Year 2 Important Dates Autumn Term 2024
PE
This term, children in Base 5 and Base 6 have their PE lessons on a
Monday – Gymnastics (indoor)
Thursday – Multi – Skills (outdoor)
Children will need a PE kit consisting of a plain white t-shirt and plain black shorts, leggings or tracksuit bottoms.
Written or verbal explanation from you should be given to the class teacher, prior to the PE session, if your child is not participating. It is also important to note that no jewellery is permitted during physical education sessions. If your child is wearing jewellery they will be responsible for removing and storing their own jewellery. Our advice is that children do not wear any jewellery on their P.E. days.
Homework
Reading logs are in the back of the Home school diary and weekly spellings will be put in Home school diaries on a Monday and handed in on a Friday. Children are expected to bring their home school diaries into school every day so that reading can be logged. Don’t forget to sign your child’s reading record page to show that they have read at home!
For Maths, your child has been provided with their own individual password to an online programme called ‘Numbots. This programme can be accessed on most devices, including tablets and mobile phones. As part of their weekly homework, we ask that you allow your child 15 minutes per week to access this programme and take part in the online games and challenges provided. It is recommended that a “little and often” approach; 3 minutes practice a day, 5 times a week is a good target.
