Year Two is made up of Squids Class and Turtles Class. In Squids Class is Mrs Carter, Mrs O’Brien, Mrs Knight and Mrs Austin-Whittle. In Turtles Class is Mrs Lowe and Mrs Steel, and we are very lucky to get to share Mrs Hill across the Year 2 classes for the Autumn Term. Our PE days are Mondays and Thursdays.

Phonics

Our whole school phonics scheme is: Twinkl Phonics

We are currently learning our level 6 spelling rules. Alongside learning the new spelling rules we also recap our level 3, 4 and 5 sounds, and the tricky words. Children need to be confident in recognising all level 3,4 and 5 sounds, level 6 spellings rules and the tricky words to support their reading as well as use these within their writing.

Here are some helpful phonic resources;

• Level 2 and 3 Sound Mat
• Level 2 Tricky Words
• Level 2 Handwriting
• Level 3 Tricky Words
• Level 3 handwriting
• Level 4 Tricky Words
• Level 5 Sounds Mat
• Level 5 Common Exception Words
• Level 6 Sound Mat
• Level 6 Common Exception Words
