Dear Parents,

This weeks homework is for Literacy- we have given the children a comprehension task. Please instruct the children that they need to read the text carefully and then attempt to answer the questions. They do not need to re-write the questions but on the next page they have to answer the questions in full sentences. For example if they had the question:

Why was the boy sad?

Their answer should be drawn from the text:

The boy was sad because he lost his balloon.

If the children do get stuck with any of the question encourage them to re-read the text.

Thank you for your support and have a lovely weekend!

Dear Parents,

The children's sentences were great this week. We have been teaching them to use conjunctions during literacy. So could you please try to encourage this at home also. They will become more confident if they're are using it at school and home.

Conjunctions

• and
• because
• so
• but
• or

Thank you for your hard work.

Dear Parents,

Year 2 got amazing scores in their spelling test today. We are very proud of them. Thank you for all your hard work. We look forward to moving many children up to the next amount of spellings next week. Please feel free to look at the other words on the spelling list, as they become more difficult quite quickly!

Kind regards

Dear Parents,

This weeks homework can be accessed through 'My Maths' on the 15.9.17. Please be aware that when partitioning a number, we no longer use the vocabulary 'units'. The children are aware of this and now call it 'ones'.

Kind regards

Year 2 Team

Welcome back to school! The children are settling in well to life in Year Two and are working hard. They are a great class!
