Supporting your Child in Year 2

Please see below some strategies for helping your child in Year 2. You will also find further information in the curriculum pages. 

• Please try to listen to your child read every night - just a page or two will make a big difference. Remind them to 'say the sounds and read the words' and reread sentences to build up fluency and confidence. 
• Share and discuss knowledge organisers. Practice key vocabulary and talk about learning. 
• Visit LetterJoin to practice forming letters and watch letter formation videos 

Maths 

Please find below some maths strategies that will support your child within their learning. Please note that these will gradually introduced and so your child may not be familiar with them yet. 

If you have questions about supporting your child with maths strategies, please do get in touch.
