Hello everyone, I hope you have had an enjoyable weekend. We are raring to go this week with another busy week of learning in Primary 2.
Reading homework
Our reading homework for this week is:
Book Bandits – Jay and Sniffer – The Bike Race
Page Pirates – Shaun the Sheep – You are my Mum
Word Wizards – Rat and Cat in The Hat Trick
Sound stars – please check your child’s bag for homework
To help build fluency with reading, the book should ideally be read each night of the week. If anyone has issues accessing bug club at home please let me know and I will send home paper copies of books where I can and provide your child the opportunity to complete the bugs within the books in class.
Spelling homework
This week our class is consolidating our recent learning of the sounds ow (as in snow), ea (as in leaf) and ay. I have attached the grid from which your child can choose activities to practice these sounds. Many of these activities can be done using the magnetic boards the children were given last year. If you would to provide your child with further challenge, ask them to make other words they can think of using the ow sound.
Numeracy homework
In class we are continuing to work on addition to 20. I have assigned all of the children a numeracy game on bug club. There are three levels to this game. The children may benefit from having something with them they can count to help find the answers. As with reading, the more the children practise these calculations the better their fluency and recall will become.
The children can get some more practise using top marks on the link below.
