Omar, the Bees and Me Year 2 fully resourced English planning

Welcome to our three-week fully resourced English planning based on ‘Omar, the Bees and Me’ by Helen Mortimer. The fifteen fully resourced English lessons have been specifically written for Year 2 children. Throughout the English scheme of work, the children will learn fascinating facts about bees and use their knowledge to write a non-chronological report about honey bees. Following this, your class will be buzzing with excitement when they get to make their own honey cake and write a set of instructions for other people to follow their recipe.

Our English plans are a hive of resources: teaching videos intricately linked to the text covering grammar concepts, differentiated activities, whiteboard slides, word banks and a whole hive of visual prompts and scaffolding for the learners in your class.

This fully resourced English scheme of work is beautiful as a stand-alone unit of work, or it might be just what you are looking for to link your English lessons to your topic if you are studying ‘Animals including humans’ or ‘Minibeasts’.

Please note that this download is lesson 1 and lesson 2. The whole scheme can be downloaded from Teaching From Text’s website.
