Wow Year 2! You have really shown such dedication and enthusiasm in this week’s learning. In Maths, we have continued our topic of place value and have learned how to compare objects and numbers. Our English unit continued with our story of The Tunnel, where we changed certain features and wrote a narrative. There were some really spooky descriptions of haunted houses involved which definitely scared some of the Year 2 teachers! Our Reading unit continued as we read Claude Going for Gold and with such a big focus on vocabulary, we are certainly learning lots of new words. In Science we have learned about our living things and their habitats. Did you know that even our playground can be considered a habitat? We hope that everyone had a lovely week and as we learned in our RE lessons, remember to be kind! ### Year 2 Highlights 17/09/21 [![](https://files.schudio.com/thepalmeracademy/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/year-2-highlights-17-09-21/y2.1.jpg)](https://files.schudio.com/thepalmeracademy/images/gallery/year-2-highlights-17-09-21/y2.1.jpg) [![](https://files.schudio.com/thepalmeracademy/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/year-2-highlights-17-09-21/y2.2.jpg)](https://files.schudio.com/thepalmeracademy/images/gallery/year-2-highlights-17-09-21/y2.2.jpg) [![](https://files.schudio.com/thepalmeracademy/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/year-2-highlights-17-09-21/y2.3.jpg)](https://files.schudio.com/thepalmeracademy/images/gallery/year-2-highlights-17-09-21/y2.3.jpg) [![](https://files.schudio.com/thepalmeracademy/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/year-2-highlights-17-09-21/y2.4.jpg)](https://files.schudio.com/thepalmeracademy/images/gallery/year-2-highlights-17-09-21/y2.4.jpg) [![](https://files.schudio.com/thepalmeracademy/images/gallery/year-2-highlights-17-09-21/y2.5.jpg)](https://files.schudio.com/thepalmeracademy/images/gallery/year-2-highlights-17-09-21/y2.5.jpg) [![](https://files.schudio.com/thepalmeracademy/imagecache/100x100c/news/y1.2.jpg)](https://www.thepalmeracademy.com/news/2021-09-13-year-1-highlights) Previous ### [Year 1 Highlights](https://www.thepalmeracademy.com/news/2021-09-13-year-1-highlights) [![](https://files.schudio.com/thepalmeracademy/imagecache/100x100c/news/32.png)](https://www.thepalmeracademy.com/news/2021-09-24-year-3-highlights) Next ### [Year 3 Highlights](https://www.thepalmeracademy.com/news/2021-09-24-year-3-highlights) ### News & Events - [News](https://www.thepalmeracademy.com/news) - [Upcoming Events](https://www.thepalmeracademy.com/events) - [Newsletters](https://www.thepalmeracademy.com/news-events/Newsletters) - [![Absence Reporting Link](https://files.schudio.com/thepalmeracademy/images/partners/1(1)_(1).png)](https://www.thepalmeracademy.com/absence-reporting) - [![Accelerated Reader](https://files.schudio.com/thepalmeracademy/images/partners/2(1)_(1).png)](https://login.renaissance.com/12d2ca4f-6beb-4887-82ee-ddfbdb0b88d4?state=145e0c43-7ae1-46eb-a2d3-c9224036ffb3) ##### Location 70 Northumberland Avenue Reading Berkshire RG2 7PP ##### Contact Us 0118 9375481 ##### Stay Connected - [X](https://twitter.com/R2PalmerAcademy) - [Youtube](https://www.youtube.com/c/ThePalmerAcademy) © Copyright 2015–2026 The Palmer Academy School & Trust Websites by [ ![Schudio logo](https://www.thepalmeracademy.com/img/logo/light.png) ](https://www.schudio.com/)
