Maths Home Learning

We are going to start off our Maths lesson by joining in with our number bonds to 10 song.  Once you have done this, please write down all number bonds to 10.  Can you write any of the number bonds to 20?

Today, we are going to continue with our unit on Multiplication and Division, with our focus today being on using Arrays.

An array is a way of visually representing our multiplication.  To start with, let’s watch the video:

Spr2.2.1 – Using arrays from White Rose Maths on Vimeo.

You can use many things to make an array.  You can draw the array, use small toys or, if we were in class, we would be using circle cereal!  Why don’t you have a look around your house (asking permission first) if you have anything to make arrays from.

Now, please complete the worksheet.

Cheeky Challenge: Complete the mastery question below using the skills you have learnt today.

 

English Home Learning

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

We are going to continue looking at What We’ll Build by Oliver Jeffers.  If you would like to listen to the story again, the link is below:

Today we are going to be exploring feelings.  Let’s have a look at the slides below:

Concentrating on the last slide, I would like you to discuss the following questions:

• How do you think the girl is feeling now?
• Why do you think she might be feeling that way?
• Is there a time you have felt like this?

Once you have talked about the questions, please write down your answers in full sentences, using capital letters, full stops, phonics and neat handwriting.

Now, I would like you to explore this page based on our feelings.  There are some video clips to watch and discuss with someone in your household.

Next, I would like you to create a feelings tree.  This can be done as a drawing, or using cardboard and equipment from round your house (ask permission first). On the leaves I would like you to write down different feelings, then on the back of each feeling leaf, please write a time you have felt like this. 

For example: Happy.   I felt happy when we had a zoom meeting today because I got to see lots of the children and their smiling faces.

Cheeky Challenge:  Add an extra leaf on your feelings tree to describe how you are feeling today.  On the back explain why you are feeling like this.

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

Design Technology Home Learning

Continuing our work on Noah’s Ark, over the next three days we are going to be focusing on designing then making a boat, followed by seeing if it floats or sinks.  Today, we are going to design our boat.   Noah built his Ark to save the people and animals from the floods.  I would like you to have a good think about the type of boat you would like to design, consider:

• The shape
• The size
• The material used
• Who your boat is for
• Why your boat is needed

Have a look at some of my ideas:

Now you have had a good think about the type of boat you would like to create, you need to design it using a plan.  Please draw your boat carefully, writing labels around it to show what each part is.  Next, I would like you to write a sentence about:

• Why you have chosen this design.
• Why you have chosen this material.
• What your boat is going to be used for.
• If you think you boat will float or sink, and why.

Remember to share your work, if you have any questions, do get in touch.  Have a good day and stay safe.
