Year 2 Home Practice Friday 15th July 2022

Date: 15th Jul 2022 @ 2:38pm

Another great week in Year 2, the children had so much fun at the Tough Kidder event. Thank you for sending in sponsorship money for that. The firepit will be a fantastic addition to our Forest School resources. We made fruit faces in D.T and the children were so creative. The best part was eating all the delicious fruit, pomegranate was a real favourite!

Reading

In Year 2, children should read for at least 15 minutes every night and talk about what they have just read. This will help with understanding the text and learning new words.

Please try to continue to read throughout the holiday. There are some great reading challenges at the local library, so plenty of opportunities to borrow books, or try some of the books on the Oxford Owl link below.

Reading books will be collected in on Monday.

Reading resources:

Oxford Owl – This resource has an exciting range of carefully levelled books to help children learn to read and really enjoy it.

Please access phase 5 books. Go to https://www.oxfordowl.co.uk/ and select ‘my class login’. Scroll down to the ‘eBook Library for Letters & Sounds’. You could also explore the rest of the site and read books from the Oxford Owl eBook library or listen to audio books.

In addition to this, reading a good bed time story to your child is so worthwhile and really helps towards a lifelong love of reading.

There will be no spelling test next Friday.

You will have a times table challenge on Sumdog to complete by next Friday.

Please could you remember to send a small cardboard box into school for our D.T project next week. 

Also, the children will be bringing their school exercise books home next Thursday. Please could you send a bag for life (carrier bag) for them to bring them home in.

Have a great weekend.

Year 2 Team.
