Monday 15th June - Home Learning

Good morning Year 2,

We hope you have had a wonderful weekend. Please feel free to share what you have been up to with us, as we love to hear from you all. This weekend I have enjoyed having a picnic in my parents garden and walking. 

Please look carefully at today's learning tasks, because we have made some changes since the weekly plan was shared on Friday. 

Today's Learning Tasks:

Warm up for learning

The Learning Warm-Up - Matthew Reynolds - Medium
Gymnastics Challenge
This is a PE resource created by Ashton Park. There are 5 levels from 'Rookie' to Platinum and all of these can be practised and performed in a small space either in or outside, with no equipment. You can add the option to put together some 'freestyle' sequences as well. An introduction to this is on this link

Fractions

Select Lesson 6: to identify unit fractions of quantity.

You may wish to have objects with you such as pencils, beads or pieces of pasta to help solve some of the quiz questions.




Changes
Discuss the questions below with someone in your family:
·       What do you think made us grow?

Write down your responses to the questions and share them with us.



We look forward to hearing from you whether it is to share weekend news, show us photos of your learning or to ask questions. Have a good day.

Daily Reflection
Good afternoon Year 2. We hope those of you we have not heard from are okay. We are so pleased to see some of you are working hard to develop your handwriting whilst learning at home. Thank you for sharing what you would like to do when you are older, it is so good for us to have dreams to work towards achieving. Have a good evening and make sure you have a good nights sleep ready for learning tomorrow. From Mrs Leaker
