Summer Term 2026
This summer term in Geography, pupils will be learning about the seven continents and five oceans. They will build on their prior knowledge of compass points to describe locations and develop their understanding of the Earth, including the Equator and the North and South Poles. This learning is closely linked to our History topic on famous explorers. Pupils will study significant figures such as Neil Armstrong, Ernest Shackleton and Ibn Battuta, exploring their journeys and the different parts of the world they travelled to. They will also consider the impact of these explorers and why their achievements remain important today.
Please look at our Newsletter and Topic web attached for a detailed overview of our learning this term.
Learning outside of school:
Reading is the gateway to all learning, so we ask that you read with your child for just 10-15 minutes each evening and sign their reading diary. Your child's book will link to their daily Read Write Inc sessions and will be changed each week.
Alongside reading every day, your child also has access to online games that will support their learning in school.
- Purple Mash is a great resource for all curriculum areas
- TTRockstars is great for practicing quick fire times tables; which Year 2 need to know.
- Numbots is a counting and number game which is great for all children in Class 2.
Your child with have all login details for these in the front of their communication diary
