Class 2G - Year 2
Class 2G - Year 2
Welcome to 2G.
Welcome back Year 2.
I hope you have all had a well-deserved rest over the Christmas break. Thank you for all our cards, gifts and Christmas wishes, we are very grateful.
What a lovely first half term we had, I am so proud and impressed with how incredible the children were in their nativity ‘The Bethlehem Fleece Force’, they really did try their best to learn their lines, lyrics and movement! They exceeded all expectations and gave very believable performances. All of which, could not have been done without the support at home.
We will be exploring shape within Maths and then moving onto ‘Multiplication and division facts’ for times tables, please ensure you continue to work on TTRockstars at home to improve fluency with times table facts. (Logins are inside their reading record)

Within our English lessons, we will be reading ‘The Dragon Machine’ the children will have many writing opportunities whereby they can build up their writing stamina and increase their vocabulary.
Please check out the Year 2 overview for this term to give an insight of what we will be learning.
A named water bottle must be sent in – it can be topped up, if necessary, in class – and taken home daily for washing. Please ensure that your child’s P.E kit is in school.
All uniforms need to be clearly labelled please.
Reading regularly at home is proven to improve your child’s confidence, builds self-esteem and expands their vocabulary. Please ensure you are listening to your child read at least 5 times per week. Reading with your child regularly increases accuracy and fluency. It is very important to discuss the book with your children to ensure they understand what they are reading.

Important Information
- Book bags must be brought to school daily, try to read at home every day just a few pages to build their fluency. It is vital that children are reading at home and bringing their book bags in every day to ensure that we can read with the children.
- Children receive fruit for the morning break, but they may bring in a healthy snack if they would prefer their own.
- Phonics begins at 9 am, children must be in school on time, if they are late, they will be missing their sound of the day. Coming into school late can leave the children feeling very worried and anxious, ensure they are in school at 8.50 am. The gates open at 8.45 am.
- 2G and 2A – will both have PE on Tuesdays (bring PE kit and change in school)
On Thursday children will come to school in their kit for gymnastics in the morning.
BETTER LATE THAN NEVER, BUT NEVER LATE IS BETTER.
