Welcome to Room 2!

I am Lila Roy, the Room 2 teacher at our school. Our classroom has small numbers of year 2, 3 and 4 students. The learning programmes in our classroom focus strongly on numeracy and literacy, and the smaller class numbers mean that the individual strengths, skills, interests and needs can be catered for.

Room 2 - Building on the Early Years

In Room 2, we build on the strong literacy and numeracy foundation skills developed in Room 3. With a continued emphasis on literacy and numeracy, the children are gradually encouraged to set more of their own learning goals and become independent readers and writers. We follow an Inquiry based learning model to explore other curriculum areas and the children enjoy asking questions, planning and conducting their own research. Children in Room 2 are also given some opportunities to develop early
leadership skills eg. through buddy reading activities.35 Making fractions fun!

High Jump

Every week we do the high jump in athletic's time. This is every day during the summer. We have learnt that you must get your legs up high over the bar.
