Our Curriculum

The Year 2 curriculum builds upon and extends the experiences that children have had in Year 1 and they will continue to learn through exciting topics.

We teach topics creatively so that most subjects and concepts will link to the topic and so that children remain motivated, enthused and eager learners. The children will become independent readers and writers as the year advances.

The topics we study in Year 2 are:

Autumn 1 - The Enchanted Woodland

Autumn 2 - Let's Celebrate

Spring 1 - Fire, Fire!

Spring 2 - Great Women Who...

Summer 1 - Busy Bees

Summer 2 - Amazing Africa

P.E is on a Monday and Tuesday. Please can you ensure that children have kit for both indoor (shorts, t-shirts and pumps) and outdoor PE (Warm tracksuit) as we do as much P.E as we can outside (weather permitting).

Homework / Helping at home

Homework will reinforce what has been happening throughout the week and we would encourage your child to always try their best.

Spellings will be uploaded to Class Dojo every Monday. These will be taught, practised and reinforced throughout the week. The learning of spellings will be assessed the following Monday.

A Maths task will also be uploaded to Class Dojo every Monday.

We will provide a reading book which is the appropriate level for your child and would encourage your child to read daily at home.
