-France Class- (Year 2)

WELCOME BACK TO FRANCE CLASS!

It has been so lovely to have all the children back, even though there are quite a few changes to their daily routines they have all settled in well and we are now very adept at the new way of doing things.

I am looking forward to spending the year with France class, learning new skills, gaining even more knowledge than they already have and making some fun memories.

Fingers crossed that we all stay well,

Mrs White

ENGLISH

Our English work for the first 4 weeks will be based on the book 'Here We Are' by Oliver Jeffers. The whole school are using the same text as it deals with many different issues that have arisen over the past 6 months. Not only is it supporting our English, but it is also giving us time to think about our feelings, ideas, opinions and understanding of the wider world.

At the moment Key Stage One, are looking at this page,We are thinking about how some of these animals are endangered and why. We will be posting our work on here soon.

PHONICS

At the moment we are spending some time identifying where your child is with their phonics, we will be revising many digraphs and trigraphs to support them with their phonics screening test in November. There are many great websites and games online that can support your child with their phonics, please see the bottom of the page to find a few.

MATHS

In our maths lessons we are concentrating on place value, and recognising what each digit means in a two digit number up to 100. We will also be counting in 2s, 3s, 5s and 10s. There are some useful websites at the bottom of this page if you would like to continue to support your child with their maths at home.

TOPIC

Our Topic at the moment is called Brainwave and we are thinking about what our brain does, how we can look after it and what we need to do to become better learners.

This topic will be coming to an end shortly, and our nest topic is called Superhumans, a science based topic looking at our bodies and senses.
