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 Responsibility. 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 about understanding where in the world we are! We will be exploring our local area of Trench through fieldwork and use maps to understand our relation to Telford and Wrekin and the United Kingdom. We will also learn the four cardinal directions of North, East, South and West and begin to understand how to identify human and physical features in our environment to support us in constructing a map with simple geographical symbols.

This term in Science we are investigating materials and their properties. We will observe, record and measure data to understand how their properties determine their uses and begin to use scientific terms to describe every day materials around us. We will then use this knowledge in our following term to support us in textiles during D&T!

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.
