Year 2
Week beginning 16th September
Another wonderful week for Year 2 . We have begun learning about our new project 'Scouting Around' and what fun we've had, exploring our forest school, reading maps and writing exciting stories!
Key Information:
'MyMaths' logins have been stuck into the children's reading record.
We look forward to speaking with you at the parent information evening next Wednesday 18th September at 3:30 and 4:30.
Please aim to read with your child at home three times per week, as they will earn a reading raffle ticket for every three reads! In school, an adult will read with your child once per week and change their Rhino Reader book once each week too. In addition, children have ownership over their 'sharing book', which they can change themselves and pick which book they'd like to read.
We are trying to boost vocabulary within our writing in Year 2, so if you come across any powerful vocabulary whilst reading with your child, please ask them to note it in their reading record.
Maths
In maths next week the children will continue to learn about place value, using manipulatives to support their learning.
English
In English, the children will be learning what the features of a story are, reflecting on the story 'Splash' and how to identify narrative features within a text.
Phonics
The sound the children will be learning next week is 'dge' saying /j/ and looking at the different spellings of the /j/ sound. Please see below for the attached parent information sheet.
