Spellings – double the consonant before adding ing to words that have a short vowel follows by a consonant at the end (like stop=stopping, nod=nodding).

Try these and put into sentences:

Trap, chop, beg, map, rub

English – look at the Year 2 common exception words. Can you spot any patterns between some of the words? Can you group words that sound the same? How many different ways could you group the words?

Maths – bean bag bucket activity (see photo below).
