Year 2 – week one – Tuesday 16 th June

Guided readingRe-read the text from yesterday. Read it once out loud and once quietly in your head. Look at the words you have underlined: Using a dictionary (online if you haven’t got a hard copy) find the words and write down the meanings for each one. If you underlined some words as ‘powerful’ write next to that word why you think it is a powerful word and what the writer is trying to say. For example: Famous: Know to or recognized by many people, very well knownDetermination – is a powerful word because it makes the reader think the man never gives up but is a better word for saying it.

The importance of hand washingWe know that Handwashing remains the No. 1 tip for preventing the spread of Coronavirus (COVID-19). It’s common sense and it works. However, it must be done properly and with soap and water. When soap and water are not available, the next best option is to use a hand sanitizer.Handwashing requires five simple steps:

Wet: Put both your hands under clean, running water. Lather: Apply a generous amount of soap to the inside and back of your hands as

well as your fingertips. Wash your hands for at least 20 seconds (sing happy birthday) and don’t forget to wash under fingernails. Your fingertips are especially important as people often put their fingers on their face, nose, and eyes. This is how the virus spreads.

Scrub: Rub both hands together and move your fingertips around both hands. You don’t need a scrub brush. You don’t need to make harsh, scrubbing movements.

Rinse: Return both hands to the running water and gently wash away the soap. Dry: Completely dry the water from your hands. Using a disposable towel (paper

towel) is best to avoid leaving germs on towels. Air dryers, commonly found in public bathrooms, are also effective.

When do I need to wash my hands?

Handwashing throughout the day is important, but even more important during an outbreak. Always remember to wash your hands in these situations:

After returning from a public outing (grocery store, work, school, concert, sporting activity, hospital, nursing home, etc.).

Before leaving the bathroom — both at home and in public bathrooms. Before, during, and after preparing food, especially raw food. Before eating food. After blowing your nose, coughing, or sneezing. After handling pet food or pet treats. After touching rubbish. After putting on your shoes.

Task: Create a diagram to show another child how to correctly wash their hands Use these as ideas for setting out your diagram: Put your diagram up somewhere in your bubble or at home to remind others!
