Croeso i Ddosbarth Coch
General information for Dosbarth Coch
PE days are a Thursday - PE kit to be kept in school (plain white t shirt or polo shirt, black jogging bottoms or shorts, trainers).
Please return home reading books to Dosbarth Coch once your child has read the book and a parent has signed the yellow reading record. The children can return their book daily if they have read it.
We are a healthy school, so we ask for daily bottles with water and a healthy snack. Please could these be labelled with your child’s name. PLEASE cut grapes into quarters and no nuts for snack.
Please could all belongings be labelled including jumpers and cardigans.
All Y2 children have lockers to store their belongings in.
We look forward to working with you this year.

Learning in Year 2
Literacy- Throughout the year we do Read Write Inc phonics, handwriting and topic writing tasks for a range of contexts. As pupils finish Read Write Inc phonics they will move onto a writing journey and begin to complete guided reading sessions.
Maths- In Year 2 we follow the White Rose Maths scheme of work. We still carry out lots of our learning practically to embed concepts. Throughout the year we will learn about place value within 10, 20 and 100, addition and subtraction within 10 and 20, 2d and 3d shape, multiplication and division- counting in 2s, 5s and 10s, position and direction, measures: length and height, weight and volume, time and data handling. We will apply the skills we learn across our topic work. Pupils can access Sumdog maths and Times Table Rockstars at home as well as in school.
Topic- Throughout the year we will do 3 different topics within the Science & Technology, Expressive Arts and Humanities areas of learning. In addition, we will do 3 wellbeing topics - What is happiness?, You Are What You Eat and Making Choices to learn about keeping our mind and bodies healthy.
A parent topic overview will be emailed out to you before each topic to inform you of what the pupils will be learning about.
