Fabulous Friday - 5th February 2021
Date: 4th Feb 2021 @ 3:06pm
It’s Fabulous Friday!
Fridays are now a lighter day with limited screen time to give you and your families the chance to catch up and switch off!
Today you just need to:
• Read
• Complete the number activity
• Finish anything off that you want to upload to Seesaw for your teacher to see
The rest of the day is yours, you’ve earned it!
Well done for completing another week of home learning Year 2. In school, we are going to try to be active today. We are going to make sure we have a full 60 minutes of activity whether that’s through dance, play or the Daily Mile. You could try doing the same at home. Go for a walk and get active.
Today we are taking part in ‘Dress to Express Day’ at school. Dress in your bright colours to celebrate the theme of Children’s Mental Health Week. Use it as a way to express yourself! Self-expression is a great way to relieve stress and free your mind.
Next week we are celebrating Dance Week with a whole school dance project. Mr Mears will teach us our routine (see video) and we hope to see everyone take part in school and at home.
Please view our ‘Friday Catch Up’ on Seesaw where we discuss all of your amazing achievements throughout the week.
Reading
It is ESSENTIAL that children continue to read every single day. This should be for a minimum of 20 minutes.
Predict – Look at the book cover/blurb – what do you think this book will be about?
What do you think will happen next? What makes you think this?
Number activity
You could help your parents go shopping today or you can choose 6 items from your cupboard at home. After you have been shopping, choose 6 different items each costing less than £1. Make a price label for each one e.g. 39p, 78p. Shuffle the labels. Then ask your child to do one or more of these:
♦ Place the labels in order, starting with the lowest.
♦ Say which price is an odd number and which is an even number.
♦ Add 9p to each price.
♦ Take 20p from each price in their head.
♦ Say which coins to use to pay exactly for each item.
♦ Choose any two of the items, and find their total cost.
♦ Work out the change from £1 for each item.
We hope you all have a brilliant weekend.
Year 2 team.
