Good morning P2,
Hope you all had a wonderful weekend and are ready for lots of fun learning this week.
In class, you will have learned the spelling rule ‘ck’.
For your spelling homework, we would like you to write the spelling rule and common words out two further times. We would also like you to create a sentence of your own. Your sentence should include at least one or more of the spelling rule words. If you would like to add more challenge, why not try to grow your words or think of other words which follow the same spelling rule. This should be returned by Friday for your teacher to mark.
Here is a little video to help remind you of the spelling rule this week.
Please copy the words into your homework jotter, two further times.
- lick
- cluck
- struck
- suck
Common words
- there
- use
- an
- each
Can you try to create a sentence which should include at least one spelling rule word. Here is an example.The clock struck midnight.
Shoot words
cluck – clucked, clucking, cluck
Maths
The maths homework grid should be attached to your homework assignment. Remember to only complete one activity a week. The activities chosen should be different each week. This is to give the children some variety.

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to get in touch with your child’s teacher.

Lost property
Hello, everyone
At the end of each school day, any item of clothing that is found will be placed on the individual child’s cloak peg. Could you please remind your child to check their cloak peg in the morning if they are missing an item of clothing. This will help support the development of your child’s independence skills.
It would be greatly appreciated if you could ensure all items of clothing are labelled to help this process.
Many thanks.
