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:
