Year 2 Spelling activity – Thursday 7th January

 

Hi year 2,

Here is todays spelling activity. Can you find all of the ‘le’ words in the wordsearch? Remember that you only need to do the wordsearch that matches your spellings for this week. If you are unsure which one to do then just send us an email and we’ll remind you.

le wordsearch 5 words le wordsearch 7 words le wordsearch 10 words

When you have found them all, have another go at ‘Look, cover, write, check’ like you did yesterday. Were you better today? Did you spell more right this time? If not, don’t worry, just keep trying.

 

Please email a photo of your work to ‘newdale.year2team@taw.org.uk’ or post on the school website year 2 homework blog. Thank you.

YR2 Times Tables (Thursday 7th January)

x2 times table jungle race

Good morning,

Can you help the monkey get to his banana snack? It’s a race so remember to time how long it takes you. (You could even give your monkey a name.)

Good luck.

Mrs Horler

Should you want to share your score and monkey name feel free to email me or one of the team on Newdale.year2team@taw.org.uk

Year 2 Home Learning Thursday 7th January

Hello Year 2!

Here is your learning for Thursday 7th January 😊

There will be two live lessons, Maths at 9.30am (looking at pictograms) and Literacy at 11am (working on adjectives and adverbs).  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 questions on the sheet below should be answered.  You do not need to print this sheet but the children will need to see it so they can work out their answers.

Thursday Maths

Thursday adverbs and adjectives

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. 

As always, spelling and times tables activities will be posted online daily.

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

We understand that this is a very difficult time for parents and we are extremely grateful for all of your support.

Many thanks,

Miss Newport and Miss Jones 😊 😊

Free SIM cards

At school we have a limited number of a 30GB data-only SIMs for which last for 90 days. We would like to offer these to help support children access the online learning.  The SIM cards will work with a Smart Laptop/Dongle if it has a slot for a SIM card, you simply place it in.

 

The SIM card can be placed into a Smartphone. You can then use that data to connect or ‘tether’ your others devices (eg tablet, laptop) by using the ‘Hotspot’ feature on the phone. You would not be able to use your phone to make calls/texts while using your data SIM.

 

If you would like a 30GB sim card, please email newdale.primary@taw.org.uk and request one (first come, first served). The data must be used to support home schooling during this national lockdown.

 

The SIM cards are limited to 30GB, so once that data limit is reached, no further data is available and once the 90 days has ended, any remainder of the 30GB of data will expire.

 

Regards

PARENT GOVERNOR ELECTION: BALLOT PAPER

Dear Parent,

PARENT GOVERNOR ELECTION: BALLOT PAPER

The parents standing for election are listed on the ballot paper enclosed. Personal statements of the candidates are reproduced on the reverse of the ballot paper.

The number of parent governors to be elected is one. You should cast your vote by marking X in the box provided against the candidate(s) of your choice. Each parent has one vote for each vacancy irrespective of the number of children s/he has at the school. This means that in this election, you may vote for only one candidate. You may not cast more than one vote for the same candidate. Should you do so your ballot paper will have to be declared ‘spoiled’ and discounted.

The ballot paper (Form 5) should be returned to me via your child or by any other means you may prefer not later than 12 noon 12th January 2021. Any ballot papers received after this time cannot be counted.

A “Parent”, in relation to this election, includes anyone who is not a parent but who has parental responsibility for, or who has the care of, a registered pupil at the school.

Please find all information in the link below.

Phonics

Hello to all the children in my Phonics sessions, I hope you had a lovely Christmas and Happy New Year! I thought it may be useful to share a few links to some frequently used websites in school so that you can use them to help you with your spelling practice at home.

https://www.phonicsbloom.com/

https://www.phonicsplay.co.uk/

There are also numerous Youtube videos to help you along, such as Geraldine the Giraffe and Mr Thorne, plus lots of songs and videos that can be found by searching specific sounds such as ai, ee, igh etc.

Miss Hammond.

Reading in Year 2!

Oxford Owl is a free to use, online bank of resources. The website address is www.oxfordowl.co.uk  Parents can make their own accounts on this website to access e-books, phonics, reading and maths activities. There is also lots of advice on this website regarding how to support your child’s learning at home. You may still have access to the same account that you used in Year 1.

On the ‘Free e-book library’, you can select books that match the coloured book banded books that your child brings home each day.  You can also organise the books according to the phonics level that your child is reading at.

Many of the books have an audio feature, so that your child can listen to the story whilst also reading it themselves. Most of the e-books within this section of the website also have comprehension activities that your child can complete after reading the book.

And don’t forget there are also some useful websites where you can practise your phonics to then apply in your reading books. See the links below.

Please try to read once a day.  Reading is such an important skill and developing your skills at a young age is vital.  You can still record reading in your reading diaries and we look forward to seeing them when we get back to school.

📘 📕 📗Happy reading everyone,📗 📕 📘
