Class 2 Home Learning

Year 2 children will receive spellings on a Monday to be practised throughout the week in school and at home. Children are asked to investigate the spelling rule by finding different words and to use at least three of these words in sentences. On a Friday they complete a task to assess how well they are recalling and applying the spelling patterns and rules. All children have their own login details to access spelling activities on EdShed.

Year 1 children bring home phonic activities on a Friday to consolidate the learning they have done in their daily Little Wandle sessions.

The children are expected to read their school reading book every day at home with at least three entries in their reading journal each week. Reading takes place in school every day in different forms, but it is really important that your child brings their reading book to school every day please.

Practising multiplication facts is important in Year 2 focusing on the x2, x5 and x10 tables.

All children in Class 2 are encouraged to consolidate number facts using the White Rose 1 Minute Maths App.
