Year 2
Welcome to year 2
The year 2 team for 2022 - 2023 consists of Miss Cox (2E) and Mr Whitehouse (2F). Our teaching assistants are Miss Pallett (2E) and Mrs McGrevey (2F). Miss Tenchio (2E) and Mrs Carty will also be supporting the children in year 2 this year.
The first topic for year 2 will be all about our local area. Children will be finding out interesting facts all about where we live. They will be using maps and a compass rose to locate amenities around Nuneaton. Finally, they will explore how Nuneaton has changed over time.

For the first half term, year 2 PE days are Wednesday and Thursday. After half term, the PE days will be Tuesday and Thursday. Please familiarise yourself with the uniform policy in relation to PE, including health and safety requirements linked to jewellery.
Please ensure that your child brings in a water bottle and their reading book/record, as well as their link book, every day.
Homework is set on a Friday, and is due in by the following Thursday. Children should be reading to an adult at least three times per week for at least 15/20 minutes each time. Reading can take place with either the book sent home from school or an allocated book on your child's Bug Club. Each book must be recorded in your child's reading record, including any ebooks.
Please ensure that any belongings are labelled - it makes it easier to return when left around school.
