Year 2 Home Learning Challenges - Wednesday 13th May

It’s the middle of the week Year 2. Well done for making it this far! I wonder what’s in store for today’s learning … let’s find out!

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 3

horrid henry birthday party.jpg

Return to the theme of Henry’s birthday party from yesterday. Talk about how a birthday party takes a lot of preparation and planning! Today, you are going to help Henry’s family with the planning and make some lists. Re-watch the animated version here, up to 3:36 mins:

Imagine you are Henry’s Mum. Write a list of all the party food Mum would like to buy. Continue to add more items than those mentioned in the clip. Now imagine that you are Henry. Write a list of all the party food that Henry would like to buy. Add some more items to this list too!

Remember to use commas to separate all the items on your list!

Later on, (5:10 mins) Dad says, ‘I know lots of good games.’

Make a list of all the party games that could be played at Henry’s party. Talk about how Henry might spoil each one.

Watch to the end of the story. Imagine you are either Henry or Henry’s Mum. Write some sentences listing all the reasons why you think Henry should or shouldn’t have a birthday party next year. Check all sentences for spelling and punctuation together.
