Year 2 Knowledge Organisers 

Our knowledge organisers give a detailed summary of what your child is learning in history, geography and science. They are a very useful tool to help you ask your child about what they have learnt in school.

Below is the link for our knowledge organisers for our history topic 'How different were the lives of Florence Nightingale and Mary Seacole?' and our science topic 'Everyday Materials'.

Year 2 Reading Spine

We have carefully selected the books which we will read with Year 2 over the course of the year. The books link with our history, geography and science topics, exposing children to fantastic writing and representing the many cultures in our community.

Homework

Reading

In Year 2 we are passionate about reading and expect children to read at home every night, this helps the children become more fluent and helps to build their confidence. We expect the children to read every night, please record in their reading diary.

Spellings 

You can support your child by helping them to practise their spellings at home. You can find the weekly spellings in your child's homework book. The spellings will be sent out every Friday and there will be a quiz on these words the following Friday.
