Hello Year 2!

We hope you have had a wonderful weekend and you are ready for some more home learning this week!

Spellings – the spelling rule for this week is ‘a before l and ll’ . We have set you the Purple Mash quiz to complete and your spellings can be found here.

a before l and ll spellings

Please note that there are some different words in the quiz, however they all follow this week’s spelling rule.

Literacy – This week in Literacy we will be reading a book called Sky-scraping Sunflowers.  Each day you will read a chapter and complete a comprehension quiz, missing word activity and a joining words activity.  This will help you to practise your reading and literacy skills.  Today, please read Chapter 1 and complete the activities – you will find all of these in your Purple Mash 2dos.

Maths – this week we will be continuing to learn about measure using the White Rose materials.  Today is about comparing lengths. The video you need can be found here

And the worksheet to be completed is here.

Times Tables Rockstars – Don’t forget to practise your x2, x3, x5 and x10 tables.  Miss Horler and Miss Rouse are ready to set challenges on TTRS.  For your login details look in your blue homelink book or email your class teacher.

Afternoon activities – This week’s theme is Music, please see ideas below.

When you complete a music activity please upload them to the Year 2 homework blog for us to see.

Assembly – We are sure that you are all missing Mr Wilcox’s music assembly.  He has made some music videos for you to join in with at home.  Tomorrow’s vocal activity is called ‘It is fun to sing!’  and you can find the video here.  Enjoy! 🎵

Hello Year 2!

Here are some activities for you to complete this sunny Wednesday 🌞🌞🌞

Spellings – Today use this week’s spellings (adding s to words ending in y) to play the dice game.  If you don’t have a dice at home then you could pick the numbers from a hat instead.

Literacy – On Purple Mash you will find today’s activity in your 2do section.  It is called Powerful Alien Words.  You need to write interesting sentences to match the pictures of the aliens.  Try to use adjectives, adverbs and conjunctions in your writing.  You could also use the paint tools to draw your own picture of an alien to describe!  👽🛸👾

Maths – We are moving onto Measures now in Maths, starting with measuring length in centimetres.  You can find the video you need here:

And the worksheet to be completed here:

We are really enjoying seeing your artwork this week and it seems that you are enjoying completing the activities too! Please choose another idea from the art sheet which you have not tried yet this week.

Thank you for working hard Year 2 and for sharing your work with us – we are very proud of you all!

Keep smiling 😊
