Hi Year 2,

I hope that you had a superb start to your learning yesterday. Who’s ready for today? I’m sure you all are!

Here are Tuesday’s home learning activities.

Phonics

I understand that the phonics videos are now repeating themselves because all of the sounds have been taught. If you feel that revisiting these sounds is worthwhile for your child, please do keep accessing the videos using the link below:

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.

Remember, you should be reading for at least half an hour each day. Also try to read both a range of fiction and non-fiction books.

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 2

Read pages 4-7 of the RSPB Nature Birds Guide by clicking the front cover opposite. This could be by reading the text to your child or by reading a paragraph, or page, to each other.

Return to the Birdwatcher’s Code on p5 (the second page of the extract). Re-read and discuss. Create a poster on how to be a respectful birdwatcher. Use colours and illustrate your poster with care.

Times tables

Click here for a website which will help you to practise your times tables even more. You can create a free account which will enable you to see which medals you have collected along the way. Remember in Year 2, our main tables to focus on are 2, 5 and 10, but you could have a go at 3s too for an extra challenge.

Don’t forget to check the weekly challenges for more learning!

Have a lovely day,

Miss Woodend
