Class Two

Welcome to Class 2

In our mixed-age classroom, children learn and grow together under the care of Mrs Draper and Mrs Hinxman, who work as a team to nurture independence, curiosity, and confidence. Mrs Sharpe and Mrs Elliot, our school teaching assist. Our learning environment incorporates exploration-based provision, giving children the chance to discover, create, and problem‑solve through hands‑on experiences. We believe learning should be active and meaningful, so our day is thoughtfully structured with movement breaks to help children stay refreshed, motivated and focused.ants, also support our class during the week. A big part of our class ethos is taking pride in who we are. We support the children in developing responsibility, encouraging them to take ownership of their actions, make positive choices, and celebrate their growth. Together, we build a community where every child feels valued, supported, and excited to learn.

Our Curriculum

Our morning routine consists of Phonics (Essential Letters and Sounds), English and Maths.

We use fun and interesting books to help make our English lessons exciting and enjoyable. These stories help children build their reading skills, learn new words, and develop a love of books.

In Maths, we follow steps of learning from White Rose. We use practical apparatus to help children strengthen their number skills and understand concepts more deeply. 

Our afternoon includes different lessons such as; Geography, History, Science, Art, DT, PE and many more.

Please see our Long Term Plan for an overview of our learning for this academic year.

 Reading

We provide your child with a new book every Monday. Their book will link closely with your child's learning in Phonics. We encourage you to read daily with your child at home, to help foster a love of reading. We love reading books in class too and celebrate reading for pleasure. Children are rewarded for reading at home with Class Dojos.

PE

Our PE days are on Monday and Thursday. Please ensure your child brings in their PE kit, with their name on, at the start of each term. Thank you.
