Class 2

We are Class 2! Our teacher is Miss Greenhalgh and our teaching assistant is Mrs Martin.

Autumn Term

We are loving our new classroom and getting to know the new rules and routines of life in Year 2. We are very excited to be able to explore and engage in the creative and engaging activities Miss Greenhalgh has planned for us.

During the first half term, we will look closely at our local county of Lancashire and our local area of Edenfield. In geography, we will look at different maps, digital and paper, and locate Lancashire. We will look at where abouts it is located in England and its surrounding counties. In music we will look at different sounds and musical vocabulary and expand our knowledge of rhythm. In science, we will be identifying different materials and their properties and finding out which materials are waterproof or not. During design technology, we will be making money boxes from recycled plastics and looking at how the ocean is affected by plastic and what we can do to improve this.

In English, we will be reading ‘Katie Morag Delivers the Mail’ and responding in lots of different ways before eventually writing our own version of the story changing the characters, setting and simple plot. We will also be reading non-fiction texts all about ‘plastic pollution’ and finding out ways we can save the oceans by reducing, reusing and recycling.

We will be following our programme of work for maths known as Red Rose Mastery Maths and cover: number and place value, addition and subtraction, 2D and 3D shapes, measures and multiplication and division.

After half term, we will start rehearsals for our nativity and have lots of exciting Christmas activities to look forward to.
