Year 2

English

We will start by reading and studying 'The Twits' before reading 'George's Marvellous Medicine' and comparing the two books. This term, we will begin to read longer and more challenging texts to get us ready to start Key Stage Two. We will be writing our own persuasive texts to encourage people to visit Meriden, and we will be writing instructions for making our own medicine. We will also be continuing our work on writing interesting narratives.

Maths

In Maths we will be learning about capacity and temperature before learning about fractions. Our work on fractions will involve learning about halves, quarters, thirds and recognising the equivalence of some simple fractions.

Science

In Science this half term, we will be learning about materials and their properties, before consolidating our work on animals and their habitats. During Sports week, we will be conducting experiments to help us learn more about keeping our bodies healthy.
