Year 2B 2025 - 2026

Welcome to 2B

Please keep an eye on this page for updates throughout the year.  

Welcome back to the Spring term! 

In Maths, we will begin by focussing on the properties of numbers and then move onto fractions of amounts. Would you rather have half a cake or a quarter? We will also continue with our weekly 'MAD MINUTES' sessions, where the children are timed whilst completing their times tables. Ready, steady, get practising! 

In English, we are focussing on the book 'The Dragon Machine’ by Helen Ward, which is part of our ‘Fantasy texts’ unit. The children will be making predictions, exploring unfamiliar words, ordering the events of the story and answering comprehension questions. Towards the end of this half term, we will be looking at instructions. 

In Geography, our topic is 'Where does our food come from? ‘Throughout this topic, we will be exploring how food is made and the process of how our food gets to the shops from farms. We will also be looking at different parts of the world and the foods that originate from each country.  

Our Science topic is 'Animals including Humans'. We will look at the life cycles of different animals and explore the different organs in our bodies. 

In RE, we will be focussing on the topic ‘How should we care for others and the world and why does it matter?’. Our learning explores how people of faith express care for creation and humanity, referencing biblical stories such as Creation in Genesis, the Good Samaritan, and Jewish traditions like tikkun olam (repairing the world). Children learn that caring for the Earth and other people is a shared human and spiritual duty, not limited to one religion or culture.

We are looking forward to another exciting term with Year 2!

Please remember to check our class page on the school website for reminders and any recent work that we are proud of!
