Year 2 Class Blog: 

Week ending: 17th October 2025

This week has been all about our writing and class text - Aladdin and the magic lamp.  We have really enjoyed reading this magical story and learning how Aladdin outwitted the sorcerer and became a prince.  This week we have been planning our writing and thinking about how we can describe the clever plan Aladdin came up with to rescue the princess.  It has been amazing to see how the class have grasped the learning over this half term to compose simple and compound sentences and questions and use punctuation correctly in the writing.

We have had a lot of fun thinking about questions we might ask the genie - if we had one!!

Another busy week in Year 2 but I really want to shout about our time in Wild Space this week! After a week of working hard in the classroom it was great to get outside in the fresh air and enjoy some time in this really special area.  We all had a great time, building, making things and playing in the mud kitchen.  Some children spent time collecting litter from the bushes and tidying up the space ready for the school to enjoy next week.

Remember to bring wellies or a change of shoes next Friday!

What a busy week we have had in year 2 this week!  Amongst the regular lessons we have, we have also taken part in RESTART A HEART - which gave us the opportunity to have a go at CPR and learn about how a defibrillator can save lives.

We have also taken part in the Harvest Festival - thank you so much to everyone who made a food donation or came to join us at the Church - what a great afternoon.

PLEASE remember that our Wild space session is on Friday afternoon and now that the autumn is with us we will need a waterproof coat and wellies for this session.

Have a great weekend.

We have been working hard this week learning about 2-digit numbers.  Reading and writing them in numerals and words and saying the value of each digit too.  We can build them using resources and represent them by drawing them.

We have also continued our learning in science about the human body.  This week we have been exploring the circulatory system and learning about the job of our veins and arteries. We learnt how the circulatory system works with the digestive system to keep our bodies healthy.

Year 2 are settling in well so far this term and getting into some great work.

As a reminder, our PE days are Tuesday and Friday and we also have our wild space session on a Friday too!  Please ensure that earrings are taken out or covered up for these days and long hair has been tied back.

We have begun reading our class text, 'Aladdin and the magic lamp' which has been lots of fun, particularly meeting the genie!

In Geography we had the compass' on the playground and worked which way was North. We had fun drawing our own compass on the playground with chalk.
