Morning Year 2, 

 

I hope you have had a lovely long weekend and managed to get some fresh air. We had some lovely weather. 

 

How amazing was the VE Day (and for that matter, all) of the work that you sent me last week. I was very impressed. 

 

Have a great week!

• Please watch the video to support your understanding.
• Try the sheet below.
• Check your work against the answers (attached below).

 

Remember, you can either print it, write the answers out or discuss them with a family member.

 

 

CHALLENGE

If your child finds the measures sheet fairly easy I have also attached an additional problem solving activity. As that suggests the questions are more tricky, take time and are to extend learning further. They get more difficult as you work through them. The answers are also provided to support you to review the work.

 

The main focus is the White Rose Hub sheet as this continues our learning in class. 

 

                                                LITERACY

 

Using the book Cyril and Pat you will learn about answering questions using the text, inferring what characters might say to each other and explaining what words mean.

This lesson includes:

• three activities

Cyril and Pat

This book is about Cyril, the only squirrel in Lake Park, who is very lonely. One day he meets Pat – Pat is big and grey, and Cyril mistakes him for another squirrel! They become great friends and the two have lots of adventures and fun together - Cyril is so pleased he's made a friend. But everyone else thinks that Cyril and Pat simply cannot be friends, and they soon reveal why: Pat is actually a rat!

Watch TV presenter Naomi Wilkinson read an extract from Cyril and Pat .

Think about the following questions.

• Who are the two main characters?

• Where are they?

• What happens?

 

 

Watch the videos and complete the activities.
