Good morning Troughton Class! 

It's your last day of home learning this week! Well done for persevering and working hard this week. You are super stars! After today you can sit back, relax and enjoy your weekend. 
Keep sending me emails and pictures of your work. It's helpful for me to see how you are getting on!

Phonics

Miss Sharpe's group - Just like yesterday I would like to join in with the live phonics lesson streaming on youtube at 9:30am (remember if you miss it - don't worry! It will be on the youtube channel for 24hrs) 
You are learning set 3 sounds so make sure this is the one that you watch. You should also watch the spelling video to match the sound which you are learning today.
It's really important to keep practising your sounds. 

Here's the link:

Reading

Today you are going to continue practising reading skills using the text, 'Chinese New Year'. Today you are going to find and copy important words and phrases and determine whether a sentence is true or false.

Use your ninja eyes to skim and scan through the sentences to locate the correct part to copy. 

When you answer the true or false questions, look back over the text and read the sentences carefully to work out if the statement is true or false.

Today's dance is 'Banana, banana meatball!' Don't shout too loudly, you might wake your neighbours up!

Maths: Red, Orange, Yellow and Green groups

Now that we have learnt lots about multiplying we are moving on to learn our times tables.

To start our 2 X table learning today join in with the super movers video below. Can you copy Bridget the Lioness’ moves?

https://www.bbc.co.uk/teach/supermovers/ks1-maths-the-2-times-table-with-bridget-the-lioness/zrrx92p

Watch this video below to learn more about your 2 times table. When the video tells you to have a go, you don’t need to do this part as you don’t all have all of the questions that go with the video.

Red, Orange, Yellow and Green group: Look at the representations to write the multiplication number sentences. How many groups of 2 are there?
Answer the times table questions in the question with a number 3 by it then you can work out which arrays they match to. Look carefully at the arrays as you will need to add some circles to make the arrays correct. *A little hint the arrays have 2 in each column.*

Red and Orange groups: For your challenge you need to fill in the missing numbers. If the question says 12 = ____ X 2 you can count in 2s until you reach 12 so see how many 2s make 12 or you can draw out an array or use resources to make an array where your columns have 2 in each, then see how many are in each row for your answer.

Yellow and Green groups: For your challenge You need to show 3 more ways to show 10 X 2 by adding 2 multiplied amounts together.
You should try to draw out your multiplications into arrays or use resources at home to make arrays so that you use the correct amount and can make sure you have found 2 multiplications that when added together are equal to 10 X 2.

In the example, added together is 3 X 2 and 7 X 2 (3 X 2 is 6 and 2 X 7 is 14 so when 6 and 14 are added together it is 20)

Maths: Blue group

Today you are moving on to complete some subtraction learning. Subtraction is when we take away from an amount.

For your learning today you will be looking at a picture of an amount and crossing off the amount you are subtracting.

Watch the video in the link below to teach you how to subtract.

https://vimeo.com/492197096

When you are completing your learning, read the number sentence and then cross out the amount you are subtracting. Then count what remains so that you can find the total.

If your question doesn’t have a picture, you can draw the amount out and cross out the subtracted amount if this is helpful for you to do.

Writing: Spelling

Blue group

Today we are going to look at our spelling families.

These special friends make the same sound but are spelt differently.

igh (fly high)

i-e (nice smile)

ie (terrible tie)

Look at these words, where does the sound come in each of these words?

high, night, smile, shine, tie, pie

You are going to sort the words into the different ways of spelling this sound like we do in class. When you have finished choose 6 words and write a sentence for each.

Can you spell each of the words on the challenge activity?

See if a grown up can quiz you on spelling these words too! How many words can you spell correctly?

Red, Orange, Yellow and Green groups

Today we are going to be looking at another spelling rule.

Look at these words:

all     ball     fall     walk     talk      also     always

Write each word down on a piece of paper and underline the letter that is making the “or” sound?

Yes, it is the letter a.

The ‘or’ sound before ‘ll’ is usually spelt as ‘a’.

The ‘or’ sound before ‘l’ is usually spelt as ‘a’

Now try your spelling activity. You will need to read each word and sort the words in different ways according to the spelling of the “or” sound.

After you have completed the activity, there is a word search to do. Practise these spellings with a grown up. How many words can you spell correctly?

PSHE

For our PSHE learning today we are going to be thinking about our goals. Goals are things we want to achieve they can be big or small. You might have a small goal where you try to complete a level on a game you are playing. Or you might have a big goal that you need to work towards such as, achieving a new belt in karate, a music grade or learning to swim!

Ask someone who is with you about a goal they had and achieved. How did they reach their goal?

Watch this video where a young person tells you the best way to set a goal and be able to achieve it.

What is something you really want to do?

What do you need to do to reach your goal? What are the little steps you must take to get there? What reason have you set this goal? What obstacles may stand in your way as you try to reach your goal?

Write your goal in the star and write the small steps to achieve your goal around the shooting star. You could choose a different colour to write any obstacles that may stand in your way around the shooting star too, then you could cross each obstacle off when you have thought of a way to conquer that obstacle.

Blue group: Draw a picture of your goal.
