Beech Class

Welcome to Beech Class!

Beech Class (Year 2) is taught by Mrs Nicholson. Mrs Atkinson supports the class each day and also supervises lunches.

During the Summer Term of Year 2 pupils take part in Key Stage 1 statutory assessments (SATS) which assesses their of understanding of maths, reading, grammar, punctuation and spelling and writing. Daily reading of the book your child brings home and practice of times tables and weekly spellings is the best way you can support your child to do well - not just in their SATS - but across all subject areas. 

Pupils in Beech Class continue to enjoy weekly Forest School sessions linked to the wider curriculum every Tuesday. We're very lucky to have our own school wood; the changing natural environment provides a wonderful space for your child to learn, explore and challenge themselves in a safe and familiar setting. 

 

 

Homework: Homework is given every Monday and is due to be handed in the following Monday. Children will be given maths every week and then either SPAG or comprehension alternate weeks.

Spellings: Six spellings will be given every Monday and tested on a Friday along with five other words using the same spelling pattern.

Forest Schools: Our Forest School session is on a Tuesday afternoon. Children need to come dressed in suitable clothes, including a warm/waterproof  coat, wellies and a spare pair of shoes for walking around school.

PE: Our P.E lesson is on a Wednesday. Children need to come dressed in their PE kit comprising of white t-shirt, black shorts, leggings or jogging bottoms, trainers, Stakesby hoody or Stakesby jumper/cardigan. Hair should be tied back and any earrings should be removed before the lesson.
