Autumn 2

Welcome to the Year 2 class pages!
 
Here you will find regular updates of our current learning, ways to help at home and knowledge organisers for each subject. Please have a look at these updates with your child and find time to talk about the new skills and knowledge. If you have any questions or comments please feel free to come and talk to us or email the school office.
Show and tell
 
We do show and tell on a Friday if we have time at the end of the day. This is only for stories of things the children have done or items that hold significant value to them. We have decided not to do toys as these can cause arguments during the day times or can make other children upset that they do not have these things. 
 
Thank you for understanding!
Knowledge Organsisers
 
Please take a moment to look through and talk about the knowledge organisers with your children. This will help them to remember the things that they have learned in their lessons!
Week 1 
 
Welcome back everyone! The children have been working hard this week in maths looking at adding and subtracting across ten for example - 25+26=             
We have been adding the ones first so - 5+6=11
Then the tens 20+20=40
Then adding it all together 40+11=51 
This is notoriously tricky for children of this age and if your child can crack this then they will level up their maths ability! This will help them through the year with other topics too. 
 
In English we have been looking at traditional fairytales and more specifically Cinderella. In the coming weeks we will be writing our own versions of this classic story! 
 
In Computing we have been looking at Algorithms which are instructions for computers. helping your child understand the vocabulary in the Knowledge Organiser will enable them to access the learning more independently. 
 
Good work year 2, keep it up!
