Curriculum Planner 2025-2026
This term we will spend time settling the children into Dickens class with their new classmates, whilst learning all about homes in the past. Films showing “Magic Grandad” transporting us back in time will allow children to learn about how Victorian homes and daily life was different, and sometimes similar, to how we live today.
The children will undertake some writing based on the story “Mrs Mole” whilst thinking about the different homes the characters live in. We will also use an old favourite “A squash and a squeeze” to generate ideas and stimulus for writing.
P.E. will take place on a Monday and a Thursday and children should come in dressed in their P.E. kit.
Please make sure your child is dressed appropriately when they come to school, with a coat when necessary, and ensure they bring in their reading folders and have a water bottle in school every day. When children read at home, they receive a raffle ticket in school, which puts them in the draw for winning a raffle prize on a Friday.
Year 2 children will be learning their 2x and 10x tables, so lots of practice at home would also be excellent! Mathletics and Topmarks (website) are excellent resources for practicing Maths skills, both for Year 1 and Year 2.
