Good morning everyone! Well done with your home learning yesterday, it was great seeing how hard you are all working.
We will be holding our class daily zoom today. Please make sure you do join, it is an important part of our day and an opportunity to discuss our daily home learning activities. You will find our daily zoom links on Class Dojo.

Maths Home Learning
We are going to start off our maths session by singing our number bonds to 10 song. Once you have joined in, please write down all number bonds to 10, making sure you don’t leave any out (*reminder* there are 11 altogether). Why not challenge yourself even more by writing down the number bonds to 20.
Today we are going to continue with our Multiplication and Division unit, concentrating on dividing by 2. This is where we are sharing a number equally into two groups. For example:
Let’s have a close look at our number sentence and what each part means:
Now, please watch the video below which explains dividing by 2 in greater detail.
Spr2.4.1 – Divide by 2 from White Rose Maths on Vimeo.
I would now like you to complete the work sheet based on dividing by 2. Remember, I like you to be as practical as possible, and using different equipment can help our learning. There may be many things around your house to support your learning of dividing by 2. Make sure you ask permission first, but some ideas are lego bricks, dolls, cars, books, sweets, fruit or coins. You will be using these to divide by 2 – sharing equally into 2 groups. You could draw two circles on a piece of paper, use string or wool to make a circle shape, or use a hoop – be creative and as practical as possible during your maths worksheet activity.
Cheeky Challenge: Complete the true or false problem below. Show me your working out either by drawing the coins and groups or using real coins. Can you challenge yourself further by creating your own true or false problem card?
English Home Learning
To start our English lesson today, I would like you to look at the following picture in detail. Then I would like you to list as many adjectives (exciting describing words) as possible. Finally, please use at least two of your adjectives in a sentence. How many sentences can you write? As an extra challenge, can you include three exciting adjectives in a sentence?
We are continuing with our English based on the story Lost and Found by Oliver Jeffers. To start with, please write a full sentence describing your favourite part of the story, and explain why.
Now, let’s listen to the story again.
Today, we are going to be focussing on a letter WAGOLL (What A Good One Looks Like). Over the week we will be building up our knowledge and understanding of letter writing, so by the end we can write our own letter. Here is a letter WAGOLL:
Your first task is to read the letter, then think about everything that has been included. Write a list of the features you can see or those that you already know need to be used in a letter. As a challenge, can you write an sentence to explain what each feature is?
Now, let’s have a look at the features we need to include. You can use this to check against your list, or use this as a guide if you feel you would like support whilst finding the features.
Finally, I would like you to imagine yourself in the story Lost and Found, and that you need to write a letter. Please think about your audience – this is who you are writing the letter to. Also think about the purpose – the reason you are writing this letter. Please write full sentences to describe both sections.
Cheeky Challenge – Have you ever sent a letter? If so, who was it to and why did you send it? Have you ever received a letter? If so, who was it from and why was it sent to you? Finally, if you have never sent or received a letter, who would you like to receive a letter from and why?
Please carry out your daily reading.
Music Home Learning
Please continue learning our whole school song – Any Dream Will Do from Joseph and the Technicolour Dreamcoat. Whilst learning this, listen to the pitch, the different ways you can express your voice and the different ways you can show emotion with your face.
PE Home Learning
I have attached our favourite Zumba videos below. I know you all love performing alongside these, and they are a great way to sing and dance at the same time. Remember to make sure you follow each action and that you have enough space around you. Have fun!
Have a good day and remember to keep sending in your work.
