PSHE Learning with the Oak Academy
Personal, Social, Health and Economic (PSHE) education allows pupils to develop the knowledge, skills and attributes they need to manage their lives, now and in the future. These skills and attributes help pupils to stay healthy, safe and prepare them for life and work in modern Britain.
In class we enjoy Circle Times to share our ideas and thoughts with our class friends, role play scenarios and our class books to record our work. Whilst we are learning at home, the Oak Academy video lessons are a great way to keep us up to date with our PSHE learning and share it with our families

A habitat must provide everything that a living thing (organism) needs to survive. Some habitats need to be hot and some habitats need to be cold. A camel couldn't survive in the cold and a polar bear couldn't survive in the heat.
Below there is an activity. We would like you to match the animals to their habitat. Can you write some sentences to say what the habitat provides.
There are some links to different habitats that you can look at.

Reading in Year 2
At St Paul's we love reading! Our goal is to instil a life-long love for reading and we want our children to take pleasure in all that reading can bring. Reading at St Paul's is designed to develop and enable ALL children to reach their full potential. We aim for our children to leave school as confident and fluent readers.
We introduce children to a variety of literature through structured guided reading lessons, storytime, links with the local library, celebrating world book day and books are used as a stimulus for learning in other areas of the curriculum.
We know how important it is to hear children read. Our reading sessions are designed so that each child can read and discuss a book with the teacher and class teaching assistant. Children will also have opportunities to read with a reading volunteer where possible.
We value the contributions parents and carers make to the teaching of reading. Each child has a reading record which parents/carers and teachers complete. This record is a means of communicating about your child’s reading.
