Well we have made it to the end of another week for home learning. Well done Year 2 and thank you to your families for their continued support. One Week to go!
Spelling: We are continuing to look at the spelling pattern ‘c’ that makes the ‘s’ sound when it comes before ‘i, e and y’. Today we would like your help again. It seems I have got in a muddle and need help following this spelling pattern. Can you find the correct spelling for each word and then either write them on your own paper or colour the square that the correct spelling is in. Then we would like you to ask an adult to read out loud some sentences for you while you write them (no peeping). Remember you need to think about using this weeks spelling pattern correctly as well as including capital letters and full stops. You can then read the sentences yourself and correct any mistakes if need.
Mathematics: Today we are moving on to division. Division is the same as sharing into equal groups. There are lots of questions with pictures asking you to share them into equal groups. You might want to use your own counters such as pasta, toys, beads etc to help you work out each question and checked you have shared them equally. You can watch the video below for further support.
English: Today we would like you to finish re-writing the story of Th Very Hungry Caterpillar. Use the planning sheet to help you first. We are looking at using improved adjectives , verbs and adverbs again today. The video below shows you how to plan and share ideas for vocabulary choices, and then how to use the plan for your writing. Remember your planning sheet has each section you are improving included to also help.
Computing: We are looking at Algorithms today. An algorithm is just like giving instructions to make something work. You use algorithms all the time when you bake or follow instructions for games etc. In computing algorithms are used to make (give instructions) your games work and characters move around. We would like you to think of instructions (an algorithm) to direct someone in your family from one place in a room to another. EG from the fridge to the oven or from the backdoor to your shed. It is up to you where you direct your family member but remember they can only move when you tell them and they can only follow your direct instructions. A top tip- you might want to walk through your instructions first to check they work.
