Hello Year 2 and welcome to another fantastic week of Home Learning!

This week’s Home Learning post will work slightly differently. I will be posting the whole week’s activities at the start of the week rather than daily (feedback suggests that people may find this helpful in preparing worksheets in advance.) Therefore, I will do 2 separate posts – one for Phonics and Literacy and another for Maths with the learning for the whole week on. I will break each subject down into days so it should still be easy to see what should be done each day. Any questions regarding this, then please contact me and I will be happy to help.

Happy Friday everyone! A massive well done to all the home learners this week across KS1. I know getting back into gear after a half term holiday can be tricky, but I can see from the work sent in that  you have worked your socks off this week. I am so proud.

Today I will giving some ‘Shout Outs!’ to both Y1 and Y2 home learners. Because this is my first week of home learning for both year groups, I am having to be very greedy and mention lots of you! Here are some children who have made me smile this week…

Connor M who has completed every task set and gone above and beyond.

Lucas for excellent work all week and smashed his Mental Maths test today :)

Tori, who mum tells me has been doing wonderful reading and English at home. We knew you could do it Tori. You always work so hard.

Zachary for Literacy using exclamation marks.

Kayson for excellent Mental Maths and also for being so forgiving to his rabbit for eating the plants he was growing.

Max for absolutely amazing phonics word all week.

Finley for getting straight back into home learning and having a go at everything and more!

Louis for a great week all round!

Oliver for super independent work this week.

Both Niamh and Summer for a fantastic castle project.

Dylan for a fascinating butterfly experience.

Then to everyone in Y2 for their wonderful efforts and scores on your PurpleMash spelling quiz. No wonder your test results have been fabulous today.

I hope I haven’t missed anyone as I have been thoroughly impressed everyday by everyone.

Have a lovely, much deserved fun weekend.

Miss Hailey.
