Tawny Owl Class
Welcome to Tawny Owl Class
Tawny Owl Class is home to our enthusiastic Year 2 learners, where we focus on building confidence, independence, and a deeper understanding of key skills. As part of Upper Key Stage 1, Tawny Owl Class provides a stimulating and engaging environment designed to support children as they prepare for the transition to Key Stage 2.
Upper Key Stage 1 (KS1) Curriculum
The Year 2 curriculum builds on the foundations laid in earlier years, with a strong emphasis on consolidating core skills and developing new ones. Our approach is hands-on, creative, and tailored to the needs of each child. Key areas of focus include:
-
English - Enhancing reading fluency, comprehension, and writing skills. Children explore a range of texts and develop their grammar, punctuation, and spelling knowledge.
-
Mathematics - Building confidence in addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division, alongside problem-solving and reasoning skills.
-
Science - Encouraging scientific enquiry and curiosity through topics like living things, habitats, and materials.
-
Foundation Subjects - Expanding knowledge in history, geography, art, design technology, music, and computing, with a focus on making learning meaningful and exciting.
