P.E. Days:

All children need their PE kit in school on a Monday and Tuesday. Our PE kit is plain t-shirt, black shorts/leggings/jogging bottoms and black pumps.

Homework:

Homework will be set on a Friday and will need to be returned the following Wednesday. All children are expected to read at home as often as they can and rehearse their number facts. Their creative homework task is set at the start of the term and teachers will set a date for this to be returned. Children chose from a variety of tasks linked to their learning that term. 

Reading Books:

The children will choose a library book on a weekly basis. The children visit the library on a Thursday and will need to return the book they have and they can then choose another book                     

• To be able to read quickly and accurately with a great understanding of the words and language used
• To know the school values and show them consistently all around school to everyone
• To attend school as much as possible
• To use and be able to explain the important language in all subjects both when speaking and in our writing

Throughout year 2 the teacher uses assessment to see how much the children have learnt. The formal assessments at the end of year 2 (End of KS1 SATs) no longer have to be completed. Little Heath Staff will continue to use teacher assessments and the test papers will act as a guide to support the teacher judgements.

If children did not pass the phonic screening test in year 1, they will have another opportunity to pass this in June 2024.

Books we will be reading this year are...

• Journey - Aaron Becker
• Hansel and Gretel
• The Owl who was Afraid of the Dark - Jill Tomlinson
• Man on the Moon - Simon Bartram
• Sheep School - Ross Montgomery
• Flat Stanley - Jeff Brown
• Proudest Blue - Ibtihaj Muhammed
