Good Morning

Year 2 we have made it to the end of our first full week of home learning and you have all done such a wonderful job, we are so impressed with the dedication you have shown to your learning. We are well on our way to reaching our target of 4000 dojo points and we currently have 869 points. It would be amazing to reach 1000 points by the end of the day so keep the working coming in.

Maths

Yesterday in Maths we were learning about arrays and how they help us to answer those tricky multiplication questions and because you all did so well we thought that we would put your new skill to the test. Today you will be answering a range of multiplication question in your Maths Workout book on pages 11 – 13. There will be some missing number questions, repeated addition questions and number lines too. We will explain all of this to you and provide examples on our online lesson at 9:55.

English

During our online English lesson at 11:35 we will be looking at an example of an instruction text and together we will highlight the features such as imperative verbs, time connectives and command sentences. We are also going to learn about the layout of instructional writing and what features we must use when we write a set of instructions.

Once we have looked at an example together we would like you to create your very own set of instructions, these instructions can be about how to play a game, how to make a cake or how to wash your hands. You need to choose something that you know how to do so have a little think before you start writing your instructions. 

Please make sure that you use the instructions checklist below to double check that you have used all the features in your writing.

Did I

Use a title?

Include a list of what is needed?

Put the steps in order?

Use bullet points or number for each step?

Use bossy imperative verbs?

You can use the time connectives and bossy verbs sheets below to help you with your writing.

It’s that time of the week again, GOLDEN TIME! You’ve all worked incredibly hard this week so now it’s time for a treat.
