Hi Year Two,

Mrs Davies-Cox, Mrs Ward and Miss Hunt are missing you all so much!

We love having a chat with you on the phone and seeing your hard work and photographs on HWB and MyMaths.  We are so proud of you all for working so hard! We know it is tricky but keep trying your hardest to complete as much work as you can ☺ 

Keep trying your best and remember to present your work just like you would in class – neatly and with your best handwriting. We can’t wait to see all the work you have been doing in your exercise books. 

We have some more activities for you for this week which will focus on teaching you to stay safe online and more activities to keep you fit and healthy. 

If you have any problems accessing the work then please email us on  maesycoedprimary82@gmail.com 

Please remember to save your work when you are using HWB. If we comment on a piece of work you are able to reply to us when you click on the speech bubble. We love hearing back from you!

We are all looking forward to seeing you soon.

Stay safe and healthy,

Mrs Davies – Cox, Mrs Ward and Miss Hunt

Homework for Year Two

Hello year two, we hope you have all enjoyed the Easter holidays and have been able to enjoy some of the lovely sunshine we have had. We are missing you lots and are hoping that we can all be together again soon. Until then, we will be setting you some homework to do each day.

Please use the same rules that we follow in class. Take your time to read the homework carefully. Remember to write or draw your work neatly in your book. Always use the think it, say it, write it, read it back rule to make sure you have not missed anything out or made any mistakes. If using the computer, save your work using a sensible name. Always try your best.

In the homework grid are two activities for you to try to complete each day. Most are tasks that you can finish the same day. However, there are a few that either follow on to the next day, or to the next week.

You have all been given your HWB and My Maths user names and passwords, but if you are having difficulty please e-mail us on         maesycoedprimary82@gmail.com

Sometimes you will record your work in the book we provided, or on HWB using Jit 5. Please remember to save your work.

We would also like you to try to do the ‘Daily Five’ activities if possible. These are reading, maths practise, keep fit, being creative and celebrating something you have done well.
