Year 2 Home Learning Challenges - Thursday 30th April

Good Morning Year 2.

I hope that you had a wonderful sleep and are ready for the day ahead. Here are Thursday’s learning challenges:

Phonics

Access the RWI sessions below. All the children would benefit from accessing the set 3 sounds lesson, however some might also benefit from the other sessions.

Set 1 Speed Sounds at 9.30 am
Set 2 Speed Sounds at 10.00 am
Set 3 Speed Sounds at 10.30 am

https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCo7fbLgY2oA_cFCIg9GdxtQ?fbclid=IwAR3Ls7yR6-0ebguznW0u_pCJYHWG3LFra3fS7C_PxZ03XibY2toSLrutI4g

If you do however, feel that these sessions are not really benefiting your child, please feel free to access reading materials for a little longer instead.

Reading

Continue reading and quizzing on books using the Accelerated Reading and Epic Reading resources. Help can be found in the ‘How to help your child’ section of my page if you need it.

It also isn’t too late to sign up for the Epic Reading resource. If you would like access to a huge range of books, some with quizzes, please send an email to l.woodend@ourladystarofthesea.lancs.sch.uk. This will enable me to send you an invite to create an account.

Day 4 - Goldilocks and the Three Bears
Use the link below to listen to and enjoy Goldilocks and the Three Bears from Revolting Rhymes up to 3:59 mins.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IxHn2v3dz5E

Jot down new or interesting words to explore meanings and discuss, e.g. delinquent, tot, suggestion, distressing, house-proud, cherubs etc. Model orally putting new words into different sentences and encourage your child to do the same. Listen from the start to 3:59 mins again. The narrator repeatedly asks, in response to Goldilocks’ actions, how would you feel? Pause each time this is asked and discuss.
The narrator also makes clear her dislike for Goldilocks all the way through the poem. Discuss how the narrator might describe Goldilocks, e.g. Naughty, spoilt, selfish. Do you agree? Re-watch from 3:36 – 3:59 mins. Pause and make a list of all Goldilocks’ crimes.
Imagine that you are Goldilocks. Write a letter to the narrator, apologising for your crimes, perhaps providing some explanation as to why you did what you did. Just like on Tuesday, remember to lay out your letter with your address, the date, to and from. Check spelling and punctuation in each sentence together.

Finish watching to the end of the clip. Do you think if the narrator had received your letter, the ending could have been different?

Today I have set you a spelling challenge.

Year 4 Home learning for Thursday 30th April

Maths

If you found yesterday’s lesson tricky, it is well worth revising fractions on IXL. Y1 - Y7 revise recognising fractions.

Today’s lesson moves on to equivalent fractions. Watch carefully and do your best. Don’t Give up Sadie Spider. If you are finding it a little too hard, you could revise equivalent fractions from Year 3 here. Week 2 lesson 5 ‘Equivalent Fractions’ is good.

English

Today we will be reading a little more of the story and thinking about the characters. I have copied the task I want you to do underneath the video. This video is for today and tomorrow’s lesson so you will stop it when I say to complete your activity then return to it tomorrow.

Dear year 4

I am so delighted to see how hard you are trying at home. I know it is a very different situation from being in class but is so lovely to see so many of you adjusting to it - you are really into the swing of it now - those persuasive letters were FANTASTIC!!!!

I’m just busy writing your school reports at the moment which I am enjoying, but it makes me miss you a lot!

Keep it coming year 4 - keep trying your very hardest - YOU ARE THE MASTERS OF YOUR OWN LEARNING JOURNEY!

Day 3 - The Tummy Beast
Use the link below to listen to and enjoy The Tummy Beast from Dirty Beasts by Roald Dahl.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tinzhrgFILE

Watch the clip again, this time while following the text, accessible here:
https://www.poetryfoundation.org/poems/51659/the-tummy-beast

If you are able to, print off the text from the link above. Highlight the lines spoken by the mother in one colour, and those spoken by the child in another.

Use this highlighting to help you read the text aloud together. Put on your best character voices to perform! Perhaps you could take on different roles in your family!

Discuss what is happening in the poem. Why do you think the mother doesn’t believe the child? How is the child feeling when the mother doesn’t believe them? What happened to the mother at the end? What do you think the mother might say when she recovers?

Write a diary entry as if you were the child or the mother, recounting the key events of the day. You could even pinch some key words and phrases used in the poem!

Its mid-week! Don’t forget to keep up with your reading Year 4. Nessy children need to be doing this each day. How are your weekly activities coming along?

I have kept you waiting a while but now its time to enjoy more of the book. We are reading the next 20 pages! I will read it to you again - but you can always re-read it afterwards. Then you have a reading skills task to do.

Maths

Are you ready to start Fractions? Today there is a short video, with activities for you to complete afterwards. This first lesson is revising how we represent Fractions. If you feel you need a refresher, there are two sheets below of fractions for you to recognise. You could print out and fill in or simply go over each answer with an adult.
