Year 2
September 2020
Welcome to Year 2
We will continue to update our home learning area of the website with information and activities should your child be unable to attend school.
Please feel to contact Mrs Singh or Mrs Garvey at year2homelearning@willow.doncaster.sch.uk and we will get back to you as soon as possible.
Phonics and Reading
We always start the day with a phonics lesson using Read Write Inc. Please help your child to read their book, encouraging them to identify the sounds in words. It does not matter if your child reads the same book several times as this will help them with their accuracy, fluency and understanding. Please ask your children questions about what they have read to improve their comprehension skills.
Maths
White Rose Maths
Each week we will upload the worksheets that we would like your child to complete. These worksheets will shadow what learning will be taking place in school. There is also a video to accompany each worksheet. Please follow the link below to access these.
It would also be really useful if you could practice maths verbally with your child. This will really help to support their written maths. Some of the things you could practice with them are:
Counting from 0 to 100 and back again
Counting in 2's 5's and 10's
Number bonds of 10 and 20
Simple addition and subtraction equations for them to work out mentally
Days of the week
Months of the year
Money - value of coins and notes
Telling the time to o clock and half past
White Rose Maths Week 1 (week commencing Monday 14th September)
