Year 2 – Thursday’s Home Learning

Year 2 Home learning for Thursday 2nd July – Sport Theme

Subject focus What we need to learn: How we might learn it:
English  Reading To use my reading skills to solve problems and answer questions.

Today we should finally solve the reading mystery! We will be solving the last clue to find out the last piece of information about the person who stole the missing medal. Put it with all the other information you have gathered this week and solve the mystery of who took the medal! 

Good luck! Don’t forget to tell your teacher who it was.

Writing To write for a different purpose. 

Today is our final day thinking about our favourite sport. We would like you to research a famous sports person and present some information about them. This could be a Powerpoint, typed into a word document, a handmade leaflet or a poster. You should choose.

We look forward to seeing all of your outcomes. If it is on the computer, ask your grown up to send it to us! 

Here are some headings to help you:

Early Life

Why are they famous?

Sporting Achievements

Fun Facts
Interesting Information

Maths To use and apply knowledge of number and logic. Below you will find some Maths practice questions. Some are calculations (sums), others are problems to solve. Do the ones you are confident with first, leave the harder ones until last. Don’t forget to use strategies like column method, blank number line, jottings, arrays, drawing Dienes or mental knowledge. Check your work. Always ask yourself – Does my answer make sense?
Other:  To identify the meaning of the symbols associated with the olympics. 

Rewatch the video from yesterday

Today we are going to think of the symbols of the olympics.

Draw each symbol that is associated with the olympics and a short explanation of what those symbols represent. For example:


 Use the video to help you with the meaning of these symbols. You may also want to think about the medals or other symbols associated with the olympics.  

Remember to email your child’s class teacher to let them know how you’ve got on. We’d love to see examples of what you’ve been up to.
