Please click on the 'Learning Journey' attachments below to find out more details about the wonderful topics and activities we will be exploring during Spring Term.

We love to read in Year Two and enjoy reading our individual home reading books and joining in during guided reading sessions in class. Plus each day we read books from our library and share these with our class friends.

If you have got a special book that you enjoy reading at home then bring it into class to share with us. 

We look forward to hearing all about it!

Writing is a huge focus for us all this school year. We will be using our new 'cursive' handwriting during this term with entrance and exits flicks. Please remember to practise your handwriting at home. Print the 'A-Z' document below to help you at home. We will be looking very carefully and rewarding pupils who a have made progress with their handwriting skills and those who have shown a great improvement in presentation with special rewards at the end of term. So practise, practise, practise and it could be you!

Things to remember:

• Book bags - Bring these into school  every day to avoid missing out on notes home and book changes
• Y2 After School Clubs  -  Wednesday Art,  Wednesdays Gospel Choir (Pick up from St Hugh's)
• Swimming Kit - Wednesdays
• PE Kit - Fridays
• Homework - Given out every Friday, to be returned by the following Friday. (Includes; spellings, English tasks, Maths tasks linked to current topics in class, research tasks in learning logs linked to RE or Creative curriculum )
