What’s included in the Year 2 Recognise a Half Homework resource and why is it useful?

Year 2 Recognise a Half Homework is a set of worksheets to consolidate this step after it has been taught, at home or in class. Each set has been carefully designed to help you meet each child where they are at to ensure progress for every child, not just the average child. The content includes 3 levelled worksheets and a full answer sheet, covering recognising a half of shapes, objects and lengths, and circling half of a group of objects.

• Q3 explaining why a statement is or is not correct about an object using knowledge of a half. Visual support provided.

Expected

• Q4 matching the statements to the correct images. Images consist of mixed shapes including circles, triangles, quadrilaterals, using a horizontal or vertical line.
