Oh my goodness Class 2 - you have been busy!!

Thank you SO much for the amazing videos I have just received. They made me cry because I miss you all so much but they also put a whopping smile on my face seeing you all happy. 

Here they are for you to enjoy too:

P.E. - P.E. this term will be on a WEDNESDAY (indoor dance) and a FRIDAY (outdoor PE). The children can come into school on a Friday dressed in their PE kit, with their uniform in their PE bag ready to change into after. Please ensure your child has warm clothing (school hoodie, tracksuit bottoms and t-shirt) for outdoor PE and suitable trainers. 

Please can the children have their PE kit in school all week in case of timetable changes. 

Reading - it is important that you hear your child read as often as possible. In order to develop their independence skills, the children are responsible for changing their own reading book daily (when necessary). They are encouraged to put their reading folder into the reading tray at the start of the day and change their book at an appropriate time. The focus in year 2 is comprehension, so the children need to be confident in de-coding to have the best possible chance at this. There will be a list of questions you can ask your child when your hearing them read below. Any questions about reading, please do come and see me. 

Homework - this will be sent out on a Tuesday and be due back in the following Monday. Homework consists of: daily reading (please record your comments in reading record books), weekly spellings, a piece of maths homework (Mathletics & Times Tables Rockstars). There will also be reading comprehensions some weeks - these can be done on the sheets. Please spend time learning 2, 5, 10 and 3 times tables, common exception words and working on telling the time. 

There is a topic grid available for homework this half term. Please encourage your child to select one thing per week at the most. (Please see below for a digital copy of this)

Please can we remind you there is a strict no nut policy in school due to severe allergies.
