We've started working on our Art to Start in Year 2, thinking about people who are significant to us! From parents and siblings to mathematicians and musicians, we have loved drawing them out for our very own Beatles-inspired band cover! Come and take a look at our Art to Start when it goes up next week!
Please find attached this week's spelling for everyone! We will be testing your children next Friday (7th March). Please make sure spellings are practised in the best way for your child. Remember the sheet is a guide and we love seeing the creative ways everyone practices their spellings!
The RAPS Literacy Festival will be running from Monday 3rd March to Friday 7th March
Welcome back to Term 4. We hope you have had a lovely half term!
Keep an eye out on the blog to find out more about the children's learning in school! We have a short, but busy Term 4 with Personal Development Week, RAPS Literacy Festival, a Theme Day and lots of exciting new learning!
Our PE days are back to Monday and Wednesday now and a friendly reminder to ensure your child brings their reading book/folder in every day.
Year 2 team :)
What a fantastic day we had on Friday with a whole school day of Maths!
The children had a great day working systematically to create their own witches' potions with Miss Millidine, investigated a city building problem with Miss Morris, built their own robots with Mr Brown and used their new learning about money to go shopping for ingredients at Mr Brun-Cialis' magic shop! Ask them all about it :)
Today, we planted daffodils and other flowers in our school beds and planters! It was so much fun digging in the soil and placing the bulbs around the playground. Everyone was so excited to help, and we can't wait to see the beautiful flowers growing! Thank you again to our parents and carers who were able to help!
Please find attached the spellings for week 5! The children will be tested on these spellings on Friday 14th February.
Money in Year 2!
Thanet Primary Schools' Cross Country Event - Quex Park, Saturday 1st March 2025
For our next unit of writing, we are writing our own instruction texts in the form of recipes! Today, we talked about what an instructional text is and how it must be precise and explicitly clear to ensure a great outcome! We learnt about how imperative verbs (bossy verbs) are used for this. To show our growing knowledge, we were tasked with teaching Miss Amin how to make a sandwich, which was trickier than we thought! Then, we had a go at instructing our talk partners, being precise and brushing up on our oracy skills too! What fun we had!
