Year 2 Spelling activity – Monday 7th December

Jumping Orange Words.

Hi everybody, to help you learn your spellings today we have got two puzzles for you to do. The first is a wordsearch (I know you love doing these!) and the second is a Word Scramble sheet. Can you unscramble the letters to make your spelling words? Perhaps you could test one of your grown ups by scrambling one of the words yourself for them to unscramble.

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

 

Year 2 – Mrs Thomas’s Phonics Group – Monday 7th December

Hi all, today we are going to play an online game to help us practise using all of our Phase 5 sounds. I hope you haven’t forgotten any. The game is called ‘Phonics Frog’.

You have to help the frog to cross the road by clicking when it is safe and then cross the river by jumping on the logs that have real words written on them. See how far you can get your frog without hurting him/her.

After you click on the play button, click the ‘Revise all’ button (shown below) so that you get to see words using lots of different sounds.

Have fun and look after your frog!

Year 2 – Return to school

4th December 2020

Dear Parents/Carers of Year 2 children,

Thank you for supporting your children so well with our online learning offer. We understand that it is tricky, but are delighted with how hard the children have worked.

We are really looking forward to getting back to normality next week.

Everyone is welcome back on the 8th December. We have our fingers crossed that nothing affects this bubble again and hope the children are looking forward to the last few weeks as we build up to Christmas.

It is really important to us that you continue to keep a very careful eye on your child by way of their health. Please do not send them back to school if they are displaying any of the primary Covid 19 symptoms or the secondary symptoms as show on this poster…

Coronavirus_Getting_a_test_and_when_to_isolate_with_booking_a_test_option (1)

Tests are easy to book with results coming through very quickly now. We would rather you aired on the side of caution to avoid any further disruption across school.

If you have any questions, do ring the office who will be more than happy to help.
