Literacy
This year in Literacy we are continuing to follow the Pathways to Write scheme. Pathways to Write is built around units of work which develop vocabulary, reading and writing skills through a mastery approach. Key skills are taught and repeated, allowing children multiple opportunities throughout each unit to apply their skills until they can be fully mastered. Here are the texts we will be focusing on in Year 2:

In Year 4, we use Power Maths as a basis of our maths lesson. This is an exciting class mastery approach, which has been recommended by the DfE, that works for every child. It is based upon the concrete, pictorial and abstract approach.
Every lesson is divided into sections that involve plenty of discovery, sharing, collaboration, practice and reflection. Children are encouraged to solve problems each day through the use of concrete resources, pictorial representations and abstract thinking.
At the heart of this programme is the idea that all children can achieve and be successful mathematicians with the right growth mindset. It promotes five child friendly characters, each with their own positive skillset, to inspire and motivate children. These characters are:
