Welcome to the Year 2 class page

Welcome to Year 2 - Summer Term 1

My name is Miss Moroney and I am the Year 2 teacher.  We will also have Miss Kesha helping in our classroom.  

Year 2's PE days will be each Wednesday and Friday.  Please ensure your child comes prepared for PE lessons by wearing their PE uniform on these days (white t-shirt, black bottoms and black trainers).

We will be checking reading records each Monday, Wednesday and Friday to ensure the children are reading at home and making progress.  Please make sure you are reading with your children during the evenings, asking questions about the text and filling in their reading records.  Additionally, we will be sending new books home (in book bags), please take care that these school books are returned so that they can be changed.

I will be assigning homework connected to the week's learning (this will be set every Friday).  Please support your child to complete this homework, bringing it back the following Wednesday so that it can be checked.  Also, children will be expected to complete spelling homework each week and they will have a test on these words every Friday.

This half-term our Geography topic will be 'Hackney' and our Science topic is 'Plants'.  In Literacy we will be focusing on poetry and non-fiction texts related to the Great Fire of London.  We will be reading 'The Jolly Postman' by Allen Ahlberg and Janet Ahlberg during our Literacy lessons and looking at past progressive verb tenses and homophones in grammar.  For Maths this term, we will begin a unit on fractions and then focus on statistics.

If you have any questions regarding any of the information on our class page, please feel free to make an appointment with me or speak with me at home time.

I am looking forward to an exciting and successful new term together.

Kind regards,

Miss Moroney
