Class 2

Welcome to Year 2 and the end of Key Stage One. English and Maths are taught every morning in our class along with spelling and grammar activities.  The children will either follow the Read Write Inc programme or reciprocal reading up until Christmas before continuing reciprocal reading in the Spring Term.   Spelling is a big focus in the Year 2 English Curriculum so the children will be practising this three times a week through the Read, Write Inc spelling programme.  Foundation subjects are taught through Learning Challenges.

In Year 2, we follow the school’s traffic light system.  ‘Green behaviours’ are rewarded with stickers and weekly certificates given in ‘Celebration assembly’.

The children are encouraged to develop independence and problem solving skills through using ‘Gem Power’.  This encourages the children to;

  • notice a problem and think of ways to solve it
  • keep focused and avoid distractions
  • bounce back from mistakes and disappointment
  • work well as a part of a team.

These powers allow the children to approach challenges with increasing confidence and determination, making them a ‘Purple Learner’.
