Year 2 – Tuesday’s Home Learning

Year 2 Home learning for Tuesday 23nd June

Subject focus		What we need to learn:	How we might learn it:
English	Reading	To read accurately by blending the sounds. To answer questions about what I have read.	Read the ‘The Day of the Circus’ comprehension below. Try and read it as independently as you can. You can read it to a grown up but try and sound out the words on your own. Answer the questions after you have read it and then check your answers.
English	Writing	Can I write for a different purpose?	Today we are going to write an application form to join the circus. Yesterday you thought about what skills you would need and what skills you have. Which job do you think you would enjoy most in the circus? Why? Would you like to work with any of the animals? Use these headings to help you to write an application: Full name: Date of birth: Age: Address: Job I am applying for: Why I think I would be good at this job: Interesting fact about me:
Maths		To use and apply Mathematical knowledge in real life situations.	The circus is coming to town! Today your challenge is to calculate ticket price totals for your trip to the circus. Below you will see a circus price list. There are some questions below. There is no need to print anything unless you want to. On paper, you can write the question number – write out the calculation – work out and write the answer.
Other:		To increase balance and coordination	Today we are going to use the juggling balls we made yesterday to see how far we can progress through the beginning steps of learning to juggle. Watch this clip of step by step instructions of how to juggle. Which step can you get to? Remember to make sure you are in good space to practise your skills. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kCt1bmSASCI
