Home Learning Monday February 1st

Good morning,

I hope that you are all well and eager to begin our home learning this week. Try to join your daily Zoom session with your class teacher as this will give you the chance to talk about your home learning and ask any questions you need to. Invites will be sent out daily on ClassDojo.

 

English

You can join in with daily RWI Phonics sessions each morning with Rosie on Youtube. These sessions are streamed live at 9.30 each morning and are available for 24 hours.

You can access your reading books and reading activities on Bug Club, where we can track your progress. Don’t forget to send a message to your teacher if you have any difficulties logging in.

As your warm up activity today I would like you to look carefully at the picture below:

What can you see?

Collect a list of adjectives (describing words).

Now challenge yourself to put these into a descriptive sentence. Can you use two adjectives in your sentence?

I would now like you to click on the Powerpoint below, we are focusing on using ‘and’ to join words and clauses:

Maths

First I would like you to join in with our warm up song.

 

Today, we are going to complete a maths problem challenge.

This is called Different Sizes, just like how David and Goliath were different sizes.

We need to put the shapes in order from smallest to biggest.

You can download a sheet which may help here:

Challenge:

Can you arrange them in a pattern which shows doubling?

Could you draw some different pictures that also show doubling?

 

Now, what about HALVING? Could you make an arrangement or new picture to show halving, again and again?

 

R.E.

We have been focusing on the Bible story of David and Goliath. I would like you to add sound effects or musical accompaniment to your puppet show.

It would be fantastic if you could ask a grown up to film this and send it on Class Dojo!

Again, well done for all of your wonderful efforts with learning from home. We know it isn’t always easy but we are all here to help you when you need it. We look forward to seeing you on our daily Zoom meetings. Well done and keep up the good work!
