Good morning Year 2!
I hope that you enjoyed reading a little of Horrid Henry yesterday and are looking forward to today’s instalment - it’s a good one! Are you ready for a challenge in maths too?
Phonics
I understand that the phonics videos are now repeating themselves because all of the sounds have been taught. If you feel that revisiting these sounds is worthwhile for your child, please do keep accessing the videos using the link below:
Reading
Continue reading and quizzing on books using the Accelerated Reading and Epic Reading resources. Help can be found in the ‘How to help your child’ section of my page if you need it.
Remember, you should be reading for at least half an hour each day. Also try to read both a range of fiction and non-fiction books.
It also isn’t too late to sign up for the Epic Reading resource. If you would like access to a huge range of books, some with quizzes, please send an email to l.woodend@ourladystarofthesea.lancs.sch.uk. This will enable me to send you an invite to create an account.

Day 2
Read together the opening extract from Horrid Henry’s Birthday Party from the collection Fearsome Four by clicking the front cover opposite.
Discuss – How is Henry feeling about his birthday? How are his Mum and Dad feeling about his birthday? Why are they feeling differently to Henry?
Support by watching the opening of the animated version of the same story up to 3:01 mins where Henry hands out his invitations.
