This morning we will be writing a diary entry about the adventures the penguin and the small boy have. Please watch the video below to recap the story.
You will need to reflect on the story and recall some of the events that have taken place. Pick one or two events to write about and remember to use full stops, capital letters and past tense. You need to imagine you are the little boy and write from his perspective.
E.G.
Wednesday 3rd March 2021
On Wednesday I answered the front door and on the doorstep was a small penguin, I was extremely confused. The penguin followed me everywhere I went and looked sad, I decided that the penguin must be lost and I started to help him find his way home…
Please see worksheet below
Have a look at the video below to see what you need to include.
Please see a WAGOLL ( what a good one looks like):
For English today we would like you to create a lost or missing poster for the penguin. Have a look at the video below which shows the penguin turning up at the little boys door lost.
When creating your lost or missing poster you need to include
Have a look at the picture below to give you some ideas on how to describe the penguin and what to include
Here is the worksheet for todays task. If you would like to make your own lost or missing poster you can.
Have a look at the example below.

For today’s science lesson, we will be looking at grouping and classifying every day materials. For this you will need to go on a hunt around your home for items made from different materials, E.G. T-Shirt (cotton), hat (wool), tracksuit (polyester) and plant pot (plastic). If you are unsure of any materials have a look at the picture below. Click to enlarge.
There are two activities for you to complete this afternoon. Have a look at the worksheet below where you will need to put the items you have found around your home into the right material groups.
Worksheet- Grouping
Once you have completed that activity, you need to have a think at which material will work the best and design your own coat. You need to label your coat with the properties it has and tell me why this material would work best. If you are unsure of what properties there are please see bottom of worksheet for the key vocabulary.
Worksheet- Design a coat
Have a look at the video below to help you identify different materials.
Types of materials
Materials have different properties that make them useful for different jobs.
Metals
Most metals are strong, hard and shiny materials that can be hammered into different shapes without breaking. They are good conductors of heat and electricity and some are magnetic. Their properties make them useful for objects such as cutlery, saucepans, cars and coins.
Plastics
Plastics are materials made from chemicals and are not found in nature. They are strong and waterproof. They can be made into any shape by applying heat. Plastics are not magnetic. They are good insulators and don’t conduct heat or electricity. They’re used to make things like bags, bottles and toys.
Glass
Glass is made by melting sand and other minerals together at very high temperatures. It is normally transparent and can be made into different shapes. Thick glass can be strong, but thin glass breaks easily. It’s used for objects that need to be transparent, such as windows and spectacles.
Wood
Wood comes from trees. It is strong, flexible and long-lasting. It is an insulator of heat and electricity. It’s used to make things such as furniture.
Fabrics
Fabrics are made from thin fibres woven together. Different fabrics have different properties. They can be stretchy (a pair of tights), insulating (a woollen coat) or absorbent (a towel). Fabrics are used to make clothes as they are flexible, warm and do not wear out easily.
Natural materials, such as wool and wood, come from living things or the ground. Synthetic materials, like plastic, are made from chemicals.
Please click on the Bitesize page to see a short video explaining the above everyday materials: https://www.bbc.co.uk/bitesize/topics/z4339j6/articles/zx8hhv4
We have also provided you with a PowerPoint if you are still unsure about grouping and classifying everyday materials: Grouping and classifying everyday materials
Please do not hesitate to contact us if you need any help with any of the above.

This week we are holding Maths support sessions (for both Long Mynd and Hawkstone) focusing on times tables.
Children should know which individual times tables they are learning or need support with, however, if unsure, please just come along to the sessions you feel would benefit your child’s quick recall and fluency skills. See time table below:
Monday – 10:30 2s 5s 10s
Tuesday – 10:30 3 times table 11:00 4 times table
Wednesday- 10:30 6 times table 11:00 7 times table
Thursday – 10:30 8 times table 11:00 9 times table
Friday – 10:30 11 times table 11:00 12 times table
Click to enlarge also click link to download your own copy of the resources – times table poster, multiplication-square, blank multiplication-square, multiplication-wheels.
Remember, the curriculum suggests that by the end of Year 3, children should be fluent in the 2, 3, 4, 5, 8, 10 times tables, and then by the end of Year 4 it’s those tables plus the 6, 7, 9, 11, 12.
Year 3: 2s, 3s, 4s, 5s, 8s, 10s
Year 4: All times tables up to the 12s
There are lots of fun and engaging online games to help with times tables, see below a list with links:
Times table rock stars: https://ttrockstars.com/ (each child was given a log in – in their reading record)
Mathletics: https://login.mathletics.com/ (each child was given a log in – in their reading record)

You are welcome to come along to any of the above sessions, they will each be about 15/20 minutes long and are there to: recap on the individual times table, talk through strategies to help you learn, a quick test if wanted, questions and resources.
Please don’t hesitate to contact us through Dojo, email or ring the school office if you have any questions.
This afternoon is PE and Art and Design Technology.
I would like you to start with a PE session by Callum Wright from ‘TWWG’ please log onto his you tube channel and subscribe to today’s session.

Art, Design and Technology- This afternoon we will be tie dying old clothes, E.G. socks, t-shirts, vests, table cloths. It is up to you what you want to use. If your item is white then it will work better but this is not a necessity.
We will be tie dying to link in with our bible story for this week, Joseph and his coat of many colours.
On Joseph’s seventeenth birthday, Jacob gave him a magnificent present. It was a coat woven with a beautiful pattern that contained many different colours. Joseph loved the coat, but when his older brothers saw it they became even more jealous, and their dislike for him grew even stronger!
Please watch the video below for a step by step guide on how to achieve this look using food colouring. if you have any other methods for this with the equipment at home you are more than welcome to try your own.
Please see some examples below and we would love to see your creations with a before during and after picture.
Have a fantastic and creative afternoon and we look forward to see the wonderful tie dye items by dojo or class email.
Please re listen to the story Lost and Found by Oliver Jeffers.
For today’s task we would like you to imagine you are packing a suitcase full of items for the little boy and the penguin to take on their journey to the South Pole.
Have a think about the essential items they may need.
Remember to think of the climate at the South Pole when thinking of the essential items.
Below you will find a blank suitcase template for you to use , however if you would like to create your own that is perfectly fine.
We would like you to draw, label and write a short paragraph about a couple of the items you have included. Please include adjectives within your work to describe the items.
Please send you work back via Class dojo and as always any questions please do not hesitate to ask.
Good morning. Today we will be looking at how to use the internet safely. Have a look at the video below to learn some top tips to stay safe on the internet.
