Year 2 Spelling – Friday 15th January

Hi all, today is spelling test day. Yay! Can you please complete your spelling test of the homophone words that you have been learning this week and then email your score to newdale.year2team@taw.org.uk. Good luck!

Next weeks spellings are all words that end with ‘el’. Here is a short video, explaining how these letters sound when placed at the end of a word.

 

A copy of your spellings can be found here.

el ending spellings

Remember to choose the correct page to practise. Those of you that work with Miss Newport or Miss Jones for spellings need the sheet with 10 words, those of you that work with Mrs Thomas or Mrs Horler need the sheet with 7 spellings and those of you that work with Mrs Fullerton need the sheet with 5 spellings. If you can’t remember which group you are in then just email us at ‘newdale.year2team@taw.org.uk’.

Remember to practise your spellings every day and complete the daily activities that are posted on the website.

Happy spelling!

Year 2 Home Learning – Friday 15th January

Hello Year 2! 
Well done for having another fantastic week! 😊

There will be two live lessons on Friday, Maths at 9.30am (looking at Venn diagrams) and Literacy at 11am (looking at a new story book).  You should have received an invite for this session however if not, then you can join the meeting through the Teams app. Please come to each meeting armed with paper and a pen to write.

Following the lesson, the worksheets below should be completed.  You do not need to print this sheet but the children will need to see it so they can work out their answers.

Friday Maths

Friday Literacy

If you are unable to attend the live sessions, a recording of the lesson will always be available afterwards.  Worksheets and any further instructions will be shared via the website. We understand that this is tricky for some of you working from home, especially those with siblings so we understand that it is not always possible to join live. We hope the recordings help to support this. 

Other home learning activities set for today:

PE – Take a look at the Crossbar PE challenge for this week.

Can you complete the 7minute challenge? Email us to tell us how you get on!

Spellings –You have been practising your spellings all week.  Today ask an adult to help you to do your weekly test and email us your scores.  Good luck!

Times Tables – please see Mrs Horler’s post for today’s activity.

And for a bit of fun – can you sort the pirates onto the Venn/Carroll diagrams? If you cannot print these sheets you could have a go at drawing your own pirates instead!

Pirate Carroll and Venn diagrams

Also keep an eye out for the ‘Star of the Week’ video which will be posted on Friday.

If you have any questions please email us on newdale.year2team@taw.org.uk

Many thanks,

Miss Newport and Miss Jones 😊 😊

Good morning!

By clicking on the blue link below you will be directed to the buried treasure game where you can sort the real from the nonsense words! If you do not have an account you can simply press ‘join’ and use the below log in details. This is a generic log in for the lock down period. Alongside this, you may like to have a go at the phase 4 word search. If you are unable to print it out perhaps you can search for them and write them down on paper once you have found them.

Miss Hammond.

Year 2 Spelling activity – Thursday 14th January

Hi all,

Todays spelling activity is the ‘Dice Bingo’ game. Most of you will have played this before but here is a recap of how to play just in case you’ve forgotten.

1) Print off a bingo board for each player (each player’s board looks the same).

dice phonics game – homophones 6 words dice phonics game – homophones 8 words dice phonics game – homophones 11 words

Remember to choose the board that matches your number of spellings for this week.

2)Take turns to roll the dice (if you don’t have a dice then I have attached a link below to an online one).

https://www.online-stopwatch.com/chance-games/roll-a-dice/

3)Whichever number you roll, you read the word next to that number on your board, highlight it or colour it in and then copy the word on the line underneath. It is then the next players turn.

4)If you roll a number that has been rolled before then read the next word along on the same line.

5)The winner is the first person to colour a line going either across or down. Remember to shout BINGO!

Please email a photo of your work to ‘newdale.year2team@taw.org.uk’ or post on the school website year 2 homework blog. We’d love to see who won!

Phonics

Good morning!

I have shared what may be a useful link below to any parents that would like a bit of information regarding Phonics. It breaks it down nicely and offers ideas of how you can support your child with building up their reading and spelling skills.

A guide to Phonics- What it is and how you can support your child

Here is a little challenge for you to have a go at today to keep practising those phase 4 blends. Good luck, some are a little tricky!

Can you unscramble my words below and put them into the sentences?

  • claplo
  • flshe
  • tsakl
  • cripst
  • rexmtiu
  • ginterdn
  • dvrei
  • ydrege

1.When I am poorly, a bit of ……  often helps me to feel better.

2.Before he left home, the actor forgot to pick up his ……

3.When you turn 17 you are allowed to learn to …..

4.In the classic story, Jack grew a giant bean…..

5.The elf on the ….. made some funny appearances over Christmas.

6.The cake ……. was in need of stirring.

7.The …… child ate all of the sweets and then felt sick!

8.When something is popular on the Internet, it is said to be …….

Finally, don’t forget twinkl are offering free accounts and you can continue your practice with all their fun games. Or you may like to write words down on paper being sure to sound them out and break them down just like we would in school.

Miss Hammond.

Year 2 Spelling activity – Wednesday 13th January

  

Hi year 2.

Today’s spelling activity is a fun game of ‘Snakes and Ladders’…but with a twist! Play it like the normal Snakes and Ladders game (going up a ladder when you land at the bottom of it and going down a snake when you land on it’s head) but also, when you land on a space you have to:

  1. Read the word aloud.
  2. Say the word in a sentence.
  3. Cover it and then spell it aloud.

Wow, lots to do before the next player gets a turn!

Remember to chose the game board that matches your number of spellings for this week. Also, I’ve attached a link to an online dice if you need it.

homophones snakes and ladders – 6 words homophones snakes and ladders – 8 words homophones snakes and ladders – 11 words

https://www.online-stopwatch.com/chance-games/roll-a-dice/

Good luck!
