Skylarks Year 2 2023 - 2024

Autumn 1 Learning 

Welcome to Skylarks' class page.

I hope you have had a lovely summer holiday and are as excited as I am to get started in Skylarks. 

As we begin our learning journey we have some really interesting topics to look forward to throughout Autumn 1. 

Within team Skylarks we have: 

• Miss Hughes teaching. 
• Mrs Burrows teaching on a Thursday afternoon and assisting on a Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday afternoon. 
• Mrs Austin teaching on a Tuesday afternoon.
• Mrs Harvey assisting on a Thursday afternoon.

Every week Skylarks will be given homework on a Friday due for the following Wednesday. Please check the weekly message for confirmation of the weeks homework and reading challenge (which can earn dojos). Please ensure that you continue to read regularly with your child and record all reading in reading diaries. 

Phonics/Spelling lessons will be taught everyday as we begin to learn spelling rules as well as review phase 5 phonics in Autumn 1. Please see year two tricky words below. 

P.E will be taught twice a week on Tuesday mornings  and Wednesday afternoons.

Please ensure that P.E kits are brought in on a Monday ready for the week. During the Autumn term, it is advisable that children bring trainers, a plain white tshirt and shorts. For colder weather it's recommended the children have a plain navy jacket and tracksuit bottoms. Please make sure that all P.E. clothing is labelled clearly, so lost items can be returned to their rightful owner.

Here's to a great term in Skylarks!
