Class 2

Nativity 2020

Below is a letter explaining how the nativity is going to work this year. A hard copy of the letter along with your child's laminated lines will also go home tomorrow (Friday 20th November).

I have also attached the lyrics to the songs which will be recorded over the coming weeks. Please practice both your child's lines and songs as much as possible. I am going to start filming the children performing their lines in small groups during some afternoon sessions next week. I am doing this to ensure that the DVD is ready in time for Christmas and so that it takes up as little learning time as possible. 

I hope you share our enthusiasm and excitement for Nativity story- an unprecedented 2020 twist.

*REMINDER*

Please make sure that reading books and reading records are kept together in the plastic wallet that has been provided for you. Please also make sure that everything that comes into school is named- this includes all items of PE kit. 

Thank you in advance. 

Homework 2/10/20

Please complete pages 7 and 13 in your CGP maths book and pages 10, 11 and 12 in your CGP GPS book. This will correlate with what we have been learning in class this week. I have also provided you with some paper to practice your handwriting. Please copy the words that I have written, taking care with the letter formation and size. If you are struggling with this then please continue to practice throughout the week. 

Have a lovely weekend, Miss Tinker :)

Reading books- FYI

Due to Covid restrictions, reading books now have to be put into a quarantine box when they are returned to school. Because of this, we are only able to change reading books on a Monday or a Thursday. The children have all been given at least 3 books to take home with them so they should have enough for the time period. On all other days reading records will be checked for messages and stamped if the child has read but reading books should stay in their bags. 

Welcome to Year 2!

Thursday 3rd September

I hope you all had fun on your first day of the new Autumn term, I certainly had fun meeting you all properly! Some things to note/remember going forward in the term...

• The start times are varied depending on the year group. Year 2 will start at 9 and Finish at 3.30.
• PE is twice a week, on Tuesday and Thursday. Children will be expected to have their PE kits with them on those days, including appropriate footwear and jackets for outside. 
• From next week, home learning will be handed out on Thursdays and is due back on Tuesdays. If your child is struggling to complete any tasks please let me know. Spellings will also be included with their home learning and spelling tests will take place on Friday.
• I have started to hand reading books and reading records out today and will continue tomorrow/Monday. I am giving each child 3 or 4 reading books at a time. Once your child has finished with one of the reading books they should bring it back into school and put it in the box provided in the classroom. Reading records should be signed and in school every day.  Children are expected to read to an adult at home every evening.
• The children should be bringing pencil cases to school- see newsletter for details.

If you have any questions or concerns regarding your child please email the office and they will pass the message on to me.
