Welcome to Year 2

In Year 2, we help children build the strong foundations they need to become confident, independent learners. Through daily teaching and practice, children develop their reading, writing and maths knowledge and skills. They read a range of books, build vocabulary and understanding, form letters and sentences, spell words, and learn to use number facts and calculation strategies to solve problems.

We revisit important learning regularly so children can remember it and use it in new situations. Children are encouraged to explain their thinking, try different approaches and take pride in what they can do.

Each Thursday, your child will bring home a reading book matched to their reading ability and, where appropriate, their Little Wandle phonics knowledge. Re-reading the same book throughout the week helps children become more accurate and fluent, while also giving them time to enjoy and understand what they are reading. Please make time to read with your child regularly and talk together about the book.

We are an enthusiastic and motivated class. Our aim is to grow our minds and opinions of the world around us as we eagerly to attempt new things in our broad and balanced curriculum.
