Reading 
We are exploring Handa's Surprise this week, please watch the video of the text and follow the ‘Draw a fruit’ activity, which states the following:

Children can choose one of the fruits Handa carries to her friend and draw it in as much detail as possible, choosing colours carefully and noticing  patterns and textures. Children can peel or cut into the fruit to see the shapes and seeds. Afterwards they can eat it!



The Magical Teaching Box
Today we would like you to focus on page 10, which requires you to order words into alphabetical order.

Matching the analogue clock to the digital time
You have worked really hard learning how to read times to the nearest 5 minutes on analogue clocks. So today we are moving on to introducing digital clocks. Please watch the two teaching videos below which present o'clock and half past times on both clocks, then match the clocks that show the same time.

Your time work is going so well, we are so pleased with the way you have followed the blog over the  past few weeks and have progressed so well in being able to read the time on clocks. Well done! Some of you are also good at completing and sharing your home learning tasks every day, we are so proud of you! Please do stay in touch as we would love to hear from all of Year 2 everyday, thank you.
