Class 2

Welcome to our Class 2 page. Our class teacher is Mrs. McKee and working with her are Mrs. Lupton and Mr Goulson.  Here you will find all the information you need, in order to help your make child progress, by supporting the learning that goes on in class and also giving you a window into what they are doing through the year.

 

English

We are often asked whether there are any books which we can recommend for pupils. The website: https://schoolreadinglist.co.uk shows lots of good choices for individual year groups. We are using the 'Pathways' teaching approach from The Literacy Company, which provides a scaffold for children to base their own writing. It also ensures that they are exposed to a range of quality texts as they make they way through school.
