Homework Expectations

In Year 2, children are expected to read every night at home in order to develop their fluency, comprehension and vocabulary. All children have a homework diary in which you should record which page of their book they are up to. In addition to this, children receive a page of Maths homework per week. This goes home on a Wednesday and must be back in school the following Monday. At the beginning of each half term, children will receive a list of spellings, based on our spelling rule for the week, which they are expected to learn at home. They are tested on these words in class the following Thursday.

P.E. and Forest School

Year 2 will have Multi-skills every Monday and P.E. every Wednesday this half term. Children will need to wear their P.E. kit to school every Monday and Wednesday. Kit includes: school P.E. t-shirt, school jumper/cardigan, tracksuit bottoms or shorts and trainers.

Year 2 will have Forest school sessions on a Wednesday afternoon in Autumn 2, Spring 2 and Summer 2. During these half terms, they should come to school in their Forest School clothes every Wednesday. Forest School clothes include: normal school t-shirt & jumper/cardigan, tracksuit bottoms or leggings and old trainers or wellies.
