Year 2B 2025 - 2026

Welcome to 2B

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

Welcome back to the Summer term! We have many exciting events planned for the children so keep your eyes peeled. 

In Maths, we will begin by looking at fractions, moving on then to time. Would you rather have half a pizza or 3/4? We will also be continuing 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 'Into the Forest' by Anthony Browne. The children will be making predictions, exploring unfamiliar words, ordering the events of the story and answering comprehension questions. Towards the end of this unit the children will be writing their own version of the story by changing the character that the boy meets in the forest.

In Geography, our topic is 'What are the Seven Wonders of the World?' Throughout this topic, we will consider what a 'wonder' is and what makes a 'wonder'. The children will then create a brochure to try and persuade people to come and visit one of the various ancient and modern wonders. 

Our Science topic is 'Plants'. We will look at the life cycle of a plant and how they disperse their seeds. Later in the unit, we will observe the similarities and differences between seeds and bulbs by dissecting them and understanding the name and role of each part. We have also planted some seeds of different vegetables! We can't wait to see how they grow!

In RE, we will be focussing on the topic ‘Who is Muslim and how do they live?’ Our learning will be focused around many ‘Big Questions’ and we will be learning about Islam and key Muslim beliefs including the importance of prayer.

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!

Thank you for your continued support, Mrs Bradley and The Year Two Team :)
