Welcome back after the summer holiday. It is lovely to be back at school and I am really excited for this academic year (I hope the children are too).
Year 2 will certainly be action packed as we have some excellent topics planned for your child. This term our topic is Animals and we shall begin with our Inspiration Day on Wednesday 5th September. Throughout the day the children will be taking part in various animal themed crafts, research and discussion. In the afternoon we are fortunate to be having an animal expert come to visit us with his animal collection including a lizard, a snake and an owl! This term our topic activities will include finding out about: Continents and oceans Animal groupings Henri Rousseau Online safety Colour and tone Managing feelings Forgiveness Please make sure your child’s PE kit is in school at all times Reading at school and at home is incredibly important for your child’s progress and their reading book should be in school every day. Your child will be given a home reading book which they should be able to read 95% accuracy. Your child will read this book to an adult in school and their books will be changed daily or when they have finished the book. Guided reading sessions will take place every week across the school. This is when the teacher teaches the children skills needed to become a confident reader. It is in these sessions that the teacher assesses the children’s reading ability. Our PE days are Tuesday and Thursday Please make sure your child’s named PE kit is in school at all times. Here’s to a great year- Let’s get started!
