Year 4 Home learning Friday 15th May

English

Well - are you ready for the final chapter? Lets see what happens.. Who will triumph at the Firework competition? Will Lalchand have to be killed? Will Lila become a firework maker?

I have put the last chapter below. (I was tempted to read it to you so I could put on my silly Italian voice for Signor Scorchini but I changed my mind!)

I would like YOU to read this together with an adult - maybe take in turns to read. Read actively - picture the beautiful scenes on display. The names of the firework makers are very funny!

  1. Take an accelerated reader quiz on this book - click on the how to help your child link to get straight to our ‘Accelerated Reader Quizzes’ page.

2. You also have a book review to do some time over the next week - in Purple mash.

Maybe consider which book YOU would like to read next. How about reading some more Phillip Pullman? How could you begin to challenge yourself with your choices of books so that you are reading books with vivid language and marvellous characters like this?

Maths

Today we will be finding fractions of quantities/amounts. This will need a lot of focus, effort and practice. You can do it Year 4! Grow your brain.

Year 2 Home Learning Challenges - Friday 15th May

It’s Friday Year 2! Just one more day of learning and then you can enjoy the weekend with your families!

Phonics

I understand that the phonics videos are now repeating themselves because all of the sounds have been taught. If you feel that revisiting these sounds is worthwhile for your child, please do keep accessing the videos using the link below:

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.

Remember, you should be reading for at least half an hour each day. Also try to read both a range of fiction and non-fiction books.

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 5

Read together the opening extract from Horrid Henry Peeks at Peter’s Diary from Horrid Henry and the Football Fiend by clicking the front cover opposite.

Discuss why people choose to write a diary – i) to retell key events that have happened to them that day and ii) to make comments on these events or talk about their thoughts and feelings.

Re-read Perfect Peter’s diary entries on pp10-11 of the extract. Ask whether these are good diary entries or not. How could they be improved?

Imagine you are Perfect Peter. Your challenge is to rewrite the diary entry for one of the days. You could imagine that you are writing the entry after one of Henry’s troublesome antics that you’ve read about this week. Remember to i) retell the key events from the day and ii) make some comments, or write about your thoughts or feelings in response to what happened.

Check all sentences for spelling and punctuation together.

Day 4

Read together the opening extract from Horrid Henry Robs the Bank from the Tricky Tricks Collection by clicking the front cover opposite.

Discuss the game Gotcha that Horrid Henry and Moody Margaret are playing. Does Gotcha remind you of any board games you like to play? What are the similarities or differences? It sounds like Henry likes to cheat! Do any of your family members cheat when playing board games?!

Whilst we have been in lockdown and socially distancing, you may have been playing some board games with your family. Use the opportunity to dig out some old favourites and play again! Talk about your favourites and why. Do you have a board game that you think Henry would like to play?

Your challenge is to introduce Henry to a board game and write a review. You would need to include:
name of the game
number of players
a basic summary of how to play
why the game is one of your favourites and why you think Henry would like it
a star rating.
