Year Two
Welcome to Year Two
Miss Martin and Miss Smith
Our topic for the Summer term is 'Magnificent Monarchs'
This project teaches children about the English and British monarchy from AD 871 to the present day. Using timelines, information about royal palaces, portraits and other historical sources, they build up an understanding of the monarchs and then research six of the most significant sovereigns.

We will also study some companion projects. More information about our topics, and some ideas for ways in which you can support your child's learning at home, are attached at the bottom of the page.
PE Days
Our PE days are THURSDAY (outdoor) and MONDAY (indoor). Please ensure that children come to school in their school PE kits on these days - plain white T shirt, black bottoms and a red, grey or black hoodie or jumper.
Home Learning
Each week the children will be sent home with spellings to practice, which they will be tested on weekly, and a piece of maths or punctuation and grammar learning which will be based on the learning in class that week.
Reading
Reading is so important and as such is valued and encouraged in school as well as at home. Children will be given a reading book according to their reading assessments, these will be changed weekly. We would encourage reading at home as much as possible and if this can be recorded in their reading dairies then they will be awarded certificates in school. We like to hear the children read as much as we can in school so therefore we ask that book bags and reading records are brought to school every day please.
