Year 2 – Thursday’s Home Learning

Year 2 Home learning for Thursday 30th April

Subject focus What we need to learn: How we might learn it:
English  Reading To find, copy and read aloud sentences that contain exclamation or question marks.

After your daily reading;

Choose a book.

Look through the book for sentences that end with exclamation marks, or question marks, e.g.;

What an amazing tree that is!

How many trees are there in Stride Avenue?

1) Copy out four sentences – try to get two of each, if you can – don’t show these to anyone else!

2) Read them to a grown up – remember to try to read with expression.

3) Ask the grown ups if they can identify the sentences correctly. Have you read them an exclamation, or a question?.

Writing To use writing frame 3 to write detailed sentences.

Use your final unused planner to write about the third place that you plan to visit (hopefully soon!).

Can you make today’s work the best of the week?

Remember, when you have finished – read your work aloud to yourself (or a grown up). Check, edit, and improve it if you need to.

If you have time, draw and colour a picture of the place you want to visit.

Maths

To recognise the place value of each digit of a 2 digit number.

To compare numbers using < > and = signs.

Today we are writing some clues for a game of ‘Guess my Number.’ 

You will need to write 5 clues to describe your number. Here are some ideas to help you but you can think of some of your own too if you would like: 

(The line is where a number clue will go) 

  1. It is an odd / even number.
  2. It is greater than (>) ____
  3. It is less than (<) ____
  4. It is in the ___ times tables. (A multiple of __) 
  5. It has ____ tens.
  6. It has ____ units.

      My number is_____!

Test someone in your house, can they guess your numbers from your clues? 

Challenge: Write another set of clues for a new number, think of some clues of your own.

Can you create a picture of anything that you like. You can draw, paint, ollage it is entirely up to you! 

There are some really good videos on youtube. Here is one channel that might have some tips for you. https://www.youtube.com/user/ArtforKidsHub

So get creative! Your teachers will love to see your amazing creations.
