Welcome

Welcome to the Year 2 Class page. Your teachers this year will be Mrs Shehi. In year 2, we will be preparing you for moving into the juniors with all the skills you need. You will broaden your knowledge of phonics so that you become confident readers and writers. Your mathematical skills will be developed through the support of concrete apparatus and taking part in problem-solving challenges. Tasks might involve working co-operatively in groups or growing as confident, independent learners. There will be lots of practical and fun learning activities threaded through our six exciting topics to make your learning memorable.
