Year 2 Remote Learning Pack
Welcome
Hello everybody! • We miss you all lots! It has been nice to speak to some of you on the phone and hear about all the hard work
you are getting up to, we are very proud of you! Keep working hard and looking after each other. Don’t forget you can email us if you need any help with any of the work or you want to show us what you have done, using: [email protected].
• There are video links within your pack to support your learning throughout the week. • Remember, as well, it is really important to keep up with your daily exercises, either using some of the links
we have sent you, or even PE with Joe Wicks which is on every week day on YouTube. • Each task in English and Maths is split into three. They are split into: red/orange, green and blue. The
children know what groups they are in at school they are in for Maths and English. The activities start off easier and get harder. The children will need to complete the work for the group that they are in, however if they wish to begin with the easier questions and work up to the harder questions that is fine.
• You will also find this information on our website where you will then be able to download it if you wish to
alongside a list of useful links.

Day 1 History
Focus: Finding out about important people from the past.
Mary Seacole lived more than 150 years ago and had an adventurous life travelling across many lands to run businesses and help people in need.
During the Crimean War, Mary travelled to care for wounded and sick soldiers.
Watch the video below to find out more about Mary and her achievements.
Mary was born in Kingston, Jamaica.
Her dad was a Scottish soldier, and her mum was Jamaican, so Mary was mixed race. Mary's mum ran a hotel where wounded soldiers sometimes stayed. She taught Mary how to use plants to help care for them. At that time, a disease called cholera spread across Kingston. Mary helped those who were sick. Cholera was a terrible disease.
When Britain sent soldiers to war in Crimea, the disease was more dangerous than the enemy. Thousands of soldiers died from it. Because Mary knew how to treat cholera, she wanted to go to Crimea as a nurse, but she wasn't chosen to help. Mary went anyway, using her own money to pay for her journey.
Watch the clip below to tell you more about Mary's early life and her journey to Crimea.
7 | P a g e
When Mary reached Crimea, she set up a hotel right on the battlefront. The soldiers liked Mary so much that they called her ‘Mother Seacole’.
Watch the clip below to learn more about Mary's role in the Crimean War.
During the war, Mary sold hot meals and looked after wounded and sick soldiers. But helping the soldiers cost so much money that by the time the war ended, Mary was very poor.
To pay her debts, she wrote a book called ‘The Wonderful Adventures of Mrs Seacole in Many Lands’. After she died, people forgot Mary Seacole, but we remember her today as a woman of mixed race who lived an exciting and unusual life.
She owned a business, travelled to many places, and went to a war zone, bravely helping others.
Watch the clip below to learn more about Mary Seacole after she returned from the war.

Task: Create a poster about the life and achievements of Mary Seacole.

Day 2 Maths
Focus: Adding and subtracting money (notes)
Use this video of the UK notes to help you. You need to make £25.00, using notes. Don’t forget there are only certain
notes, so you can use a £30.00 note, because it doesn’t exist!
How many ways can you make £25.00, using addition and subtraction?
£50-£10-£10-£5=£25 £50-£20-£5=£25
£50-£5-£5-£5-£5-£5=£25 £50-£10-£5-£5-£5=£25

Day 3 Maths
Adding and Subtracting Money: Coins and Notes
Now we are able to add and subtract money with both notes and coins we are going to spend the rest of the week
looking at real life problems that involve money. Look at this problem. It is asking us to find the least value. This means
the money that is the smallest. First we need to add up each one:
£2+£2+£2=£6 £10+£10+£10=£30
£20
So the smallest is the first picture of £6
Now you have a go! Use everything you know about adding and subtracting money to work out these money problems.
