Year 2 Summer 1 Term

Here are some ideas for activities you can do at home

Rainbow write - Children write the word in pencil, then write it again over the top in three different colours

Pyramid write - Children write the first letter, then on the next line the first two letters, then the first three and so on. For example:
k
ki
kin
kind
kindl
kindly

Vowels and consonants - Write each word, draw a circle around all the vowels in one colour and all the consonants in another colour

Sentences - Can you use each word in a sentence? Challenge - Can you use more than one of your words in a single sentence?

Silly sentences - Can you think of a silly sentence using your word? Be as ridiculous as you like!

Flower write - Draw a large flower and fill each part by writing one of your words over and over

Syllables - Can you split each word into its syllables? (Beats per word) Remember to put your hand under you chin and say the word to help you. For example:

kind | ly

Air write - Can you write each word in the air with your finger?

Pictures - Draw a picture for each word to help you remember them

Modelling - If you have playdough or clay, you could make each letter to spell the word or even create a 3D model of your picture from the last activity

Speed write - How many times can you write one of your words in 60 seconds?
