Wednesday 3rd June - Home Learning

Good morning Year 2,

Today is set to be a much cooler and it may possibly be a drizzly day. Hopefully the warm sunshine will come back soon.

Interesting fact: China manufactures 70% of the world's toys.

Today's Learning Tasks:

Get ready for learning by selecting a Cosmic Kids class on YouTube.

Reading 

Please spend 10 minutes reading and respond to the appropriate question below.

Fiction text - predict what you think is going to happen next. Why do you think this?

Non-fiction text - what kind of text is this? How do you know?

The Elves and the Shoemaker

We would like you to use yesterday’s story mountain plan to write your story about the helpful elves. We are looking forward to seeing plenty of description and cursive handwriting. Some children wrote their stories yesterday which are on yesterday's blog, please look at these as they are really good examples of what we would like you to create.

Rotation
This week is our final week learning about shapes using the series of lessons created by Oak National Academy. Each lesson contains quizzes and an online teaching lesson.
Choose 'Lesson 13: To identify how patterns have been created through rotation'.

RE

This term we are focusing on sacraments in RE. Today we would like you to focus on the question - What is a sacrament? To find out the answer to this please watch the video clip and then take part in the quiz. To do the quiz pause the video after each question, in order to create time to write down what you think the answer will be. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LatLsVNR0T0 (Catholic Seven Sacraments Lesson by Margaret Shaw)

Daily Reflection
It has been such a good day in our Year 2 home learning group! We are so proud of how you are progressing in applying your knowledge of rotation and the care you are taking to present your work neatly. To top this off we have heard from so many of you today, we are so grateful as we love to know how you are all doing. Thank you for making today such a good day.
