Y2 Maths 
Let's use what we learnt about the minute hand yesterday to help the children in the book tell the time.

What time does this clock say? Can you write it as a digital clock?
Well the hour hand is showing that it is past 7.
The minute hand is showing 10 minutes past.
So it must be 10 minutes past 7.
On a digital clock that would look like
7:10
The pages in your Maths No Problem book day are 129 and 130. You need to write the digital time not words. So for 20 minutes past 6 you can write 6:20.
Maths Super Challenge
Phonics/Spelling 
Y1 log onto Phonicsplay or https://new.phonicsplay.co.uk/ . Click on 'phase 5' then scroll down to Investigating Alternative Spellings /oa/ . Choose the word sort game. Can you remember all the different spellings for the /oa/ sound? What is is the best bet?
Y1 and Y2 practice your spellings using the 'Look, Say, Cover, Write, Check' method on your spelling sheets then log onto WordShark. I have set this weeks spellings so you need click on the 'My Set Work' tab at the top of the screen. Practice spelling for 10 mins. If you are having trouble using Wordshark then choose 2 of your spelling words. Look at them then without looking again write a sentence using those words. Check - did you spell them correctly?
Reading 
Y1 & Y2 Read a few pages from your school book. Then quiet reading for 20 mins - you can carry on reading your school book, or choose a book you have at home. Think about a quiet place you could go to read. Maybe outside?
Topic 
What is a plant? How do you know if a plant is alive? What do plants need to stay alive? Is it the same as animals? How do you make sure that the plants in your house or garden stay healthy and keep growing?
Lots of questions for you to think about and investigate this week.
