Good Morning Year 2,
Unfortunately another day of home learning. I hope you enjoyed doing the activities yesterday.
Only 9 more sleeps until Christmas, if you have an advent calendar I wonder what you got when you opened the door this morning- I got a chocolate star!
Follow the links again below to access your work for today. I look forward to seeing how you got on when we get back to school.
Phonics
Click on the link above. You will need a pencil and a piece of paper for this activity. Otherwise, you can Fred talk your answer! Each word has the first sound missing. Click on the picture to hear the word. Choose the set of special friends that completes the word and then on your paper write the word. e.g. The first word is __ip, clicking on the picture you hear the sound 'sh' write the word ship. Repeat for each of the other words.

We have had a very exciting day today as our friends from Byker Fire Station came to visit us in their fire truck. We have been learning all about The Great Fire of London this half term so it was an amazing way to end our topic. The showed us some tools and equipment, let us squirt water out of the hose and told us what to do if there was a fire. I'm sure you will agree from our faces in the pictures that we had a fantastic morning!
