Hello and a warm welcome to Year 2 at St. John’s Mosley Common! A typical morning in Jay class begins with prayer and a morning activity. This is followed by Mathematics, where we are learning to be fluent with key facts and concepts then apply our understanding to reasoning and problem-solving challenges. After playtime, we have a Phonics lesson to develop the accuracy of our reading, writing and spelling. This is followed by English with either a reading comprehension (book talk) or writing focus.
Our afternoons begin with class worship before we enjoy a variety of subjects from the wider and creative curriculum, including science, topic, music, computing and RE. Either art or design technology is taught alternately, each half term, over the course of a full week of afternoon sessions.
Physical Education lessons take place twice a week, enabling pupils to develop their motor skills and co-ordination through a range of fun units of work from gymnastics and dance to athletics and invasion games. St. John's has an 'open door' policy and your child's well-being and academic success is of paramount importance to us. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact the school office on 0161 790 2195 and we will be happy to arrange a mutually convenient time for a telephone call or a meeting.
