Please remember to have in school your field shoes, a coat, reading and contact books, water bottle and snack everyday. On Fridays you must also have your swimming kit. 

 

We love reading in Chestnut Class. Please try to read as often as possible at home so that you can get new books regularly from the classroom to enjoy. Children change their own reading books in class.

 

We will have lots of adventures in our Year 2 learning journey and you will be able to read about them here.

 

PLEASE COULD YOU ENSURE YOUR CHILD HAs:

  • a change of shoes for the field 
  • a coat or waterproof (we usually try to play outside, even if it is raining)
  • a fresh water bottle, a packed lunch and a healthy snack each day
  • all belongings and uniform named
  • small pencil case
  • reading book and reading record (every day please) 
  • Swimming kits on Fridays.
  • Forest School will be in the Summer Term

 Spellings:

 

Year 2 Spellings started after Christmas. Your child will bring home their spelling book on a Monday with a list of words using a common spelling pattern. Please can these books be returned to school each Friday when an informal, in-class spelling test on these words will take place. 

For further ideas on how to practise spellings at home, please speak with Miss Newins.
