Welcome to Class 2
We have 20 children from Year 2 and Year 3 in Class 2, and they are taught by Miss Mitchell and Mrs Myles. You can see what they are studying this term (Summer 2026) from here.

Class 2
In Class 2, we have done some fantastic work using dictionaries to explore the meanings of new vocabulary. The children’s dictionary skills are continuing to develop really well.
We have also worked in groups to research information about cheetahs, using both websites and books to gather some brilliant facts. The children collaborated extremely well in their groups, and this teamwork helped them produce some incredible non-chronological reports about cheetahs later in the week.
We have also been working hard as historians and have thoroughly enjoyed our topic on kings, queens and castles. During this topic, we have discovered many fascinating facts and learned about several significant monarchs throughout British history.
Try asking your child the question: “Why did monarchs build castles?” and see if they can remember!
The children have been working hard in DT to create coin purses. They have really enjoyed learning sewing skills and practicing their cutting. The children have learned how to thread a needle, tie a knot and use a running stitch. They used a template to then cut out the fabric for their purses, then stitched the 2 pieces together. They then created their own templates to add a design to the front and glued them on.
The children in class 2 enjoyed Eid celebrations in the classroom. We had the opportunity to learn from Mrs Bibi as well as take part in a range of activities including designing a prayer mat and Mendhi patterns.
In English the children have been learning how to write a playscript. They have turned the text from the book, ‘Into the Forest’, into a play using speech and stage directions. The children then rehearsed and performed their short scenes to the rest of the class, using their presentation skills and spoken language to bring their work to life.
