Hello Year 2!

It was so lovely to see all your lovely, smiling faces in the TEAMS meetings last week!  You are all so good at muting your microphones and taking it in turns to speak, we are so impressed!

Today’s work is for Monday, 8th February. When completing tasks, you can either do so electronically (via Microsoft PowerPoint or Word) or by recording work on separate sheets of paper or a notepad.

Please remember both TEAMs assignments must be completed each week and submitted for feedback. Use theemail year2@abbeyroadprimary.co.uk to contact the Year 2 Team at any time and we get back to you the next working day.

Don’t forget that tomorrow (9.2.21) there will be a book drop off.

GUIDED READING

For today’s Guided Reading we would like you to continue listening to the story of George’s Marvellous Medicine.  Mrs Horton has read up to The Brown Hen with you and would like you to continue the story up to the chapter, Marvellous Medicine Number 73.  To do this, click on this link and start the video from 39:54 and stop at 1:02, as you will listen to the last part on Tuesday.  On Tuesday, you will be completing the rest of your book review, so whilst you are listening to the story today, think about how you would answer the question, ‘What was your favourite part of the story and why?’.  Think about how many stars out of five you would give it.
