Year 2
Our Teacher: Miss Stringfellow & Mrs Challender
Our Teaching Partner is Mrs Bowles
We used the story Clark the Shark by Bruce Hale to help us think of our class rules.
Welcome to Year 2!
In Year 2, we work hard to be the best that we can be. We always try our best and we challenge ourselves to have a go at new things. We are supportive of each other and we celebrate each other’s successes. We have an inclusive curriculum and we make learning fun and engaging for everyone.
So far this year, we have enjoyed learning about animals and humans in Science, the World’s Continents in Geography and how to keep safe online in Computing. We have been busy getting creative in art by using a range of natural materials to create different pictures and sculptures. We love going on school trips and so far, this term, we have been to the Library with our buddies and to the cinema to watch Sing 2 as part of the Into Film Festival. We are looking forward to the school trips yet to come in Year 2.

Growth Mindset
Growth mindset is about having a positive attitude and supports being a successful learner.
Showing a growth mindset helps us face challenges, overcome failure and
be resilient. At WCP we celebrate mistakes in all subjects as we know that that can be the first attempt in learning. We discuss how our
learning behaviours contribute to be successful in school and relate this to
future ambitions. Each term we focus on a particular learning behaviour
that is linked to growth mindset and certificates are awarded to children who show these learning behaviours in school.
Autumn 1 - Hardworking
Autumn 2 - Reflective
Spring 1 - Persevering
Spring 2 - Up for a challenge

We enjoy listening to this song in class to help us develop our own Growth Mindsets!
