Elm (Yr2)

Week Beginning 25.05.20 

This week is half term and we hope that you have a chance to relax.  Here are some ideas for the week but there is no formal work set. 

Accessing Work

Some of you have said it is hard to access the work we are posting on a small screen, such as a phone.  If this is the case then red button on the BBC have daily lessons which you can access on your TV so if this helps, please work from there.

Monday 20th April

On today's BBC red button you can see some information about the first moon landing.  At the end of the programme there is a cartoon about the moon landing your child may enjoy.  This is especially useful if you don't have access to a laptop/tablet etc.  There is also a maths warm up and a book club section.  

Work for week commencing 6th April and 13th April

We hope everyone is well and happy and still enjoying lovely family time.  Here is the work for the next two weeks.  Bear in mind these are holiday weeks...although all the days seem much the same at the moment.  Take some time out to relax, though.  We will begin learning some new skills after the holidays.  If your child finds learning tricky it is more useful to do programmes like Teach Your Monster to Read to help phonics and reading skills and basic maths skills like counting and addition and subtraction up to 20.  If your child flies through the work given, they can extend their writing by using an online thesaurus and maths by challenging themselves to beat scores on Numbots and TTRockstars.  They could also keep a diary of events over the next few weeks....it is a time we will all look back on over coming years and a reminder of the times would be interesting.

Stay safe, all.
