Home learning 7th February 2025

We've had another busy week in Year 2 and we are enjoying finding out Lunar New Year. 

In class we have also been reading The Smartest Giant which will be on at Fareham Live in March. If you fancy taking a trip perhaps you might like to take a look at the following link.

Smartest Giant

Here are your home learning activities for this week...

Reading

As always, please read every day. This might be your reading book from school or a book from home. Don't forget, you can also log on to bug club phonics.

Spelling

Here are the common exception words we would like you to practise this week...

city

fancy

cycle

circle

face

Remember the rule we learnt about the letter c...

If the vowel after the C is A, O, or U, the C has a hard sound. If the vowel after the C is E, I, or Y, its sound is soft.

You can practise these however you like. Look back at our previous home learning days for ideas such as bubble writing, rainbow writing or fancy letters.

Maths

This week we have been learning about 2D and 3D shapes.

Have a look below and see if you can work out the names of these 3D shapes...

(A tetrahedron is the same as a triangular based pyramid!!!)

Here are some more 3D shape activities for you to try:

Can you guess the 3D shape?

This week's task...

Next week in Art, we are learning about printing and collage.

There are some videos here showing some of the techniques we are going to use in class. Why not have a try at some printing or collage at home? Don't forget to send us a photo of the pictures you make!
