Year 2

Autumn term 2025

Welcome back! First things first I hope you have had the best summer and made lots of wonderful memories! It's now time to get the Autumn term started and crack on with some exciting learning.

This term's topic is 'Blue Planet' in which we will take on the role of explorers as we find out all about our wonderful planet. Have you ever wondered how many oceans there are? Do you know why earth is referred to as the blue planet sometimes? There is so much to find out about the wonderous planet we live on....so let's get exploring!!

We will be learning so much more in all subjects. Check out the Year 2 curriculum map to see what's coming up this term and across the year!

Parents....once the children have been assessed and reading books are issued please make sure they are reading daily. Also try to enjoy a story together each day....the power of reading together can never be underestimated!

PE will be on Monday's and Wednesday's, please make sure children are in the correct kit and earrings are removed!

Please feel free to chat to myself at a convenient time if there are any issues. Tuesday's after school are always a good time as I am meeting free on this day! No problem is too small so if something is on your mind please come and chat. I am very approachable...I promise! 

So.....let's get going. I can't wait to have the best year with my new little Year 2 family!

Our art unit has been all about shading! What do you think of our Superhero artwork?

We have written superhero stories based on Supertato and superhero poems!

Love is in the air in Year 2! 

This term we are learning all about money!! How many ways can you make 50p? Let me know!

 We need to know how to partition numbers into tens and ones and then in other ways! Then we ordered and compared numbers. Finally we were counting forwards and backwards in 2s 5s and 10s. We are now moving on to addition and subtraction.

In English we have been learning our new Talk 4 Writing story 'Meerkat Mail'.

In Year 2 we are 'Intrepid Explorers!!' so we need to name and locate the 7 continents.

In art we are looking at a very famous painting called 'The Great Wave'. We have recreated it so far using coloured pencils and watercolours.

IN PSHE we are thinking about 'Rights and Responsibilities'. We decided on some class rules and thought about how we are ALL responsible for making Year 2 a safe, happy place.
