Morning Ahlberg class, it is Friday, what day was it yesterday can you remember? What day will it be tomorrow then? Today is a zap it dance, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=757gCoVBwEU  

For today’s learning we have…

RWI

Remember to practise your sounds daily. RWI will be holding daily virtual lessons for children to practise their sounds:

Set 1 sounds at 9:30am

Set 2 sounds at 10:00am

Set 3 sounds at 10:30am

They have updated these lessons to include word time for set 1 speed sounds and spelling for set 2 and 3.

There is also “Storytime with Nick” three times a week (Mon, Wed & Fri at 2pm) and some poems that your child can learn and perform.

SPaG

Today is our handwriting and spelling day. See the worksheet I’ve attached and remember your lead ins and always start on the line. If you don’t have a printer you can practise them on a piece of paper at home.

Literacy

Did you enjoy finding out about spiders?  I hope you kept all your facts safe because now you are going to use them.

I would like you to think of a way of showing off or displaying this information.

Today I am going to let you decide how you would like to do this.

Here are a few ideas:

Make a colourful poster with pictures / photographs with sentences.

Make a model or art work of a spider and attach some of the facts. (e.g. lift the flap)

Make a spider hanging mobile displaying spider facts.

Make your own booklet about spiders.

Make a game where people find out about spiders.

Make fact cards about spiders. (like Top Trumps)

Make a video. Perhaps you could be a reporter like David Attenborough!

You might be able to think of another way. What is important is you decide!

Have fun with it and I look forward to seeing what you have all done.

Maths

This is recapping your learning from a couple of weeks ago to get our brains working. https://www.topmarks.co.uk/addition/robot-addition

ALL groups:

Today we are going to be learning about weight. In the class we use scales to measure objects. If something is heavy it drops to the floor. If something is light it floats in the air on the scales. It is similar when you go on a see-saw with your mom or dad. They go to the floor and you go in the air because you are lighter. Choose the worksheet for your group:

You have done some super learning this week, I thought it would be nice for us to go outside and put our learning to the test. I have attached a scavenger hunt for you to complete this weekend.

Music

Last music lesson we learnt about rhythm. This week we are going to be learning about Pitch. Pitch is the word we use to describe how low or high a sound is. Here is Meg to show us about following a rhythm.

Can you ask the people in your households to make a high pitch? Who can make the highest pitch sound? Now ask them to make a low pitch? Who can make the lowest pitch sound?

PE

Our PE lesson today is a bit different, we’ve had some lovely weather so I think it would be nice for us to get out and play some bat and ball games. It doesn’t matter what type of bat you have and if you don’t have a bat you could use your hand. Follow the worksheet below for your PE lesson. The Joe Wicks website is still here if you would like to give it a go. We look forward to seeing your pictures of your ball game.
