You are working so incredibly hard Year 2 and each week is just flying by!
This week in English, the children were introduced to our new focus story ‘The Great Fairy Tale Disaster’. We have really enjoyed reading the beginning of the story, picking out our favourite vocabulary and learning to retell it using story maps and actions. The class have already begun to think what might happen in their own fairy tale disasters and who might be involved. I can’t wait to see more of those Creative Kiki Chameleons as we begin writing in the next couple of weeks Year 2!
Read moreWell done Year 2 - it has been another successful week of learning in class. Tuesday was our first Online Safety Day in school. This day always provides time for us to just stop and think about how we use technology and how we can ensure that we are being safe whilst doing so. We focused on our digital footprint and discussed all of the different software, apps and games that we enjoy using both in school and home. The children found it interesting to learn that everything they access can leave a footprint behind which can often be found by others. Technology is such a wonderful tool for both enjoyment and learning, but it must be used safely and appropriately.
Read moreThe weather may have grown a little colder and darker this week, but this hasn’t stopped Year 2 from working hard and reaching those goals! All of the adults working within Year 2 continue to be amazed by the children’s resilience, enthusiasm and compassion as we continue our learning journeys in these uncertain times. We are all so lucky to be learning in our little bubble and I am so proud of what the children are achieving each day.
Read moreWelcome Back! The children returned back to school on Monday full of enthusiasm and ready for the new term ahead. After finding their new learning spaces and discovering what their new class job for the term will be, it was time to get back into learning. We enjoyed watching an assembly created by Year 6 which brought last term’s virtues ‘grateful and generous’ to a lovely close
Read moreWell, what can I say? What an amazing first half term we have had in Year 2! The children have thrown themselves into every challenge and have worked incredibly hard. I sometimes find it hard to believe that the children have been only been in Year 2 for such a short space of time. Even with the uncertainty and worries around us all at this time, the class have come together as one and have shown just what we can achieve when we all work co-operatively together.
Read moreWhat a week Year 2! It has certainly whizzed past with the amount of learning we have got through!
In RHE we continued to think about ourselves this week, with us paying particular attention to our body parts. It was so lovely to hear the children celebrating their favourite body parts and giving reasons as to why. Amongst others, the children were grateful for their legs for running, their eyes for seeing and their hands for making!
Read moreThe children have continued to amaze all of the adults working within Year 2 this week and we all can’t quite believe how much learning we are continuing to get through each day. I don’t know about the children, but I certainly need a lie down when half past three comes around!
Read moreThat’s yet again another fantastic week of learning completed by the children in Year 2! In maths, the children can’t quite believe that they have finished their first topic of place value and have now begun their addition and subtraction learning. They have made a brilliant start and have used both part part whole models and bar models to create addition and subtraction number sentences. They can’t wait to take this learning even further next week - this class certainly love a challenge!
Read moreI feel as though I am repeating myself each week, but once again, the children have been an absolute delight! We are having such fun as a class team and the children are demonstrating just how focused and how enthusiastic they are. They are all so eager to grow their brains and are an absolute pleasure to teach.
Read moreWhat another amazing week we have had in Year 2! The children are certainly fully back into the swing of things now and are always so eager to discover how their brains will grow each day.
Read moreIt’s hard to believe that the children are only in their second week of Year 2 - they really have slotted into their new class and routine seamlessly. They are most certainly a class up for a challenge, always wanting to learn new things and anticipating what is going to come next. Their enthusiasm and passion for learning is blowing me away each and every day!
Read moreWhat an AMAZING start we have had to the school year here in Year 2! It was truly wonderful to see all of the children’s smiling faces on Tuesday morning. They were all so excited to be reunited with their school friends again and couldn’t wait to discover what was in store for them in the year ahead. They have been so curious about their new routines and settled straight into their new classroom environment … it’s just like they’ve always been here!
Read moreHELLO and a big big welcome to Year 2! September is just around the corner and before we know it, Tuesday and the beginning of the new school year will be here! I CANNOT wait to see all of those smiling faces back in the classroom and to have us all back as a class and whole school community!
