    • Homework

    • Spellings 

    Children will learn spelling rules and Y1 / 2 words which are listed in the National Curriculum. Please support your child to hear and pinch the sounds on their fingers. You can also use the look, say, cover, write, check method for learning the spellings. Children should practice learning their weekly spellings and their meaning at home to reinforce class learning. We recommend 5 minutes each day to help secure the new knowledge. Spellings will be tested each week.

    • Maths fluency

    Children should practise fluency and arithmetic activities for 5 minutes daily using a number of programmes including Times Tables Rock Stars, Numbots and White Rose1-minute maths (free app 1-minute maths app | White Rose Education). Activities will be set on TT Rock stars to complete weekly. https://ttrockstars.com/

    At the end of Year 2, children should be able to fluently recall  the 10, 5 and 2 times tables. 

     

    • Reading

    We love stories! A love of reading is encouraged at school through the texts we teach and the lovely stories we share. It is a joy to hear your child talk so enthusiastically about a book, comic, newspaper, graphic novel, encyclopedia or the Bible! Children should read at least 5 times weekly for 10 minutes to an adult at home and record this in their reading diary.

     

    • Spring 2 Home Learning Task    This half term we would like you to choose a book / story you love to share at home and make a Fact Sheet about the main character/person/animal in that book. 

    Your Fact Sheet should include the headings: Who am I? What am I? Where am I from?  What am I known for? You might want to include a picture of the character/person/animal on your Fact Sheet too! 

    Please can you complete your Fact Sheet on one side of A4 paper so we can display it in the classroom. 

    Please support your child to spell all words correctly and to try their very best with their handwriting and sentence punctuation. We are working on always remembering capital letters at the beginning of sentences and full stops at the end. 

    Thank you so much for your continued support. We have been really impressed with the tasks completed at home so far this year, and are so proud to display them in our classroom. 

    If you need any support with this half term's Home Learning Task please ask Mrs Hudson.
