Practice your spellings using the 'Look, Say, Cover, Write, Check' method using your spelling sheets.
If you have time 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.
Year 2
Practice your spellings using the 'Look, Say, Cover, Write, Check' method using your spelling sheets. Remember to use joined up handwriting and think about how it feels to write each word. Sometimes the way the word feels as you write it can help you remember how to spell it.
Log onto WordShark. I have not set any work on Wordshark so just play the games and you will be practicing the words that the computer has set as your target words to practice.
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.

Topic
We have now looked at 4 habitats: Pond, woodland, coastal and urban. For the rest of this week I would like you to think about all of these different habitats. Do you live near any of these? Have you visited any? What did you see living there?
You could:
1) make or draw each of the different habbitats with all the different plants and animals that are found there.
2) write a report.
3) paint a picture
4) create your own habitat outside
5) make a model using lego, junk or other construction equipment
6) investigate why different animals and plants live in different habbitats
Send me pictures of anything that you make, write or do. I will print them out and stick them on the science working wall at school.
