Wonder, Believe, Shine & Achieve - Welcome to Year 2!
Spring Term
During the Spring Term, Year 2 will embark on an exciting cross-curricular project focused on aviation. Working as a specialist team, the children will explore the history of flight and learn about inspiring female pioneers in aviation. This learning will culminate in a creative exhibition showcasing memorabilia, letters, drawings, designs, model planes, and maps.
In Mathematics, pupils will develop their understanding of multiplication and division, as well as statistics, measurement, and geometry, with a focus on the properties of shape.
Using the Source to Summit: Lighting the Path programme in RE, Year 2 will explore Jesus’ ministry and miracles, leading to His final purpose in Jerusalem and reflecting on commitment to God’s plan.
In Art, the children will study the work of Georgia O’Keeffe, creating their own artwork inspired by this influential female artist. Links to flowers and landscapes will connect beautifully with our Science topics on plants and habitats.
Homework
Homework continues to support learning at home. Children are expected to read for 10–15 minutes each evening and record this in their reading record. Weekly literacy and numeracy homework, along with spellings, will be given out on Fridays and should be returned by Wednesday morning.
