Times Tables and Number Fluency

Please allow your child time to access Numbots and TTrockstars. Their log in details for this can be found in the cover of their school diaries. Please contact the school office should you require this information.

Spellings:

Please continue to work on the Year 2 High Frequency and Common Exception Words. Ask your child about the methods we use in school to help them to learn spellings: boxing up, adding a picture, writing in a sentence etc. 

Reading:

Ask your child to read the extract of text and answer the questions on their own. Then ask them to read the text out loud and discuss the answers that they have given. Encourage them to go back to the text to find and copy the answers where possible rather than guessing or using memory. 

Please continue to listen to your child read their school reading book or any other books that you may have at home. Newsround has a good variety of news articles that the children enjoy reading, but please check their suitability first.

Weekly Project:

This week in Topic w have been looking at the work of artist who have depicted moving transport in their artwork. We have been discussing the techniques that the artists have used and the children have been experimenting with these techniques to create their own pieces of artwork.

Can you copy one of the pieces of art?

Can you create your own piece of art?

Can you research and find a different piece of art that shows movement?

Pick an artist and write a biography of their life.
