Shwmae Blwyddyn Dau!

Croeso!

Welcome to our Year 2 Class Page. The aim of this page is to keep you updated on any important information about our class and to show you some of the wonderful activities we have been completing. 

We are so proud of you all and you are working really hard. 

A few reminders;

- PE is now on a Thursday, so please come to school dressed ready for PE

- Please bring fruit to school every day

- Please return homework on a Monday.

- Please return reading books every day. 

- Please label all jumpers, coats, hats, etc with your names. This really helps us to keep them safe.

We hope that you are all joined to our Class Dojo page and our school Facebook page as we also post lots of updates, using these platforms too. 

As always any questions, please pop in or send a Dojo message.

These websites all have a Literacy or Numeracy focus. They are short and snappy games, aimed at allowing the children to practice basic skills taught in class. Please encourage the children to use a range of these games for short bursts. They can all be accessed from any device, that is able to access the internet.

Our Topic - Long Long Ago!

In Year 2, we are going to be completing a topic based on history and how the world around us has changed.

We will be learning about different periods of history from the Celts to the present day. We will learn about the different elements of this period - food, clothes, armour, homes, etc.

We will, of course, be celebrating the Queens Jubilee - this will help focus our activities, we will look at her reign and the different decades of her reign. We are all looking forward to our Jubilee celebration!

We are also looking forward to continuing our PE lessons, every Thursday afternoon! We are working very hard for sports day. These lessons are so much fun!

We will also be continuing our 'Friendship Friday' sessions, we enjoy working and learning together. 

Weekly Timetable 

Monday

• Home learning and reading folders to be returned to school

Thursday

• Physical literacy session with Nathan the sports coach - P.E kit can be worn to school

Friday

• Spelling tests 
• New home learning and spelling words sent home

Please make every effort to read at home with your child. Just a page or two a day will be really beneficial and help your child to develop their reading skills. Reading books can be brought into school daily, and we will try our best to find five minutes for individual readers. Reading books will be changed around once per week, if we feel your child needs a new book. There may be occasions where reading books will be sent home for more practise, this will be communicated in your child's reading record. 

Home learning books are sent home on Fridays and should be returned to school for marking on the following Monday. This is a chance for you to engage in some learning activities at home with your child, and builds on learning that we have been doing in class.
