and learning new words.

Remember you will get a sticker on your book mark for every book you read!

Spelling:

Please practise these spellings for your quiz on Friday (20.06.25):

Monday Tuesday Wednesday Thursday Friday Saturday Sunday

Counting:

Count in 2s, 5s and 10s forwards and backwards to 100. See how fast and accurate you can get.

Look at how they relate to the 2s, 5s and 10 times tables.

Times Tables:

We were busy doing our assembly rehearsals so did not do our quiz this week.

We will quiz your knowledge of the 2 times tables in a muddled order on Thursday (19.06.25)

English

During our lessons this week, we have been working on our comprehension skills and recapping things we learnt about in spelling, grammar and punctuation.

Our current topic is Place Value.

The children have been learning to partition numbers in different ways. We also learnt to use the greater than >, less than < and equals signs = in number sentences.

R.E.

We have spent a lot of time this week preparing for our assembly about God's wonderful world. The children have been writing prayers, designing posters, singing and dancing.

Next week we will be learning about the Fruits of the Holy Spirit.

P.E

 We have been busy learning the dance moves for this years 'Dance from the Heart' celebration.

Year 2 have picked up the moves very quickly and bring so much energy to the dance.

Art

After drawing music inspired sketches last week, the children used these to paint larger pieces of abstract art. The results were fabulous!

We studied the artist - Wassily Kandinsky.
