Year 2 – Friday 20th March
Good Morning Year 2,
How are you today? It was a bit drizzly yesterday so you may not have got outside for fresh air! Maybe today if the weather is better you could try again to do some of the exercises in your garden.
Thank you to everyone who sent in work to show. We are building our art gallery which we will keep adding to so you can still send us work.
Keep trying hard to complete your tasks if you can and ask us any questions. Keep smiling you are doing a great job and we are proud of you all.
You can find a worship here from Mr Applegate.

English – Grammar Hammer
Today’s English task is a Grammer Hammer task just like we would do in school. If you can print it out it would be easier as you can complete the task straight onto the paper. However if you can’t print it, please write it out on a piece of paper, making sure you number the questions and start a new line for each question. We have also attached the answer sheet so that you can mark your own work. All the answers are in red and underlined on this sheet as we were unable to circle them on the computer. Use a polishing pen to do this, but it can be whatever colour pen you have available at home.
To use after you have completed: Grammar Hammer 20.3.20 answers
Maths
Today we will be continuing our learning of time, focusing particularly on telling the time to 5-minute intervals. Attached is a flipchart which will help you to explore this concept before having a go at the challenge sheet that includes a range of activities that you can talk through together.
You may wish to warm up your brains by using the 100s square on the first page of the flipchart to practice counting in 2’s, 5’s and 10’s, starting from different numbers. Please email us at year2@stmarksce.org.uk if you have any questions about this task.
