Welcome to Wednesday’s wonderful learning Year 2! I hope that you have a super day - halfway through the week already!
Phonics
Access the RWI sessions below. All the children would benefit from accessing the set 3 sounds lesson, however some might also benefit from the other sessions.
Set 1 Speed Sounds at 9.30 am
Set 2 Speed Sounds at 10.00 am
Set 3 Speed Sounds at 10.30 am
If you do however, feel that these sessions are not really benefiting your child, please feel free to access reading materials for a little longer instead.
Reading
Continue reading and quizzing on books using the Accelerated Reading and Epic Reading resources. Help can be found in the ‘How to help your child’ section of my page if you need it.
It also isn’t too late to sign up for the Epic Reading resource. If you would like access to a huge range of books, some with quizzes, please send an email to l.woodend@ourladystarofthesea.lancs.sch.uk. This will enable me to send you an invite to create an account.

Day 3 - The Tummy Beast
Use the link below to listen to and enjoy The Tummy Beast from Dirty Beasts by Roald Dahl.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tinzhrgFILE
Watch the clip again, this time while following the text, accessible here:
https://www.poetryfoundation.org/poems/51659/the-tummy-beast
If you are able to, print off the text from the link above. Highlight the lines spoken by the mother in one colour, and those spoken by the child in another.
Use this highlighting to help you read the text aloud together. Put on your best character voices to perform! Perhaps you could take on different roles in your family!
Discuss what is happening in the poem. Why do you think the mother doesn’t believe the child? How is the child feeling when the mother doesn’t believe them? What happened to the mother at the end? What do you think the mother might say when she recovers?
Write a diary entry as if you were the child or the mother, recounting the key events of the day. You could even pinch some key words and phrases used in the poem!
