Summer Diary

Summer 2012 Holiday Book

Today you took home your special holiday book! This book is for you to write in during the summer holidays and to share with your Year 2 teachers in September. 

In class you have started your books by writing about your new Year 2 class and a diary page about your last week in Year 1. 

Can you write a short diary entry twice a week (or more!) about your holidays?  You could even include photos and pictures.  In the front of your diary there is a list of key words to practise reading and writing during the summer. 

In your diary there is also a maths book for you to do at home.  It does not have to be done in one go you might like to do a page a week! 

Last week Meg from the library talked to us in assembly about Story Lab, the summer challenge to win a medal by reading 10 books from the library.  Mr Cruickshank always says that reading is the most important homework, you could write a short book review of the books you have read in your diary.

If it rains lots in the summer why not look at these websites:
