Reading Children should read everyday to an adult. The adult or child will need to comment and the adult needs to sign the reading record. We will be encouraging the children to read every day at home. There is no set book change day and the children are encouraged to change their own book. The children can keep and read the same book if they would like to increase fluency and enjoyment of reading. We also encourage children to bring their book and reading record in daily and put it in the box in their classroom. ‘Children need to learn to read before they can read to learn.’
PE For PE children need: Tracksuit for the Winter Black PE shorts House coloured t-shirt Plimsoles Trainers for outside games PE kit needs to be in school every day. We have PE on Mondays and Thursdays.
We are immersing the children in a fully topic based curriculum. • The Maths curriculum will focus on broadening their mathematical understanding through problem solving, explanation and reasoning. • The English curriculum will still cover a variety of text types involving fiction, non-fiction and poetry, as well as extended writing. Curriculum
Topics over the year include: * Term 1 and 2 – Victorians (we will have a themed day in Term 2) - Use of Everyday Materials * Term 3 and 4 – India - All living things and their Habitats - Plants * Term 5 and 6 – Castles - Animals Including Humans This term we will also be having our Harvest Festival in the hall on Thursday 11thOctober 2018. At Christmas there will be a performance at Tonbridge Baptist Church. Curriculum
Trips In Term 1 and 2 we will be having a themed Victorian Day with the children (Term 2) Term 3 we will be having an themed day in honour of Indian culture. In Terms 5 and 6 we will be visiting Leeds Castle.
As it currently stands, SATs are statutory and will take place this year under the government guidance. • They will form part of our teacher assessment. SATs
This is the expected standard for Year 2 writing. We will be sharing more examples of work at Parents’ Evenings.
We teach across the year group for phonics and some other lessons where appropriate. • We will use this to help us decide the classes for Year 3. This also depends upon a number of other factors including friendships, a spread of boys and girls, special educational needs and pupil premium children. Year 2
Expectations In Year 2 the expectation will be high. We promote independence and children having the opportunities to become more responsible. Children are encouraged to take ownership of their learning and be motivated to achieve their full potential and then challenged to exceed it.
Rewards and Sanctions • Marble jar as a whole class reward system e.g. for lining up quietly, trying their best. This is linked in with the class rules. When full, the children will decide the class reward. • Whole school incentive of house points with a house reward at the end of each term. • Behaviour charts/’sad face’ are used if children make the wrong choice. After a warning, the child’s name is added to the sad face and a timeout is given.
