Key Information
PE
PE will take place on a Monday and a Thursday. In line with school policy, children are required to bring their PE kit to school and will change before their lesson. Mr Menage (PE coach) will teach the children on a Monday and I will teach them on a Thursday. We would like PE kits to stay in school and they will be sent home at each holiday. If you would like your child’s PE to come home more frequently please remind them to collect it themselves.
Children cannot wear earrings during PE. If your child cannot remove earrings themselves, please ensure that they do not wear them to school on Mondays and Thursdays. As with all school uniform, please label all of your child’s PE kit; it is very difficult to ensure your child will retain all of their clothing if it is not named.
Reading
The Read Write Inc. scheme continues in year 2 with the aim that children complete the scheme over the course of the year. If your child has completed the scheme, they will move on to the KS1 reading books. Reading with your child is the main way you can support their development. Therefore, we ask you to read at least three times a week, preferably five times and record this in their reading records.
Home Learning
Home learning will be set on a Friday to be returned by the following Wednesday. An English activity or a maths activity will be set alternately. Each week, there will be spelling games on Spelling Shed linked to words children are learning in spelling lessons or linked to sounds covered in phonics lessons.
