Home learning Tasks Tuesday 31st March
Good morning year 2!
Hope you are all doing well and still working hard. Today I’m going to have a go at baking some cookies whilst you do your tasks. I can enjoy them this afternoon when I take a look at your work and comments. Enjoy your home learning today and keep smiling!
Miss Battams 🙂
Here are today’s learning activities:
English
Reading – Complete the comprehension task “Our Solar System” in your white English comprehension book. Remember to have a go yourself first before asking for help. You can do this! 🙂
Writing – Would you like to explore the Solar System? Can you write a piece to explain why you would or wouldn’t like to go into space. Your writing should have punctuation, finger spaces and you should try to use the conjunctions because, but, so that, to extend your writing and explain your answers. Remember it should be written in full sentences.
Sounds-Write Phonics
Review – Read these Year 2 words: path, bath, parents, wild, hold
Read the words: option, caution, position
Write the words: location, operation, competition
Dictation: Get somebody to read out loud the following sentence and have a go at writing it using your phonic sounds and spellings to help you.
There was a secret operation at an unknown location. You must use caution to find the position.
