Ahlberg Class (Year 2)

Welcome to Ahlberg class – our teacher this year is Miss Jackson and our Learning Support Assistant is Mrs Hartigan.

In Ahlberg, we create a positive and enjoyable environment in which the children feel happy to learn and feel confident to challenge themselves.

Learning in Year 2

During year 2, we encourage children to work independently and cooperatively with each other. We support the children’s learning and development of skills through a range of teaching methods including whole class, group work, paired work and individual learning opportunities.

We learn through a variety of methods and where possible, the lessons are cross-curricular and practical.

Our topics over the course of Year 2 include:

Autumn 1 – Capital Cities of the UK

Autumn 2 – The Great Fire of London

Spring – A Journey Down Under

Summer – Changes Over Time

PE

Please ensure children have removed earrings on PE days and they have BOTH indoor and outdoor kits in school every day.

Reading

We change our reading books once a week. Please write “book finished” in the reading record when your child has finished their book. It is essential that children are reading regularly at home to support their fluency, phonic knowledge and comprehension. 

Homework

Homework will be set every Friday on Seesaw and will be discussed in class.

Thank you for your continued support.

Miss Jackson
