RE and PSHE 🌍

In RE, we will be exploring the question “Who is a Muslim and how do they live?” We will learn about some of the beliefs, practices and traditions that are important to Muslims and develop our understanding and respect for different religious beliefs and ways of life. We will also have a visit at some point during the year to a place of worship. Updates will be given about our exciting trip soon!

In PSHE, the second unit of work in the Year 2 Jigsaw PSHE scheme is Puzzle 2: Celebrating Difference.

In this unit, children explore what makes them unique, recognise similarities and differences between themselves and others, and learn about kindness, friendship, inclusion and respect. They also learn about bullying, how it can make people feel, and how to respond appropriately.

Computing 💻

In Year 2, we will be following the Purple Mash Computing Scheme of Work. is Unit 2.2 – Online Safety. Children learn how to use technology safely and responsibly, including recognising safe and unsafe situations when using digital devices.

We will continue to work on 2.1 Coding, to develop the children’s understanding of how computer programs work. They will learn to create and follow simple algorithms, use sequences of instructions, predict what will happen in a program and begin to identify and correct errors through debugging.
