Year 2 Daily Challenge - Wednesday 22nd April 2020

Wednesday 22nd April

Good morning Year 2.  Did you all remember how to solve division problems yesterday?  Those children who sent me their work were amazing at it.  Remember you can send me a photograph of your work on Class Dojo.

Today's Activity is Reading!

Listen to the story 'A Squash and a Squeeze' by Julia Donaldson using the link below.

Can you answer these questions about the story?  You can tell the answers to a grown up or write them, in sentences, in your Homework Book.

  1. Who is the main character in the story?
  2. How would you describe the old lady?
  3. What is the problem in the story and how is it resolved?
  4. What words does Julia Donaldson use in the story that mean the same as 'small'?
  5. Who would you recommend this story to?  Why?
Extension:  What other animal might the old lady invite into her house?  Draw a new page/illustration for the book showing the old lady inviting another animal into her house.  You might like to add some text too.
I hope you enjoy the story!
Remember you can access books on Oxford Owl similar to those that we read in school.  I sent a link on Class Dojo on Monday for this.
