St Joseph the Worker

Catholic Primary School

Year 2

A warm welcome back to school! We hope you all had a peaceful Easter!

 

 

During Summer 1, we will immerse ourselves in learning about the Great Fire of London! We have begun the begun the summer term, immersing ourselves in the history of the Great Fire of London, with an educational day on Monday 15th April! The children had a wonderful day and enjoyed the various activities that took place.

We will continue over this half term to explore the events of the Great Fire and use this knowledge to complete some writing around it.

We will also read a range of texts about the Great Fire!

 

Please refer to Medium Term Plan for a more detailed look at what we will be learning in Class 2.

 

The children will continue to have PE on Tuesday and Friday, please ensure that the children arrive in school, wearing their full PE kit. 

 

As the weather gets warmers, please also provide the children with a bottle of water. 

 

Many thanks.

Below are some really useful, interactive games that the children can access at home with your support.
