Right guys, it’s Thursday and do I have a treat for you! The trolls are here! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KhfkYzUwYFk

For today’s learning we have…

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

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 we are going to play a game, we have got Picnic on Pluto for you to feed the two alien’s Obb and Bob. Obb eats nonsense words and Bob eats real words. Read each word carefully using your Fred talk and feed it to the right alien. https://www.phonicsplay.co.uk/PicnicOnPluto.html

Literacy

Traction Man is the boy’s favourite doll. He used to have a Traction Man but there was a terrible parachute accident. The boy was very upset when this happened and missed playing with him. He wrote a letter to Santa asking if he could have a new Traction Man.

This Traction Man was better than his old one and came with lots of different outfits for different adventures.

Today I would like you to pretend you are the boy writing a letter to Santa thanking him for the present.

A letter has some special features. Look at the labelled picture to see how to set your letter out.

Your letter needs to include:

1. Why you are writing.
2. How often you are playing with your new Traction Man.
3. What your Traction Man can do.
4. What outfits Traction Man can wear.
5. What your favourite thing about Traction Man is.
6. How you are going to look after your toy.
7. Anything else you would like to tell Santa.

Don’t forget you still need to use a capital letter at the start of a sentence and a full stop at the end of a sentence. If you are writing a list of things, you need to use a comma. If you want to ask a question in your letter you need to include a question mark.

Perhaps you could use some adjectives to add more detail to describe Traction Man.

You can either use your own paper to write your letter or click on the letter document to print the letter.

Maths

This morning we have a maths warm up to get our brains working, try to complete this independently.  

G/Y/R/O groups:

Today we are going to be sharing equally again, make sure you cross out each item as you share them between the groups and then write your answer to complete the maths sentence. Here is a game to share equally, remember to say “one for you, one for you” as you share. https://pbskids.org/curiousgeorge/busyday/dogs/

Remember to practise your times tables with Times Tables Rock Stars.

Blue group:

Your learning today is to sort real life objects, like the ones you found yesterday, under the right shape name. Cut out the pictures and stick them under the correct shape. 

RE

Last week we continued our learning about Islam and looked more closely at mosques. This week we are going to learn about the Qu'ran and why it is so important to Muslim people.
You have some activities to do along the way as you work through the power point.
If you are using the PDF version here is the link you will need: https://www.bbc.co.uk/bitesize/clips/zrn34wx 

I'm looking forward to seeing what rules you come up with in order to make the world a better place.

PSHE

We have been thinking a lot about how to keep healthy and safe in our PSHE learning. 
This week we are going to think about different activities we can do to reduce our screen time. It's okay to watch videos and play games on our tablets or play on our games consoles but we should try not to spend too long watching screens to help us keep healthy.
Spending too long on screen can make it tricky to sleep at night and can make us less active because we are sitting for a lot of the day. 
 

First of all, can you list some activities you can do that don't involve a screen?

Next, sort the activities into screen-based or not screen-based activities.
Finally, look at the list of screen-free activities and choose one or more to complete, you could do a few different ones over a few days. Send me an email showing which activity you chose!
