Science in Year 2
By the end of Year 2, the children will have revisited and recapped what they had learnt in Year 1 and built on these knowledge and skills. They will learn and explore everyday materials, animals and humans, living things and their habitats and plants. Below there is more detail about what will be learnt by the end of each topic and useful links to support your child to retain what they have learnt at home.

We are passionate at ensuring key skills in English are transferred over to cross-curricular writing in Science. Scientific vocabulary and concepts are always clearly displayed for the children to use in their writing, too!
