Yr2 Welcome to Terms 5&6
16th April 2024
Term 5/6 in Year 2
Dear Parents/Carers,
We hope you enjoyed your Easter break. Our history enquiry for term 5 is ‘What made London burn?’’ We will be learning about life in 1666 and the events leading up to the Great Fire of London as well as the impact this had.
To enhance our history learning the children will receive an exciting visit from ‘Jethro’ a servant of Samuel Pepys! This will help us find out about the cause of the fire and how it felt to be alive at the time.
In term 6, we will be doing a geography enquiry ‘How is our environment changing?’ We will look at and discuss issues that impact our local and global environments.
Just a reminder that we ask families to read with their children at home as much as possible and our regular reader certificates are given out for those children consistently reading 3 times a week or more.
We will continue to send home a copy of the spellings that we are focusing on each week. These will be in your children’s home school diaries so any further practise of these at home would be much appreciated.
