Year 2 - The Big Write 2 Home Learning - 25th November 2016

The Big Write 2
Writing a letter

We have been practicing our letter writing skills over the past week or so.  For our next Big Write on Wednesday the 30th November we would like the children to write a letter to a real person.  The children have already had a think about who this could be and what they would like to say.  Over the weekend could you:
1.  Talk to your child about their letter and what they would like to say,
2. Maybe collect some pictures that remind them of what to write  
3. Have a go at finding an address for them to send it to?
On Wednesday we will write our letters in our Big Write session and after they have been marked and a best copy made we will send them home for you to see and actually post with your child if you wish!
Talking about your child’s writing with them will make them more confident and able to have a go!
Some ideas for who to send your letter to…
Father Christmas
A celebrity from your favourite TV programme
A  sports person that you admire
An author
A member of your family
Try to steer away from social media people because we are trying to use postal addresses with this topic, digital communication will be covered at a later date!
