Year 2 Spelling activity – Monday 11th January

Hi all, today we are going to practise reading and spelling our homophone words.

First print and cut out the homophone word cards that match your spellings (or make your own if you prefer).

Homophones flashcards – 11 words Homophones flashcards – 8 words Homophones flashcards – 6 words

Game 1: Lay all of the cards out on a table face down…no peeping! Take turns with another member of your family to pick up a card and read it. If you read it correctly first time you get to keep it, if not, put it back on the table and better luck next time. The winner is the person with the most cards at the end.

Optional Game 2: Print/make 2 sets of cards. Lay them in two separate groups face down on the table and play the ‘Pairs’ game – choose one card from each set, if they match and you can read them, then you get to keep them. If they don’t match you have to put them back on the table. Winner is the person with the most sets.

Activity 1: ‘Look, cover, write, check’ – ask an adult to show you one of the flashcards for 5 seconds, they then hide the card while you write the word. Now check. Are you right? If you made a mistake, then be the teacher and correct it.

Remember to have fun while you learn!
