Year 2 Home Learning - 6th January 2021
Date: 5th Jan 2021 @ 1:04pm
Good morning everyone!
We hope you are excited to start your home learning today. We can’t wait to see what you get up to. Each day we will be focusing on Spellings, English, Maths and foundation subjects along with additional fun activities. We will explain the structure on here each day but please refer to the additional uploaded documents for each specific lesson guidance and resources. Remember, you can collect exercise books, stationary and additional resources from school if required. You can also collect reading books from the school office whenever you need to. Please let the office know beforehand so we can get them ready for you.
Reading
It is essential that children continue to read every single day. This should be for a minimum of 20 minutes.
Oxford Owl – This resource has an exciting range of carefully levelled books to help children learn to read, and love to read.
If parents and children decide to use this resource, we ask they access phase 5 books. Go to https://www.oxfordowl.co.uk/ and select ‘my class login’. Scroll down to the red box ‘eBook Library for Letters & Sounds’

Resources for questioning your child while they are reading
Maths
Today we are going to focus on counting money in pence. I have uploaded an additional document named 'CHALLENGE'. This is only intended as extension work to challenge and push your learning. You are not required to complete this sheet. The WhiteRose sheet is more than enough. Make sure you watch the video carefully and pause to answer questions on the worksheet.
Please follow the link and complete the worksheet attached to the class blog.
1. Watch the video (either on your own or with your child).
2. Find a calm space where your child can work for about 20-30 minutes.
3. Use the video guidance to support your child as they work through a lesson.
Complete on the sheet (if you have a printer) or write your answers in your home learning book.
