In Year 2, in preparation for joining their letters, we are beginning to teach the children cursive handwriting.
This handwriting guide, which the children have brought home this week, shows the order in which we will be practising these letters.
Well done to Seerat who has already had a go at writing the alphabet using cursive handwriting at home.
Also, in addition to the weekly spellings, we have been checking the children’s spelling of the tricky words from Year 1. These are words that are commonly used in writing but you can’t always your phonics knowledge to help to spell them.
The children will be bringing this learning home so you can see which of these words they need to work on. Putting these words in sentences would be great practice to do at home.
Any questions, please do come and ask us.
Help at home: use these prompts to ask your child what we have been learning so far in Year 2.
