Welcome to year 2

The year 2 team for 2020/21 consists of Miss Cox (2E) and Miss Cunningham (2F), along with our teaching assistants Mrs McGrevey (2E), Mrs Richardson (2E) and Mrs Billa-Patel (2F).

Twisted Tales

This term, year 2 will be visiting fairy tale land.  The children will be reading, memorising and adapting different fairy tales including lesser known tales in shared reading and writing sessions.  Each week, the children will also be learning about the countries of the United Kingdom and animals from around the world.

Maths

Underneath we have uploaded information about the maths unit the children are currently looking at.  The vocabulary and key learning strands are detailed on this page.  This week's unit is all about place value. 

Children will be looking at the value of each digit, hundreds, tens and ones.  Using this understanding they will then begin to compare numbers which are greater than, less than or equal to, recognise where a number sits within a hundred square in relation to other numbers and solve problems.
