This Term we are learning about "Africa". We will be looking at life in the continent through exploring schools, city and village life. As well as drawing comparisons with their own experiences. They will learn about the range of animals and climate. They will also learn about the significant life of Nelson Mandela.
We are looking at stories from different cultures including 'Handa's Hen' and 'Handa's Surprise' by Eileen Browne. We will also be exploring instructions and exclamations through 'Don't let the Pigeon Drive the Bus' by Mo Willems. Our class texts are: 'Meercat mail', 'Where the Wild things are', 'Amazing Grace', 'Lost and Found' and 'Tiger Walk'.

We follow Read, Write, Inc to teach Phonics. The sounds make a huge difference in supporting your child to read.
There is more information about the expectations for Phonics and Year 2 reading, writing and maths in the KS1 Phonics and SATS information powerpoint below.
