Year 2 – Tuesday’s Home Learning

Year 2 Home learning for Tuesday 31st March

Subject focus What we need to learn: How we might learn it:
English  Reading To express likes and dislikes about books.

Think about your book from yesterday and write a book review. 

Why did you choose it? What do you like about it? Why would you recommend it to others? 

Think about who else in your class would like this book and why?

Here some example layouts or make your own. 

 

Writing To write a range of interesting sentences using expanded noun phrases.

Look at your list of expanded noun phrases (ENP) from yesterday. 

Write at least 5 sentences using your ENP. Use a range of coordinate (and, but, so) and subordinate (because, that, if, when) clauses to extend your sentences. 

Challenge – Can you use a range of sentence types to describe the video. Can you write an exclamation sentence?  

Maths To reinforce knowledge of the relationship between multiplication and division.

You will need – a pencil and some paper.

Use these groups of three numbers to write out two multiplication and two division calculations. Remember, only use the three numbers each time.

Example – 2, 3, 6 – 1) 2 x 3 = 6   2) 3 x 2 = 6 3) 6 ÷ 3 = 2   4) 6 ÷ 2 = 3

a) 2, 5, 10   b) 3, 4, 12 c) 4, 5, 20   d) 3, 5, 15 e) 5, 6, 30 f) 2, 7, 14

Remember the golden rules!

division – the biggest number always goes first

multiplication – the biggest number always comes last
