Autumn Term 2024
We have had a fantastic start in Class 2 and we are looking forward to continuing our learning journey the rest of the year.
Maths
This half term we are looking at place value with numbers and practicising counting in 2s, 3s, 5s and 10s. We will also be working on our addition and subtraction skills and using these skills with 2 digit numbers.
Writing
In writing this term we will be writing our own short stories based on The Bear and The Piano and Little Red Reading Hood. We will also be writing a travel journey looking at the wildlife in Africa.
Reading
We will be continuing with Read Write Inc this half term so the children are able to practice their sounds and reading skills before moving onto developing our reading skills later in the year.
Science
This term we are looking at Materials and why things are made of certain materials rather than others.
Geography
Our first geography topic this year is Woodlands and we are lucky to be located so close to Canklow Woods to aid their learning.
RE
This half term we will be looking at the Jewish faith and comparing this with other religions we have previously learned about.
PSHE
We are looking at our relationships this half term and how we can be good friends.
PE
We will be building on our skills in throwing and catching this half term and using these skills in games.
Music
This year we will be receiving lessons on how to play the recorder. The first half term will be looking at how to correctly hold the recorder and where the different notes are.
Computing
We are looking this half term at the information technology we have around us.
Art
We will be learning about portraits this term and the symbolism in them.
We have read:
READING!
We will be looking at developing a real love of reading this year and story time is an important time for us to share stories.
The first book we will be reading as a class is:
Learning at home
Reading at home is always a very positive thing to do for the children in year 2. We read a lot in class and children can read the books sent home or anything they wish. This will always improve their skills and fluency too.
At half term and other holidays if any children would like to take work home to practice their learning over the holidays this will be provided.
