Key Stage 1 at Hemlington builds seamlessly from our Early Years curriculum – to offer a broad and rich introduction to specific subject learning, through the excitement of a range of interesting topics!
Year 2 is taught by Mrs Laden, Miss Solomon and Mrs Scott and is a very exciting place to be!
The Year 2 ‘Long Term Plans’ are available to view below. These plans detail which topics children will cover, as well as which subjects are taught and when – as well as how the legal ‘National Curriculum’ has been appropriately interwoven in to our curriculum.
Below, are the individual unit overviews for Year 2 parents and carers. These detail what children will be learning in each unit – and how you can help at home! Each term these are updated in advance to reflect any changes which have made to our curriculum.
If you have any questions about the curriculum in Year 2, please get in touch with the team, who will be happy to talk about all of the exciting things planned!
Year 2 Phonics
Children will continue their Phonics journey within Year 2 throughout the Autumn term. Beyond the Autumn term, many children will be secure and will have completed their Phonics learning.
Where children still have gaps and are not yet applying their Phonics skills confidently when reading, they will access the Rapid Catch Up program. This provides additional daily support to fill these gaps and catch them up within their learning as quickly and effectively as possible.
Some useful links to help your child learn at home.
