Year 2 spelling rule

Today we began our learning for our new expedition. Please find below links to the overview of what we will be learning in the summer term and extended study menu’s for Y1 and Y2. There is no obligation to complete all of the homework, but past experience has shown that studying themes at home linked to our expedition has helped the children to consolidate the learning they have done in class. Plus they LOVE sharing their new knowledge with you. Don’t forget to send the work into school or email photographs so we can celebrate their achievements.

Here is the QR code to our shared reading text this week, as well as the spellings that we have been learning and practicing. Why not test your children on them to see how they do?
I have been so impressed with the children’s understanding of our new maths unit: repeated addition and multiplication. Here are some homework questions if you want to check their learning from this week. Well done year 2!

We have been practicing spellings with the al and il ending, as well as revisiting the previous spelling rule of le or el. Thanks

In history club this evening we learned about the different colour poppies used to celebrate the sacrifices made in wars.
The red poppy for servicemen and women from the First World War up to the present day.
The purple poppies are worn for the animals who have died in wars.
The black poppy rose was introduced in 2010 to represent the contributions of the African, Black, West Indian, Caribbean, Pacific Islands and Indigenous communities to wars.
White poppies have been worn since 1933 as a symbol of peace and remembrance.
We made a wreath of the red and purple poppies to display in KS1 corridor as a mark of respect.
