Base 4 - The Dolphins

In our year two class we have Mrs Muir, our class teacher, and Mrs Salter, our teaching assistant.

Each child has a reading diary to record any reading they do, either in school or at home. It is important that children bring their reading diary to school every day so that reading in school can be logged. Children can record any books they read at home, not just their school reading books.

Our usual P.E sessions take place on Mondays and Fridays but P.E. kits can remain in school all week and will be sent home on Friday. Please ensure all P.E. kits and uniforms are clearly labelled to avoid misplacing them.


Value of the season

Value of the season is Hope. In Base 4 we are going to be developing an understanding of what this means and importance of this value.


This term's focus...

This term, our focus in Geography is Seas and Oceans where children will be learning how the world is made up of continents and oceans, along with the countries and capital cities that make up the UK. We will also learn how to identify the human and physical features within the UK and look closely at the coastal areas to identify their features and then compare these to the coastal areas in Egypt!

 

This term, our focus in Science is Plants. We will be investigating what a plant is, how they grow and how they survive through experimentation, observation and recording. At the end of term, the children will bring their own plants home to show what they've learnt in Science and hopefully be able to keep their plants thriving!

Homework

Homework will be set on Thursday's and due in the following Wednesday.

This will consist of a reading comprehension which involves reading a text and completing questions and a maths activity linked to our learning that week to consolidate and secure children's understanding. There will also be a handwriting activity including Year 2 Common Exception words for children to learn these spellings and practice their handwriting. 


 Spellings

Each week children will be exposed to 5 new Word Aware words which will be sent home with homework, these are called Fridge Words and are for you to keep at home on your fridge to question children on the meaning of these words and use them in sentences at home!


Times Tables

This year children will be learning their 10, 5 and 2 timetables.
