Class 2 2020 - 2021

Miss Parker-Smith

Welcome to Class 2!

Miss Parker-Smith is Class 2's teacher. Mrs Driver is our Teaching Assistant. We will also have Miss Prince in our classroom for some of the afternoons.

"I am new to SJSM and am so looking forward to meeting everyone. I have been teaching for 25 years, having taught every year group and held many management and leadership roles."

"Living with my fiance, we have a love for animals, having 6 dogs of our own, some cold water fish in a small pond outside and tropical fish in two tanks inside. I like to cycle, run (a little bit,) read (lots,) ride my motorbike and I am also a Dog Groomer. My favourite food is cheese and I love Galaxy chocolate. Purple, turquiose and green are my favourite colours and I love nature. I can hardly wait to meet you!"

Our Class Values:

Class 2 will create their own class values similar to these in our first few days back at shcool...

We will respect everyone and everything.

We will be resilient.

We will show compassion.

We will be good friends (like a family!)

We will be creative!

Our Internet Safety Charter:

All of the children in Class 2 willl agree that in order to be safe online they will follow rules similar to these, which we will discuss in our first few days back at school:

- Always ask a grown up for help

- Don't download or install anything without asking a grown up first

- Remember, not all games and videos are for children

- Don't talk to strangers and don't tell them where you live

- If unsure, ALWAYS ASK FOR HELP

Numbers and Place value

Our P.E. days are Wednesdays and Fridays. Children will come home in their PE kits on a Friday for their weekly washing, as required by new restrictions.
However, please ensure that PE Kits are in school each day, with every item named clearly. All pump bags must now be the draw string type, not rucksacks, etc., due to COVID-19 restrictions.

Reading Books will be changed regularly, but children have the opportunity to change daily as required. Please only bring into school your book bag with your reading book and your water bottle, which must have your name on it. Remember, no other items to help keep us all safe.

Don't Forget: click on the GREY tabs at the top of the page to find out much more information about our class as we come back to school!

Below is the parent information on Y1 Phonics Screening Tests. These should have taken place in June 2020 for 2020-21 Year 2 children. However, due to temporary, partial school closures, they will now take place in November 2020. We will be recapping and revising all our Phonics Phases, from 2-5, this term, and homework to help children revise will be sent home as required.

New, 2021 end of KS1 SATs information will be added to our page, as soon as it is received from the government.

Any questions, parents please email or ring in to school.
