Year 2 2018 - 2019

Our topic for this term is ‘Amazing Animals and Marvellous Me ’. We will be learning about the animals of the world including their needs.

 Children will learn about life cycles and animal changes. The children will also investigate how children change as they can older. This topic will lead the children into creating a hyprid animal based on the artist Sarah DeRemer. The children will learn about digital art work. In PSHE sessions children will talk about gender, responsibilities and belonging. 

In English our focus this half term is story writing and report writing. The children will complete their story based on a familiar story. Children will look in detail around story sequence. The children will write stories which contain a beginning, middle and end. The children will move on to learn about report writing. In SPaG children will learn about different sentence types. They will also begin investigating new spelling patterns as well as understanding the terms noun, adjective, verb, adverb, commas, and noun phrase.

In Maths the children will be learning about multiplication and division. Children will go on to learn about fractions, length and measures. 

There is a big emphasis on knowing number facts throughout the year. Children should know all number facts within 20 and be thinking about number facts within 20 e.g. 16 + 2 = 18 or 20 - 7 = 13
