Year 2 - Anning Class
Welcome to Anning Class
Our Class teacher is Miss Hyatt and our Learning Support Assistant is Mrs Rowden.
This term our learning journey in History is Nurturing Nurses and String Soldiers, Kasese – local area in Geography, Plants and Animals Including Humans in Science, Sculpture and 3D in Art and cooking and nutrition and structures in Design and Technology.
During our class story time we will be reading a range of exciting books that the children will be able to vote for each day. We will also be reading a class novel every half term, which will be shared as a whole class.
Please ensure zippy wallets come into school with the children every day.
- Monday - Spelling Test
- Wednesday - PE Day. Please remember to come to school in your PE Kit including jogging bottoms - a reminder will be sent out with information on indoor PE days. We will have one every half term.
- Wednesday - Spellings set and homework set
In year 2 we don’t have a specific day for show and tell, however if the children receive something they are very proud of or have something that is linked to our learning they are very welcome to bring this into school and we will share as a class.

Things that help us learn
We use MyMaths to support children’s home learning and we will be continuing to use Google Classroom as our online learning platform in Key Stage 1. Reading books are sent home on a weekly basis which are pitched at your child’s current phonic ability and at a level they can decode and comprehend at a 95% accuracy. Weekly spellings are sent home to consolidate the phonetic sounds/Spelling rules the children have been learning that week.
