  1. HOLY ROSARY CATHOLIC PRIMARY SCHOOL Welcome to Year Two

  2. Year Two Staff • Miss Grady– Infant 5 class teacher • Mrs Moorcroft- Infant 6 class teacher • Mrs Caddick – Year 2 teaching assistant • Mrs West – Year 2 teaching assistant • Mrs Kelly– One to one support

  3. General Class Information • Attendance: The classroom doors close at 9:00am prompt. Anybody arriving after this time must go through the office and will be marked late. • Playtime: 10:30 – 10:45 and 2:15 – 2:30 • Lunchtime: 12:30; children have until 1:15 to eat their lunch. We promote a Healthy Schools Policy, children are encouraged to bring just one snack. • Snack: Children have fruit provided for them at morning playtime. • Water: Children may bring in a water bottle each day or can use the water fountains in school. • Open door Policy: Communication between teachers and parents is important, please if you have anything you wish to talk about with your child's class teacher please wait to see them at the end of the day or make an appointment at the school office. • Marking; Due to the age of the children detailed marking in Year 2 is not always appropriate. Therefore motivational comments and verbal feedback are more frequently used. Detailed marking is used only when a teacher has worked with that particular group when the marking can be meaningful. • Keeping you informed: Each infant class will display any current information in the classroom windows for your reference.

  4. A Typical Day in Year Two Your child will experience the following activities in a typical day in year one. • Reading with an adult • Whole class carpet time • Group work • Outdoor activities • Phonics – Letters and Sounds • Practical activities

  5. Curriculum • We follow a topic based approach to learning in Year 2. • Trips and visitors: We aim to enhance all topics with a range of experiences. • Keeping you informed: At the start of each topic we will send home a letter outlining the aims and objectives.

  6. Reading • Reading in School: Children will read with an adult at least twice a week in year 2. We also read a variety of texts and stories within Literacy, Topic and Letters and Sounds lessons. • Communication with parents: The individual reading record will be stamped to indicate when a child has read at school. Specific adult comments will also be added when required. • Home reading: In order for children to become fluent readers they must be given ample opportunity to practise the skills that they learn in school. We would ask that your read as often as possible with your child. Please ensure that this is quality time to share a book together. They will have the opportunity to change their book a number of times during the week. • Levels: Please remember that children learn to read at different rates and that reading is not a competition. Understanding the text and developing comprehension skills is equally as important as decoding words. Therefore children will not be rushed through levels.

  7. Spelling • Children will have weekly spellings. • Children will be assessed in school to find out the phonics phase they are currently working in. Their spellings will correspond to this. • Children will be tested on a Friday and new spellings will be given on the same day. • Children will be given a spelling book where their weekly spellings will be stuck and they are encouraged to use one page to practice each week. • A good way to practice spellings is to; Look, Say, Cover, Write and Check. • Their spelling test will be done in school and marked the same day. Their marks are recorded in class and their tests are sent home for you to see. • Children must bring their spelling book into school every Friday.

  8. PE • Children will have PE twice a week. One will be an indoor PE Lesson on either Dance or Gymnastics. The other will be an outdoor Games or Athletics Lesson. • Children should have their PE kit in school at all times. They may bring it home every half term to get washed. • PE Kit: White T-shirt, Blue or Black Shorts/ PE Skirt, Black Pumps • Winter: Children may bring track suit bottoms and a warm sweatshirt (navy or black).

  9. Homework • Reading books: Every day • Spellings: Once a week with a weekly test • Maths and Literacy worksheet/ activity: Weekly • Research for current topic: As a when required • Maths Library: Children will have the opportunity to take home a Maths game to play at home with their family.
