Important Information
The School Day
Reading
Reading underpins every aspect of learning and, for your child to make progress, it is essential that they read their school reading book every day. Children in Year 2 progress from RWI books to Accelerated Reader books where they can complete quizzes on the book they have read. Please sign their reading record to let us know that they have practised their reading at home and ensure they bring it to school every day (with their reading book) to be checked by an adult. When your child has filled a reading record, they must give it to their teacher who will then confirm that they can come to school in non-uniform. They will also receive a new reading record in a different colour. When all coloured reading records have been completed, children will be given a special reward from Mrs George. If your child loses their reading record, they will have to start that colour again from the beginning.
The Year 2 curriculum can be found here: YEAR TWO CURRICULUM
