• Homework will consist of a weekly spelling task on Spelling Frame, a reading task and a maths task. 
• All children have login details for Spelling Frame and Active Learn Maths at the front of their homework books.
• Homework supports our learning in school and must be completed so that children in Year Two are not at a disadvantage.
• Additionally, children can access Times Table Rock Stars at home, this will help them learn their times tables in a fun way and can battle with their friends to earn coins!

Reading

Reading every night at home is vital for learning in Year Two. Children who read four times a week at home achieve 'Fab 4'' and will receive a treat.

Reading books and book bags need to be brought into school every day.

Our Learning in Action

We have been SUPER busy this past term and thanks to the sunshine, we have been lucky to be able to learn outside the classroom as much as possible. Here are some snippets of what we have been up to; 

• We visited two different biomes (St Bees and Buttermere) and compared the land use at both of these sites for our Geography.
• STEAM event at West Lakes Academy. 
• Speaking and listening in English - freeze frames and conscience alley.
• Sewing our own pouches.
