Year 2
Yellow Class
Teacher: Mrs Cooper
Knowledge Organisers
Each term, we produce a knowledge organiser to explain the key areas of the topic we will be focusing on. A knowledge organiser is a document that contains key facts and information that children need to have a basic knowledge and understanding of a topic.
Most knowledge organisers will include:
- the essential facts about the topic, usually laid out in easily digestible chunks
- key vocabulary or technical terms and their meaning
This term, our question is geography-based: 'Does everyone in the world have the same lifestyle?' Through our Key Text 'Lila and the Secret of the Rain' by David Conway and Jude Daly we will be creating and telling our own story. In our geography sessions we will investigate how life is the same and different to children in Kenya. In Science, we will start to investigate materials and their properties as well as exploring how and why some materials change. For our RE sessions, we will be looking at 'Who is a Muslim and how do they live?'
Year 2 PE takes place on THURSDAY afternoons.
Homework
Please remember to hear your child read daily – it makes such a difference to your child’s reading.
The children also have a log in for Mathletics. They should access this regularly to help increase their fluency and help to reinforce what has been learned in class.
