Year 2

Welcome to Year 2!

This term we have lots of adventures planned to help us answer the essential question:

What wonders lie in the enchanted woods?

We will be investigating our local area investigating road signs and learning map reading skills which will help us create a map for our visitors to follow at our exhibition towards the end of term.

Leader in Me

This term, we are focusing on the values BE PROACTIVE and BEGIN WITH THE END IN MIND. We will learn to be leaders for our own actions, do things without being asked as well as having a clear goal and focus and remain on task to succeed and achieve. These values link with the scripture we are learning:

Do unto others as you would have them do unto you. Matthew 7:12

Growth Mindset

We are continuing to use Growth Mindset to encourage resilience and perseverance for all our children to support and further their learning. Our Collective Worship this term will support this by focussing on mental wellbeing, healthy life-style and positive relationships which links our seventh value of Sharpen the Saw. Further information can be found by following the link below.

Homework.

This term we are trying something new! 

I have created a homework grid with English, Maths, Topic, PSHE, Physical activities as well as one that covers this terms value of Sharpen the Saw. 

Please complete one task per week to be handed in for marking on a Wednesday. After marking last weeks homework, it was enjoyable to share the variety of activities completed by the children, giving them ownership to complete the task that interests them first. 

My Style homework

This half term, the project will be based on a monarchs Coronation. 

 If I were a monarch, what would I wear?

imagine it is your coronation day, create a poster, Powerpoint or 3D artifcat of your possible outfit, jewels and possible additional extras (orb, spectre, sword)
