Year 2 2019-20
Welcome to Year 2
We hope that you've had a fantastic summer and that you're ready for a busy start to Year 2.
Here you can find: updates on our learning, curriculum information, letters, spellings, reminders and much more.
Keep checking regularly for updates.
In Autumn 1 our topic is: All About Me and Where I Live!
Our main focus will be Geography and we will be looking at where we live and who we are. We will locate our local area on a map and use different sources to explore our local area, using appropriate vocabulary to describe what it is like. In Science, we will be looking in depth at the life-cycles of humans and animals. We will also be learning about what helps to keep us healthy and hygienic. In Art, we will research the collage work of Henri Matisse and use his work as inspiration for our own personal collages.
(See curriculum information below for a more detailed breakdown on what we will be learning.)
PE kits are needed in school Monday to Friday.
