Maple Class Home Learning for Wednesday 6th May 2020
Spellings – when an action word ends with a consonant followed by a ‘y’, change the ‘y’ to an i before adding es (like empty=empties, copy=copies).
Try these and put into sentences:
Hurry, fly, worry, dirty, apply
English – go on a Year 2 common exception word list hunt. How many of these words can you find at home? Can you find them in books? On labels? Ask someone else to write some of the words down and hide them for you, can you find them all?
Maths – Snakes and ladders puzzle (see photo below).
Theme – this week we will be learning all about some of the culture, traditions and language in Japan. Below is a suggested list of activities to choose from, maybe pick one a day to explore.
- which language do they speak in Japan?
- Can you learn to say “hello”, “goodbye” and “thank you” in Japanese?
- Can you count to 10 in Japanese?
- Can you explore Japanese writing?
- Can you write your name in Japanese?
- What is the national sport of Japan? Can you research and practise some of the actions?
- What food is traditionally eaten in Japan?
- Do people in Japan have any traditional good luck symbols? Find out what a “Maneki Neko” is and draw or make your own.
Thank you, Mrs Keeler.
