Year 2

In Year 2, the children develop their independent learning approaches within a supportive and considerate environment. The Year 2 team work closely together to create a thorough curriculum that inspires children to embrace learning challenges.

We are

  • 2 Maurice - Miss Lee, Mrs Parker & Mrs Mustafarj
  • 2 Kahlo - Miss Knight, Miss Mills & Miss Brack
  • 2 Klimt - Mr Ebsworth, Mrs Hinde & Mrs Holder

We are lucky to be supported by our HLTA, Miss Heycock

What's in an owl pellet?

In Science this term, we have been exploring animals including humans. During our food chains lesson, we were very lucky to have been provided with owl pellets! This helped us to understand food chains. 

 

We dissected the owl pellets and couldn't believe the amount of small bones inside. This must mean the owl eats meat. 

 

Did you know? Owl pellets are food and bones that the owl cannot digest so vomits back up.

Helping at Home

Ways to help at home

  • Read every day
  • Practise your spellings and common exception words
  • As you read spot the sounds in words, can you find digraphs (two letters that make one sound) and trigraphs (three letters that make one sound)?
  • Count in 2s, 5s and 10s forwards and backwards
  • Learn your number bonds for all numbers to 20 (e.g number bonds to 7 are 1+6, 2+5, 3+4, etc.)
  • Practise telling the time to the hour, quarter past, half past, quarter to and as an extra challenge to 5 minute intervals (five past, ten past etc.)
  • Practise letter formation using the correct pencil grip and develop fine motor skills (peg pressing, picking pasta shells/rice with tweezers)
