Read, Write Inc – Pure Sounds

Dear Parent/Carer,

The video link below explains how to pronounce each single letter sound correctly. These are called ‘pure sounds’ and are important in allowing your child to blend sounds into words.

‘How to say the sounds’: https://schools.ruthmiskin.com/training/view/iZqY6LWC/9PMBDFTQ

The most common sounds that children mispronounce are ‘t’, ‘c’, ‘l’, ‘m’, ‘n’, ‘s’, ‘k’, ‘f’, ‘r’, ‘v’ and ‘z’. Children mistakenly put an ‘uh’ sound on the end, making it a longer sound and thereby trickier to blend when reading a word. Please have a look at how to say these sounds in particular.

We hope that you find this helpful,

Year 2 Miss Lowe’s class – Poland

Flag of Poland - Wikipedia We loved learning about Poland during European Languages Day!

Lianna shared her Polish book and helped us practise some Polish words and phrases:“Cześć” (Hi/Bye)

“Jak się nazywasz?” (What is your name?)

“Nazywam się… “ (My name is…)

We then designed our own Polish pottery. We loved the circular patterns and bright colours.

Miss Lowe’s Year 2 Class BeSMART cup treat!

Tomorrow the children have decided for their BeSMART cup treat that they would like to bring in slippers to wear inside the classroom, one teddy and enjoy a mini film at the end of the day.

Thank you :) Miss Lowe

Changes to timetable next week.

Dear Parents/Carers,

We have had to move our timetable around because of our sports coaches’ availability. Therefore, PE days are now Wednesday (outdoor) and Friday (indoor).

Forest school has also had to move to Tuesday afternoon.

We apologise for any disruption this may cause.

Thanks,
Year 2 team.

Year 2 outdoor learning – Wednesday

Just a reminder that it is outdoor learning for year 2 tomorrow (Wednesday 13th)

We will be going out even if it is raining a little bit.
It is already muddy in our outdoor learning area, so children will need a change of footwear and waterproof clothing.

Thanks,

Year 2 team

Mrs Trevor’s BeSMART cup treat on Friday 21st August!

I was extremely proud of my class last week for their fantastic history work on significant nurses and the way the whole class followed the BeSMART code.

As a treat the children are able to bring a toy or game (no electrical devices) to school on Friday 21st August.

They will be able to play with them during the afternoon.

Thank you

Mrs Trevor :)

Year 2 DT – cooking and nutrition unit

Hope everyone has had a lovely weekend.

In year 2 we will be making an exotic fruit salad in our DT unit.

We would like the children to bring in a small plastic box with a lid so they can bring it home.

Please ensure they bring it to school by Friday 14th July.

If any children have any specific fruit allergies that we are unaware of please email us or write in the reading diary.

Thank you

Year 2 Team :)
