Summer Term Week 3

Weekly Maths Tasks 

Please click on the link below to access this week's daily maths activities. 



(Please ensure you click on the Summer Term Week 1 (w/c 20 April) 
activity. These links can be temperamental if they do not work just search for White Rose Maths, Home Learning and then either Year 2 or Year 3)

Maths facts: 
Remember to practise your times tables on TT Rockstars - I would love to post more names for this on the blog this week! Also work on other maths facts such as number bonds on Hit the Button.


Weekly English Tasks (plus daily reading)  



Here is a reminder of the link for your two week writing task. I hope you are enjoying this challenge. Remember to take time to check that each activity is done to the best of your ability before moving on to the next one. There is absolutely no rush!

Reading Comprehension There are 3 levels of comprehension, challenge yourself!

Spellings: 

The 'or' sound spelt ‘a’ before ‘l’ and ‘ll’
Use the following words: call, tall, ball, walk, talk, always
See if your child can think of some words for each of these spellings and write them down.
Tell your child to look at the tricky ones where they can’t hear the ‘l’. What can they do to help them remember these?
Use some of the strategies worked on in class to help you: pyramid words, drawing an image around the word, drawing boxes around each letter to show the shape, look say cover write check etc. Try rainbow writing: write each letter in a different colour or write the whole word in one colour and overlay this in further colours.

Weekly Wider Curriculum Tasks

History - VE Day This week, as we have a bank holiday on Friday, I would like you to learn about VE Day. What is it? Why are we celebrating it's 75th anniversary this week? You might even notice The Queen and her family in the information you learn too. If you click on the link above there are also a number of extra art, music, PSHE or DT activities you can do linked to VE day if you want.

If you fancy learning even more about VE Day, try these links for some fun activities:


Computing -
On offer this week, and next, instead of Science, is an invitation for parents to sign up for a FREE TWO WEEK TRIAL to PURPLE MASH - a computing and digital skills on-line space for creative learning. Purple Mash parent sign-up Once logged on it is the 2code icon we would like you to click on and work on your coding skills. Start with chimp level and see how you get on. We will leave this task on for 2 weeks so it allows you to make full use of your 14 day free trial. (Don't worry there are lots of help videos along the way if you get stuck).

PE - School Games Virtual Challenge North Yorkshire Sports have set some challenges for children to do each week. Have a look and choose 1 or 2 to have a go at. I think you can even send a video to them showing how many you've done if you've not missed the deadline.

Picture News - 
Story: The toy world has a new craze – llamas!
Question:   What makes some toys more popular than others?

🌟Mrs Burton's Ongoing Project - Who is your hero?
When I was in primary school I did a project all about my hero. It took me weeks! I learned lots of facts, made a booklet, drew and cut out pictures, and I can still remember facts about Gary Winston Lineker now! So it's your turn, choose someone who you admire, learn all about them, then show what you know in whatever way you want e.g scrapbook, PowerPoint, poster. This should be a project you work on over the next few weeks rather than complete in 1 session.
