Reading

Read the ‘Hide and Seek’ text and answer the questions in your home learning book.

You can also use the text as ‘reading fluency’. We do this every day at school, reading the same text each day. The aim is to develop fluency and expression when reading. Each day we would focus on a different aspect of the text eg vocabulary (what do the words mean), punctuation (taking note of commas, full stops) and tricky spellings. By the end of year 2, children are expected to be reading approximately 90 words per minute.

Topic : Geography

Watch and sing along with the continents song – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K6DSMZ8b3LE

Write a list of all the continents. Remember that proper nouns begin with a capital letter (names of continents).

If you have a globe or atlas, you could try to find them on there too.
