Defeating monsters and telling the time…

We’ve had another busy and exciting week in 2C!

In English, the children have completed their “Defeating a Monster” hot write. This is always a fun and thrilling genre, and the class really threw themselves into it with energy and imagination. From bold heroes to terrifying beasts, the children have shown just how far they’ve come as writers since September. It’s a real privilege to witness their growth and creativity shining through their writing!

In Maths, we’ve reached the end of our unit on Time. This can be a tricky topic for Year 2, but the children have shown great perseverance. You can help support this learning at home by practising reading an analogue clock together – whether on the wall, your wrist, or even a toy clock.

In PSHE, we covered an important and sensitive topic: understanding our bodies and the concept of privacy. We used the NSPCC’s “Talk PANTS with Pantosaurus” song to introduce the idea that certain body parts are private and belong only to us. The children responded maturely, and it opened up some thoughtful conversations.

It’s natural for children to have follow-up questions about this topic. If your child brings something up at home and you’re unsure how to answer, please don’t hesitate to speak to us. We’re here to help you navigate these important discussions.
