Welcome to the Matisse class page of our school website. 

 

 

The Year 2 Class Teacher is Miss Kent. Our LSAs are Mrs. King, Mrs. Nevitt(Monday- Wednesday AM) and Mrs. Sewell (Thursday and Friday AM). We haveenjoyed hearing about your experiences over the summer, seeing how much you have grown and helping you learn.

 

This half term our Key Concept is BELONGING where we will be looking at how and where we belong. We will also be comparing and contrasting this with life in Kenya for our Geography topic. We will have a range of class readers to really make us think about what belonging means to us.

Find out about how our new curriculum links with our key concept in the AutumnOverview further down this page.

 

Throughout the term we will be continuing to develop the children’s reading and writing throughout the curriculum.  Our daily English lessons will, where possible, tie in with our curriculum topics. This half term, we will begin by reading and writing stories and poems from other cultures, with a focus on Kenya. We will look at instructional writing linked to “The Gingerbread Man” and we will write recipes and instructions for Kenyan food as part of our design and technology topic. We are also going to write letters linked to “Goldilocks and the Three Bears”.

 

In our Maths lessons we will continue to focus on basic skills, developing the children’s speed and accuracy with number facts and embedding times table knowledge. We will continue to consolidate and develop methods to choose from when using the following operations +, -, x and ÷, with increasingly bigger numbers. 

 

This half term in RE we are looking at ‘God’, and will be building on what the children learnt in year 1. We will be looking at the story of Jonah from the Bible and recognising a link with the concept of God. We will think about what this story means to Christians. We will also look at how Christians use the story of Jonah to guide their beliefs about God. We will look at how Christians put their beliefs into practice in worship and think, talk and ask questions about whether we can learn anything from the story exploring different ideas.
