Loveny Class - Year 2

Miss Gaskin with Mrs Bell, Miss Mallett and Mrs Luther

Welcome to Loveny Class!

In Loveny class, we like to have lots of fun and be creative thinkers! We love to become historians and piece together clues to help us discover more about the past, including The Great Fire of London! We even use all this learning to write a diary entry in the perspective of Samuel Pepys in our English lessons!

We also value the importance of learning outdoors during our 'Out and About' unit of work. We explore Dobwalls and learn how to draw a map of the local area. We even write an instruction text on how to draw a map of Dobwalls, so you never need to worry about getting lost around the village again! During our learning on 'Out and About' we learn all about the artist Andy Goldsworthy and you will have the opportunity to create a piece of art using nature inspired from this artist!

Finally, we love maths and enjoy challenging ourselves with reasoning and problem-solving questions to deepen our understanding of a range of mathematical topics!

Parent Curriculum Information

Each half-term we share an overview of our curriculum with our parents/carers. A copy of these can be found at the bottom of this page. A paper copy is sent home each half-term. We hope our parents/carers find this useful information to know what their child is learning and to support them in having conversations with their children.

Homework

Each half-term, we create and send home a homework menu. This has a range of learning activities linked to our current topic and reading. We send a paper copy home to parents each half-term.

Knowledge Organisers

These provide the key knowledge we will be learning in our foundation topics this half-term. It would be useful to look at these with you child and talk about them. You could have mini quizzes to see what they can remember, draw parts of them, or they can create their own version. This will help the children to ensure they remember the knowledge fully.

If you would like another copy of any of these documents, please don't hesitate to contact us.
