Autumn Term 2
Welcome to Year 2. Our topic for Autumn Term 2 is 'Growth' and our current class book is 'The Emperor's Egg'. Children will the opportunity to learn about how animals, including humans, grow and survive in their various settings during our Science lessons. Children will also be learning to describe the life-cycles of different animals (including humans).
In Maths we will be covering addition and subtraction with numbers up to 100 using various representations such as the column method, partitioning, bar models, part-part-whole models as well as reasoning skills when problem solving. In addition to this area of Maths, children will be introduced to 2D and 3D shapes and will have the opportunity to explore the features of shapes using mathematical vocabulary such as 'vertices', 'edges', and 'dimensions'.
History this term will be covering significant people and children will be able to identify historical figures on a timeline as well as using primary and secondary sources to create a fact file (and more!) on these figures.
There will be lots of educational visits and special events and more information will be sent home about these. In the meantime, if you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact one of the Year 2 team. Thank you!
