Final Year 2 Sharing Assembly

Hello Year Two,

Welcome to the final sharing assembly of the year. We just want to to say thank you very much to everyone who has taken the time to send in a photo over the past 14 weeks. We wouldn’t have been able to have this special sharing time each week without you.

Well done to everyone who has worked hard at home during these very different and sometimes challenging times. We appreciate that it is not always easy to do school work at home but we want to say well done to everyone who has tried their best and worked hard.

This week we are going to start with looking at some pictures of what some of the children that have been in school in the Year 2 bubble have been getting up to.

End of term Goodbye 2S

Dear 2S,

It’s the last week of term and usually that would be filled with celebration and reminiscing as we remember our year together. The great things we have done and memories that we have shared.

Even though we have had to miss out on a term together, we certainly crammed a lot into the 2 terms we did have! As we look back through the photographs of just some of the wonderful things we have done we are smiling and thinking about all the learning, growing and laughing that we enjoyed this year!

There are so many things to think about and remember but we have tried to write a few below to remind you.

Autumn Term – Horniman Museum visit, making and showing our toys at our own toy exhibition, performing in the christmas play, experiments in science (including the challenge of making a backwards marble run… impossible!!) The beautiful teddy bear sketches (that we just had to leave up all year to admire for longer).

Spring Term – Albany theatre visit, baking bread (mmmm the delicious smell it left in the classroom), a visit from the fire brigade, rainbow theatres performance and then our class assembly.

What we will remember the most though is the amount of reading and singing we enjoyed together – you need only sing 1 line of a song and everyone is joining in and smiling.

We hope you enjoy looking at the pictures and remembering your time in Year 2. Comment with what you have enjoyed this year and your memories from Year 2.

It has been an unusual end to the year and we have missed you all. We wish you all a lovely and relaxing summer and are looking forward to seeing how much you have grown in September.

Love from,

Miss Spicer, Miss Partington and Marvin 🐶

Year 2 Reading Comprehension 13.7.20

Hello,

We would like to take this opportunity to say well done to everyone for continuing to read at home over the past couple of months. Whether you have been reading school books, books at home, books from the library or books on bug club. Reading is so important, it helps you learn about the world, about people, places and it helps to improve your language and vocabulary. So please don’t forget to do some reading, even in the summer holidays.

This week the comprehension is all about the seaside. Don’t forget there are three different versions with the answers. We would recommend that you just choose one.

Miss Townsend, Miss Spicer and Miss Butler 🙂

Year 2 Reading Comprehension 6.7.20

Hello Year Two,

Sadly, as I sure you are aware, we were not able to have sports day this year at the sports ground. I certainly missed going to the Ladywell arena and watching you all take part in lots of different activities. Hopefully, during your time at home, you have all had the opportunity to get out and about on your bikes, scooters, roller skates, skateboards or maybe you were just walking. If you did something special during the last couple of months, like learning to ride your bike, then well done to you.

The comprehension this week is all about Sports Day. Choose one of the reading sheets below to complete.

Good luck,

Miss Townsend, Miss Butler and Miss Spicer 🙂
