Year 2

Supporting Your Child in Year 2 new 2015

Thank you to all the year 2 parent’s for their comments during the latest parent’s evening.  After some observations we  have put together this as a resource for you to support your child with their writing and reading.

As you may be aware during the next half term the children in year 2 will be doing the government SAT testing.  Please can we reassure parents that these tests are handled in such a way that the children are not put under any pressure.  The children already do weekly assessments and we use the SATs only to support our professional judgements.

If you feel that you need to discuss this further then please come and see a member of the year 2 team.

I hope you find this useful.

Well done to all of 2R, we  successfully managed to cram into one lesson cooking, ICT, team work skills, literacy and numeracy!

The class had great fun making their Easter nests and even more fun eating them!

The children recorded their methods by using the Learn Pads.

Year 2 dressed up as Robin Hood and his merry men, also some came as Maid Marrion. The children have enjoyed learning lots of things about Robin Hood. All the children (and parents too!) made a real effort with their costumes. A big thank you to you all!

Year two have been very busy in their return to school! On Wednesday the children scambled through Boggy Woods in search for Robin Hood. The children took all the photos themselves and this then was used to inspire their writing later on in the week. The children have learnt some key facts about the character and completed some amazing art work, this can be seen in the lower building corridor. Well done children!

We hope your children all had a fab time at Edgmond Hall and made memories that will stay with them for a long time.

The staff thoroughly enjoyed spending time with your children (maybe excluded the first restless night!) and were all impressed with how independent children were.

We thought it would be lovely if children left a comment on this post, thanking The Edgmond staff, writing about their favourite part of the experience. This will then be shared with the centre.

Once all the washing and bathing is complete, we hope you all have a great Christmas! See you all in the new year.
