Matisse - Year 2
Welcome to Matisse - Year 2!
IN Matisse class…
We show RESPECT,
We are KIND,
We LISTEN to everybody,
We LOOK AFTER our classroom
We always TRY OUR BEST
And ENJOY LEARNING!
Welcome to the Matisse class page of our school website.
The Year 2 team are Miss Kent and Mrs. Sibley, who support the children with their learning.
What a busy/ strange start to the year we have had! Thank you for your continued support, kind messages and understanding with our remote learning.
Our Concept this Half Term is Responsibility. Have a think about what responsibilities we have. We are going to think about what this means for other people in our life and look at the bigger picture of caring for our environment and world.
In the second Half Term our concept is Future. We will be thinking about what are dreams and wishes are for the future and how we feel about our transition into the juniors. We are going think about what we can do to make a better future for ourselves and our community.
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.
In our Maths lessons we will continue to build on work we have done in the first two terms, developing the children’s speed and accuracy with number facts. We will build on mental calculation strategies from the previous term, and add to their repertoire of methods for solving longer calculations. We will start working with larger numbers, and becoming confident to choose our preferred methods to help solve problems.
In RE this term the children will begin the term by learning about Hinduism We will be learning about the Hindu festival of Raksha Bandhan, which takes place in August, and celebrates love and protection. After half term they will be looking at the Gospel and the good news that Jesus brings.
Remember to check the school twitter and class blog to see what the children are doing.

Stage One Remote Education Support Plan
Autumn 2020 - archived near the end of this page
Stage One is short term Remote Education Support (RES) as most families who are awaiting Covid 19 test results are off for 2 to 3 days.
Below you will find:
- Concept Curriculum for the current half term.
- Maths and English – We will be providing 3 activities i.e. up to 3 days work, that links DIRECTLY to the Maths and English planning the class will be following that week.
- 6 (KS1) Ways at Once. This provides a range of work that fits the current class concept and work that would be covered over the half term in class. This covers most of the Foundation Subjects and will change each half term when the concept changes.
We would expect that if the child is not symptomatic that this work will be completed. If your child is poorly, we would ask you to make the judgement as to what you feel they can or can’t do.
