Welcome to Class Two

Class Two is a mixture of Year 2, 3 and 4 children 

We like to explore subjects through our topic work, where possible. This means we have a rich curriculum that makes links across the subjects when appropriate.  We have a two year rolling programme which ensures all children cover all aspects of the NC over their two years in the class.

Autumn 2019

Topic - Our local area.

History/Geography - we will be delving into the history of the Furness and Cartmel peninsulas, finding out how they have changed over time among other human and physical geographical studies. We'll also be looking at the great fire of London and its historical impact on society.

RE - how do Muslims express their faith?

Science - electricity and forces and magnets.

PE - this term we will have coaching from Graeme from the Westmorland FA on a Monday afternoon and dance with Jane on a Tuesday afternoon.

Music - we will continue to follow the Music Express music programme

Computing - online safety and data handling.

DT - sturdy structures.

Reading: children are heard reading twice a week - either 1:1 with their own book or as part of a guided reading session.  They also experience weekly reading comprehension activities.

Handwriting: we follow a handwriting programme called Letter-Join.  This is an online interactive resource which aids the practice of cursive handwriting and uses interactive animations to demonstrate joined up letter formation.

Times tables: we love using Times Tables Rockstars in Class 2! It's a fun, interactive way of learning times tables using an online game - use your school login to have a go!
