Week 6 - Home learning - Year 2

Year One | Huntingdon Primary School

Week 6 - Home learning 

Good morning everyone,
We hope you are well as we enter week 6 of Home learning. 

Just a reminder from last week:
There are now a few ways to get in touch with school. To ensure you receive a speedy 
response, can I ask that you use our Year 1 and 2 mailbox please? The Year 2 team can access this directly. 
If you send a message via Facebook, it may take some time to get to us.

Google Classroom

Thank you for those who joined last week. We now have 47 members of Year Two accessing the Google  Classroom platform. We have 90 children in the year group so are very keen to get this number up. Can we ask our wonderful parent/carer community to help spread the word and mention it to any Year 2 parent/carer you may be in contact with that may not have seen this ,information. 

We are pleased with how Google Classroom is being used and have had really positive feedback from you. We love seeing the work from the child and commenting on this. We also enjoy all the other things going on such as:

Nevaeh sharing photos of her fairy garden 
Korey spreading happiness by writing a positive message to his friends 
Aksanan  presenting his daily weather report 
Oliver sharing all the fun activities he done on VE Day 

If you haven't yet got your password, please email us at
year12@broadford.havering.sch.uk 
with 'Google Classroom' in the subject heading. 
We will then reply within 24hrs with your child's log in 
details.

As always, below is week 6's timetable. Remember, you can chose to follow it or dip in and out as it suits you. Each day there will be a maths, literacy, PE, topic and wellness session.

We cannot stress enough how important reading with your child each day is.
We understand that with home learning trying to fit everything in will be a challenging task in itself.
Please can we ask that if possible, you prioritise reading every day, even if its just for 10 minutes.

Oxford Owl reading website are offering free access to their books online. The children will be familiar with these books as it is already part of our readings scheme. The colours match to their current reading colours. To gain access to these great resources, sign up for FREE at https://www.oxfordowl.co.uk/for-school/oxford-owl-ebook-collectio

Children learning to blend and read simple words such as ‘cat’ or ‘went will be learning Set 1 sounds
and reading Ditty or red books. 
Children learning Set 2 sounds will start to read Green, Purple and Pink.
