Your child’s journey through Year 2

Autumn Term Home Learning

We understand that there may be times where you need to isolate at home.  In order to help you keep learning, we have created a home-learning plan for the Autumn term.

Our Learning Letter can be found here: Year 2 Autumn Term Home Learning Letter

Maths Home Learning

This term’s learning is on place value, and simple addition and subtraction within 10. To support this learning at home, we have attached White Rose activity sheets and the associated video.  Listen and watch the video before you complete the activity. There’s no need for a printer, you can copy out the questions onto a sheet of paper.

Autumn Term 2020

Our topic this term is ‘Changes’. 

Please see our curriculum document here: Year 2 – Autumn Curriculum 2020

Spring Term 2020

Our new topic is called ‘Around the World and Beyond’ and has a geography focus.  We begin the topic by exploring the exciting world of dragons and will be given the important responsibility of becoming guardians of our own dragons.  The second half term we’ll be learning about the continents and oceans of the world.  We will be planning our own imaginary adventure around the world and designing and making our own hot air balloons to travel in!  We will be finding out about the geography, animals and the habitats of each continent. We will explore the habitats of the oceans and the diversity of animals they support. Our trip to the London Aquarium will give the children first-hand experience of many amazing sea creatures and will be a great springboard for this learning.
