YEAR 2 NEWSLETTERs AND HOME LEARNING
Please see our Term 2 newsletter and home learning documents below.
In Year 2, we encourage children to complete some home learning to help consolidate their learning from school at home,
Children who complete tasks from the optional home learning chart will receive house points for each piece they bring in!
Reading & Phonics
It is really important for children to read regularly at home. It's also great practice for children to listen to stories being read to them. Try to read for a few minutes every day and record it in your child's reading record. If your child has 5 reading entry's in a week, they will be entered into our school reading raffle which is drawn every half term! They could win the opportunity to choose a book of their own to the value of £10.
Please see the link below to the Little Wandle Letters and Sounds parent help page for tips on how to help your child with phonics at home.

Numbots & Times Table Rockstars
Children in year 2 are expected to be confident when recalling the 2, 5 and 10 timestables.
Using apps such as Numbots and TT Rocks will give children an opportunity to practice their number bonds and timestables at home in a fun, interactive way!
