Maths answers from yesterday. How did you do?
Maths today
Subtracting fractions from a whole today. Watch carefully. I bet you are feeling very proud with your Fractions understanding. You are getting better and better!
English
Today there is no video because I want you to read the next part of the story! I would like you to practise reading aloud to someone. Read in an entertaining voice and break up longer words into syllables when you read so you do not get stuck. (If you are a bit shaky with some longer words, you need to be reading aloud to an adult every day until you master this) There is a vocabulary task to do before and a little task after - see below!

Year 2 Home Learning Challenges - Tuesday 12th May
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.

Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these.
When children as young as seven or eight years old can engage their family with such a beautiful moment such as this, the school community can only look on with pride.
