Year 2
Welcome to Year 2s Home Learning page!
Please keep checking back to see examples of our work, suggestions for a daily timetable and lots of other resources to help.
There are lots of other resources about wellbeing, helplines and advice in the Advice For Parents section.
One of the most important things for us is that your child is happy and safe. Use this as an opportunity to bake, play games in the garden, paint, sew, make things together!
The suggested timetable is a guide; Home Learning has to work around your family and circumstances.
June Half Term Activities
Below is a timetable for the next few weeks. It generally links to the work in the Home Learning packs which have been sent out.
In your packs you should have:
- Maths - the white rose resources and some maths mats.

Suggested timetable:

My favourite part of the day - lunchtime!
