PE

In Year 2, PE is taught every Wednesday.

Please ensure your child has their named PE kit in school all week.

Forest School and Outdoor Classroom

In Year 2, all children take part in learning activities outside the classroom twice a week with Mrs Brining and Miss Fail.  Please ensure they have the appropriate clothing for the time of year and named wellington boots.

Homework

Every half term, your child will receive a homework matrix. These activities are mostly linked to subjects covered in class. We ask that one task is completed per week (you don’t have to do all nine!) and that you initial and date each activity completed. Evidence of homework can be glued into children’s books, photographs tweeted or emailed to us, or items brought into school! We will collect homework books in on a Wednesday morning.

Reading

We are a reading school and actively encourage reading throughout the week. As well as the reading pupils enjoy at school, we would also like children to read to an adult at home at least three times per week.

Spellings

Spelling lists can be found in the children’s spelling book as well as in the Spelling Box below. Children should learn all 10 spellings and explore the spelling pattern set as part of the homework. A spelling activity will take place every Wednesday.
