Happy new week, Year 2!

I hope you’ve all had a wonderful week last week and managed to find some enjoyment even though the weather wasn’t quite so nice as it has been recently. Thank you once again for all your incredible hard work at home and for sending me your wonderful work through to take a look at. It’s fantastic to see just how hard you’re working and parents, I cannot thank you enough for keeping normality going throughout this unusual last 7 weeks. You are truly superstars!

I apologise for the slightly late update of this week’s home learning project but I found a rather strange, fascinating and alarming new structure underneath the roof of my shed. Take a look at the picture below and see if you can find out what it might be! (Parents I have the issue at hand and have rather bravely called a professional in!)

This week’s home learning journey is based upon food. There are plenty of activities for you to work from. Once again, please try to do at least one of each activity every day. I know that Year 2 children often require lots of support but some of the activities can be done alone so you can continue working from home!

Pie Corbett’s AMAZING Talk for Writing Activities have now released a second unit of work to develop Year 2’s reading and writing skills. It is all based around the traditional tale of the Elves and the Shoemaker. Please use the below resource. This resource should last 2 weeks(so do 1 part per day) and will lead to an independent piece of writing.

Again, I highly recommend the daily resources from Oak National Academy and the White Rose Home Learning Materials. We are currently doing what is labelled ‘Summer Term - Week 1 (W/C 20 April).IMPORTANT NOTICE - White Rose Home Learning are limiting the free resources available from the site, as far as I am aware, you can still access these at the moment but they are only making the teaching videos accessible to parents. Therefore, please download the daily worksheets from this blog page which I will add with the other resources we have on here for Year 2. The videos are STILL available from the Year 2 page so please continue to access them.
