Fireflies - Year 2 Class
Welcome to Fireflies!
Hello and welcome to Fireflies! 
The class teacher of Fireflies is Miss Fowler with Mrs Allen supporting as the class TA.
As children move into Year 2, there is a greater shift towards taught lessons containing fun and engaging activities. There will always be opportunities for learning in a practical, 'hands-on' way, making use of equipment and outdoor areas. During the year, we will be continuing to encourage a more independent approach to learning ready for Key Stage 2.
All topic information for each half term can be found at the bottom of this page. The 'what we have been up to' pages will have regular updates and photos from each term - just click on the star!
A typical day in Year 2...
The day starts with phonics / spelling, followed by Literacy where we complete tasks based off the class text. After break, we have Maths and Guided Reading. After Lunch we fill the afternoons with other subjects including RE, Science, History, Geography, P.E., PSHE, Music, Computing and Art or D.T. We then finish the day with Collective Worship and a story.
