Our Class

Welcome to the Year 2 webpage.

We are very happy to have all the children back in school and to be working with you all again this year. Year 2 is a really significant year in the children’s lives in Hawthorn as they embark on their final year in Key Stage 1 and prepare for Key Stage 2. We encourage the children to be confident, independent learners and aim to develop a ‘can-do’ attitude to work and play. 

 
Start of the day - Year 2 classes start at 8.50 am The children will be collected from the MUGA yard. The children are brought to their by their teacher or TA. Children who miss even a few minutes of the school day can miss out on vital aspects of the curriculum.
 
End of the day - Year 2 finishes at 3:30 pm (Mon-Thurs) and 1:30 pm only on Fridays. Please be prompt in collecting your child.
   
Thank you 
Mrs Lawrence 

PE

Our PE days are Wednesdays and Thursdays. As our PE lessons are outdoors on a Thursday, please ensure that you bring trainers into school on this day every week.

 

Seesaw

Seesaw is an online learning tool. Each child has their own Seesaw account and this can be used at home You can also see work which your child has produced in class.

 

Please download the app and encourage your child to use it. Seesaw home learning codes have been sent home with your child but if you require the home learning code again, please ask.

 

PING

Letters and forms are sent out electronically on an app called Ping. Please download and login to see them. Your login details can be given to you again from the office. 

 

Reading Books

 Your child will bring their book bag home every night and these need to be returned to school on a daily basis. Reading books will be changed on Monday and Thursday.  Please encourage your child to read at home and sign their reading record.

 

Spellings and Homework

Every Thursday, your child will be given words to practise which we have been learning in class that week. Please support your child to practise reading and writing these words at home.  

Your child will also bring home a handwriting sheet every Thursday. It is essential that your child practises writing the letters to ensure correct formation. This does not need to be returned back to school.
