Year 2 Team 

In year 2 this week...

It's been a fantastic first full week back at school. We have enjoyed getting to know our English core text 'Rapunzel' by Bethan Woolvin and the children have completed some fantastic diary entries in role as Rapunzel.

In Guided reading we have been practising our fluency and comprehension skills, through our core book 'Beegu' by Alexis Deacon.

In phonics we have been recapping the sounds ai, ee, igh and oa. Please make sure to practise your spellings for our spelling test on Wednesday. 

In maths we have been looking at place value and counting in tens and ones.

We are enjoying planning and carrying out experiments as we explore our topic living things in science.

The children have been fantastic in History learning all about castles, kings and queens. This week we looked at the features of a castle. 

We look forward to meeting you at Meet the Teacher on Wednesday 18th September. 

Miss Douch, Mrs Shah and Miss Back.
