In Year 2, we expect the children to be:

• Reading every day
• Practicing their spellings 4-5 times a week
• Doing their Maths homework 4-5 times a week 

If you have any issues regarding homework, please do not hesitate to contact us via email on melanie.fuller@fairway.stockport.sch.uk  or alison.eyre@fairway.stockport.sch.uk

READING

To support progress in Reading and Writing, we ask that you read with your child daily.

This daily reading could include them reading aloud to you, you sharing a story with them, reading with a sibling or listening to an audio book.

We do ask that they read the books given to them by their class teachers, but that doesn't mean that they can't share trickier books with adults or read different texts (newspapers, recipes, instructions for games etc.).

SPELLING

Each week, your child will be taught a new spelling rule that they will then be able to practise and apply to their learning.

Each Thursday or Friday, the children will have a spelling test.

The tests will be marked and then returned to grown-ups to see.

MATHS

Your Maths homework is learning key facts that will help in lots of Maths lessons. 

This is done through using the following sites to practice key facts.
