Home Learning week commencing 27th April
Hello my brilliant Year 2s! As ever it has been lovely to speak to some of you this week and hear what you have been up to, as well as hearing that you are all happy with your families at home.
There is a bit more on here this week and I have set out the Maths work differently, let me know if this is better. As always feel free to write in the comments section if you are not sure about anything.
Missing you lots,
Miss Drayton

Story writing - Talking to you this week, a lot of you are writing stories at home. Here is some inspiration.
Use this video to do one of the following;
- Write a description of the desolate landscape;
- Write a sequel - what happens when his neighbour finds the box? - perhaps he is less greedy.
- Where do they go once in the box? What is it like in there?
- Create an advertisement - advertising this place as holiday destination.
Grammar skills to practice this week: Capital letters, full stops, exclamation marks and question marks.
Here are some games that you could play;

Maths
Keep up with Mathletics and Timestable Rockstars. I will be following up with those children who haven't logged into Mathletics for a long time when I ring round this week, so if you have access to this please log in and have a go.
This week we are going to concentrate on addition and subtraction.
If this is too tricky, please feel free to change the numbers to smaller numbers or where you are not going to the next or previous 10.
Try and complete them all and create your own additions and subtractions if you finish this quickly.
Reading
Keep reading to an adult or sibling at home. Try and do this three times a week.Visit YouTube for these great reading comprehension tasks. I wonder if you can recognize the voice...

Work together to learn and perform this poem. https://childrens.poetryarchive.org/poem/the-boneyard-rap/ This is a long one so you may want to just do the chorus!
The Boneyard Rap by Wes Magee
This is the rhythm of the boneyard rap,
knuckle bones click and hand bones clap,
finger bones flick and thigh bones slap,
when you’re doing the rhythm of the boneyard rap.
Wooooooooooooooo!
It’s the boneyard rap and it’s a scare.
Give your bones a shake-up if you dare.
Rattle your teeth and waggle your jaw
and let’s do the boneyard rap once more. (do 8 finger snaps)
This is the rhythm of the boneyard rap,
elbow bones clink and backbones snap,
shoulder bones chink and toe bones tap,
when you’re doing the rhythm of the boneyard rap.
Wooooooooooooooo!
It’s the boneyard rap and it’s a scare.
Give your bones a shake-up if you dare.
Rattle your teeth and waggle your jaw
and let’s do the boneyard rap once more. (do 8 finger snaps)
This is the rhythm of the boneyard rap,
ankle bones sock and arm bones flap,
pelvic bones knock and knee bones zap,
when you’re doing the rhythm of the boneyard rap.
Wooooooooooooooo!
It’s the boneyard rap and it’s a scare.
Give your bones a shake-up if you dare.
Rattle your teeth and waggle your jaw
and let’s do the boneyard rap once more. (do 8 finger snaps)
Yeah!
