PE days are Wednesdays and Fridays. The children will need to come to school in their PE kit on these days. PE kit should consist of a navy or white t-shirt and navy/black shorts or navy/black tracksuit bottoms or leggings. Children will need pumps or trainers because we will be outside as much as possible. PE lesson will be taught by Mr Yasin.
Reading Books
Please can you ensure that your child brings their reading book to school with them everyday. This allows us to listen to your child read more frequently. Books will be changed on Tuesdays.
Please try to listen to your child reading for at least 5-10 minutes each day. Sharing a book at bedtime or reading a story to your child will help them develop a love for reading!
Spellings
Spelling Tests take place on Fridays and new spellings will be given out on the same day. Words will be given to your child in a spelling book to learn. Please make sure that your child looks after their book and that you check it regularly. Thank you.
Homework
Children have the opportunity to complete activities from the topic homework menu. These activities link to the learning we will be doing in class that half term.
and finally....
If you have any questions about Year 2 and the things we do, please come and talk to either Mrs Richards, Mr Dunderdale or Miss Paterson.
