Learning this Term – Autumn

English

Across school, we ensure reading is at the heart of everything we do. This term, we are studying The Comet using Jane Considine's approach, and we will be writing our own diary entry relating to The Great Fire of London.

English Writing

We aim to prepare and equip our Year 2 children with the writing skills they need to become confident, independent writers that are able to write effectively for a range of purposes and audiences. Through a balanced and broad curriculum, we provide regular opportunities for children to write from different perspectives and learn how to entertain the reader. 

Maths

The term, the children will be focusing on place value and building their number knowledge to start learning the column method for addition and subtraction.

Humanities

This term, our focus is on learning about the Great Fire of 1666.
