Class 2’s PE days this half term are Monday and Friday. Children come to school in their PE kit. They can come in their trainers, and pumps should always be in school for indoor wear. Please name everything.
PSHE
We are learning about ‘growing and changing’, preparing for the changes coming when we move into a new year group. We will also cover keeping safe online..
Reading
Children in class 2 should read some of their reading book out loud to an adult every night. This is recorded in the green reading record. The book and record must come to school every day to be checked or exchanged. The day the books are changed will vary depending on which reading group your child is in, but you will receive at least two per week. These should be re-read to ensure fluency. Thank you so much for all your support with reading at home.
Please can children bring bookbags every day. They are needed for reading books and letters.
Homework
Homework will be set on Class Dojo every week on Monday. There will also be optional homework.
Playtime Games
Class 2 learned how to play some traditional playtime games, connected to our History topic for this term.
Bug Hunting
As part of their Science topic of Living Thing and Habitats, Class 2 went on a bug hunt around the school grounds.
