Year 2
Week Beginning 19th May 2025
Next week, it is the final week of term but also it is our trip to the Oceanrium on Monday! We are all excited for trip! Please remember that it is PE Kits and not uniform. It is likely to be hot so please ensure that your child is wearing sun cream and brings plenty of water.
Maths
Next week, the children will be revisiting number operations and look at word problems in particular.
English
The children will be editing and improving their stories that they have written based on Shark Lady.
Phonics
The children will be revising the sounds and spelling patterns leaned over the year so far.
Whole Class Reading
This term, the children will be move onto books based around sea creatures. They will read Jessie the Jellyfish by Laurie Newman.
Key Information:
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.
