Hello there!
Welcome back to home learning! I hope you had a fabulous week in the glorious sunshine, last week while we were on our half term break. We had some glorious sunshine that was delightful. Myself and Cooper enjoyed some time in the garden last week.
I hope you are ready to begin a fresh week with plenty of learning to complete!
Stay safe,
Miss Sharpe (and Cooper).
Reciprocal Reading
Today we are going to be continuing reading ‘The Legend of Captain Crow’s Teeth.’ Today, we begin chapter 5. I hope you enjoy it, as this is our final chapter of the book.
Read pages 1 and 2 below. Then, you are going to make a prediction on: What do you think Will might say to his parents about who he danced with? Use what you already know of the story.
Grammar
Today you are going to recap our learning of using speech marks because on Friday as part of your big write, you may need to include speech from different characters of our story.
There are two Powerpoints below which I would like you to go through with an adult or independently. Once you have learnt and recapped using speech and using correct punctuation. Find the sheet that is labelled with your literacy group and have a go at completing the sheet. You do NOT need to print the sheet if you have no printer, you can simply copy the sentences adding punctuation and correct chosen words. Please be sure to check your answers at the end of the task.
Maths:
Red, Orange, Yellow and Green - Today you will be learning to draw accurately. You will need a ruler that shows cm and mm. Remember there are 10mm in 1cm. When you round, anything below 5 gets rounded down and anything 5 and above gets rounded up. Attached is a PowerPoint to work through with an adult so that you understand the methods for working out the answers. Once you've gone through the Powerpoint, you must have a go at answering the questions independently (ask an adult for help if you get stuck).
Blue 2: Today you will be learning to order lengths using symbols that you have used many times in school - <, > and =. Remember, there are 100cm in 1m. Attached is a PowerPoint to work through with an adult so that you understand the methods for working out the answers. Once you have worked through the PowerPoint, you must have a go at answering the questions independently (ask an adult for help if you get stuck).
Blue 1: Today you will be revising more than, less than and equal to (<, > and =). Remember, the crocodile mouth always eats the bigger number/value e.g. 60<70. Attached is a PowerPoint to work through with an adult so that you understand the methods for working out the answers. Once you have worked through the PowerPoint, you must have a go at answering the questions independently (ask an adult for help if you get stuck).
Science
Today, you will be learning about the life cycle of a flowering plant. There will be lots of new scientific terminology and it is important you know what these words mean. Work through the attached PowerPoint with a grown up to learn all about the cycle.
After that, use the attached worksheet to test your knowledge of the cycle and the terminology.
B - Complete the activity sheets with 1 star.
RO - Complete the activity sheets with 2 stars.
YG - Complete the activity sheets with 3 stars.
If you have access to a printer, cut and stick the appropriate pictures and explanations. If you don’t have access to a printer, just draw out the cycle with a diagram and explanation using arrows.
