Year Two - Lines to learn for our Christmas Show

We have given the children in Year Two some lines to learn for their Christmas Show. This is a play that we are looking forward to performing entitled "The Inn-Spectors" by Nikki Lewis.

Year Two - Home Learning - Europe Challenge

Year TWO Home Learning                           

COUNTRIES IN EUROPE CHALLENGE!

Can you find out the names of some of the countries in Europe?

If you look at a map of Europe you could see where these countries are. Which ones are close to England? Which are further away? Which countries are bigger and which are smaller?

Next week, we will challenge the children in Year Two to name as many countries in Europe as they can.

Can you learn the names of five?----ten? --- or maybe, twenty?--- even more?!!

Year Two - Book Bags and Accelerated Reader Books

Please can you encourage your children to bring their book bags to school every day. The book bag should contain their Log books and their Reading Books.
All children should have an ongoing "Accelerated Reader" book (from the library) which will ideally be kept in their book bags whenever it is not being read. There will be various opportunities during the school week for children in Year Two to read their "Accelerated Reader" books and take the accompanying quizzes.

Year Two - Bicycles in English Lessons

Bicycles in Year Two English Lessons

This week in our English Lessons we have be using the theme of “Bicycles” to develop our writing.

The children have had to collect facts about bicycles and group these facts into sections or paragraphs. (A non-chronological report set out like this is more useful to the reader and easier to read.)

The children in Year Two have done some really good written work.

Do make sure you have a look.

Design a poster encouraging people to wear a proper cycle helmet when they are riding their bikes. Make sure that you remind people that the helmet needs to fit properly.

Bling Your Bike Day

A great big WELL DONE to all of the children who "blinged" their bicycles and scooters today!
We had a fantastic turn-out! Around half of the children in the school brightened the hall with a fabulously bright and colourful display.
