Welcome to Vulcans Class          

Vulcans class is a family of hard-working, determined and eager to learn Year 2 children. We always try our best in everything that we do and also have lots of fun along the way! We are taught by Mrs Smith on a Monday and Tuesday and Mrs Porter on a Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. We also have the fab Mr Walker to help us in the afternoons. Read on to find out about what we are getting up to this term and keep your eyes peeled on our social media for regular updates!

For any questions, please send an email to Vulcans@sturton-by-stow.lincs.sch.uk and we will get back to you as soon as possible!

Our PE days are Wednesday and Thursday. On these days, please send your children to school in their (weather appropriate) PE kit for the whole day. 

Term 1

This term, we have lots of exciting learning that will be happening across the curriculum! In English, we will be delving into the hidden world of crayons, whilst in Maths, we will be exploring Place Value. In History, we will be comparing and contrasting transport from across the years, which links well to our PE, where we will be thinking about movement in gymnastics as well as dodging and multi-skills. In science, we will also be thinking about travel as we will be investigating different materials and computing will involve coding to plan routes.

English

During our English lessons, we are going to be using the story 'The Day the Crayons Quit' by Drew Daywalt to inspire us within our letter writing. This term, we are actually accompanied by a set of giant crayons who will be helping us on our journey. We will be exploring the purpose and features of a letter, before also investigating the grammar that is necessary to include.

Maths

This term in Maths, we will be working on Place Value, thinking about tens and ones. Here, we will be thinking about how we can use number lines, part-whole models and place value charts to represent and partition our numbers. We will also be comparing numbers using our greater than and less than symbols.
