Maths Home Learning

We are going to start off our Maths lesson by joining in with our days of the week.  Once you have done this, please write down all the days of the week, making sure all letters are formed correctly and in the right order.  As an extra challenge, can you write down the months of the year?

Today, we are going to continue with our Multiplication and Division unit, with our focus continuing today with subtraction crossing ten, counting backwards.  Let’s start by watching the lesson video:

Spr1.4.2 – Subtraction crossing 10 (2) from White Rose Maths on Vimeo.

Now, let’s complete the worksheet:

Cheeky Challenge: Using the skills you have just learnt, please complete the true or false question.

Remember, you can also access Numbots, TT Rockstars and Mathletics to support your maths learning.

English Home Learning

We are going to start our English lesson by looking at the picture of the forest.  I would like you to list as many as adjectives as possible to describe the forest.  Imagine you are stood in the forest, think about your senses.  Once you have done your list, please use your adjectives in sentences.

Now, let’s listen to our story, The Smartest Giant in Town by Julia Donaldson.

Today you are going to focus on writing and completing your own story about The Smartest Giant in Town.

You are going to write your story following The Smartest Giant in Town but using the change you made on Tuesday.  Have a look at the slide below:

Your story writing is going to be finished today.  Today, I would like you to complete your ending.  I would like you to use lots of description in your story, remembering those exciting adjectives.

Remember it is important to write in full sentences, use capital letters, full stops, phonics and neat handwriting.

Once you have completed your story, you can then add illustrations to go alongside what you have written.

Cheeky Challenge:  Read your completed story and check you have included full stops, capital letters, phonics and neat handwriting.  Also, can you add any more adjectives?  This is called editing and improving.

Please complete your daily reading, remembering you can all access Bug Club.  Please also practice your daily spellings.

Science Home Learning

To start our science lesson, let’s complete an odd one out starter.

Have a good, close look at the three balls below.  Think about and discuss:

  • How are they similar?
  • How are they different?
  • Which is the odd one out and why?

Today, we are going to complete two science activities.  First of all, I would like you to complete Mrs Platt’s whole school science investigation activity.  You will find this on our class news page.  Remember to send me your work so I can pass these onto Mrs Platt.

Next, we are going to be looking at skeletons.

Below is a link for our PowerPoint.  On the PowerPoint you will see a link for a video to watch along with information and your activity for today.

Skeletons

Here is your skeleton cut out worksheet.  If you are unable to print this off, don’t worry, why not draw your own skeleton!
