There are 3 classes in Year 2.

The teachers in Year 2 work hard as a team, along with our teaching assistants, to plan and deliver an exciting and informative curriculum for all the children.

The team consists of:
Tawny Owls– Mrs Bradley Knight, Mrs James and the teaching assistant Mrs Garbett.
Tigers- Miss Stallard, Mrs Moon and the teaching assistant Miss Hallam.

Wallabies - Mrs Meer and the teaching assistant Mrs Cannon. 

We share all photos, learning links and messages on our ClassDojo platform.

Experiences throughout our year are linked closely to problem solving, reasoning and becoming independent thinkers and learners. Children will be involved in group work led by a teacher and a teaching assistant and independent work.

Topic work is integral to the school day and classes work on English and Maths that are linked to our topics to encourage enjoyment and a deeper understanding.

In Maths we use the White Rose scheme and children are given many opportunities to problem solve and apply their skills to real life situations.

Children learn to read using phonics following the Little Wandle Revised scheme.  We want the children to gain the skills and confidence to develop a life-long love of reading.

Writing is taught through regular practise including handwriting following the Penpals scheme, dictation (we call it "Quick Write"!) and many opportunities throughout the week to write for different purposes, often linked to other subjects like history, geography or science. 

Work is planned so that all children are given work that is at their level to ensure they are making the most progress they possibly can.

We send home weekly spellings and termly maths work for your child to practise. Thank you for your support with this. 

To send us anything you have been doing or any questions, please message us on the class dojo page. We LOVE to see anything you do at home so please always do share this with us on this area.
