Good Morning Year 2!

Well done for your wonderful sentences yesterday – they were very colourful!

Today we are going to be practising more of the Year 2 spellings.

Can you write a sentence with some of these words in it? Which words were easy and which were tricky? Can you think of a rule to help remember how to spell these words?

If you want to practise these spellings, click here for a list of more words ending in –y and games and activities to help you practise.

When you’re practising your handwriting, remember to start and finish your letters in the right place, sit the letters on the line and remember which ones are tall and which ones hang below the line. There is a handwriting guide in your Home Learning Folders to help you if you need it. This BBC Bitesize page has helpful guides and videos to remind you how to form your letters correctly.
