Welcome to Year 2
Jasmine Class
Welcome to Jasmine Class!
Here you will find the latest updates of our work in class and any important information that you may need to help support children's learning at home.
Important Notes for Jasmine Class:
PE: This term we will have PE on Monday and Tuesday. Children should bring a PE kit into school on a Monday and we will send it home on a Tuesday.
Reading: Every child will have two reading books to take home.
Reading for pleasure book - This book can be changed at any time and is chosen by your child based on their interests. It may be slightly too easy or too difficult for the children so please read this with them to support.
Little Wandle Phonics Book or Reading Grpoup Book - This book contains the phonic sounds your child has been learning in class, and will have been read in school previously with them. Therefore they should be able to read it independently to you. This book will be given out on a Wednesday and needs to be returned every Friday.
Spring 2:
This half term is going to be a short one but we have got lots of exciting learning to do!
In English, we are going to be looking at the text 'Lila and the Secret of Rain' by David Conway. We will be writing diary entries and setting descriptions for the story which is based in Kenya.
In Maths, we will be looking at fractions and finding half of different shapes and amounts. We will then be looking at quarters and thirds.
In History, we will be continuing to look at The Great Exhibition and the inventions which were created for this event.
For Geography, we will be comparing our local area with Lila's village in Kenya. We will be thinking about human and physical Geography.
In Science, we are going to be working scientifically and conducting some experiments.
In DT and Art we will be looking at mechanisms and wheels and axels.
In PSHE and RE we are going to be thinking about staying safe and religious symbols.
Please see our LTP for Spring 2 for more information.
