Today’s specific activities:

1. Teddy Bears’ Picnic

At the end of the week you can have a Teddy Bears’ Picnic for your teddy bears/toys but first you have to make your invitations! What do you think your teddy bears/toys need to know?

Talk about this, e.g. day, time, place.

What else do we need to include? E.g. Dear… love from…

How will you decorate our invitations?

You might choose to design and make one invitation for all the toys, or you might be feeling keen and want to create one for each of them – it’s up to you! When you have written your invitation(s), use colour and any craft materials available to make your invitation(s) as attractive as possible.

2.  Maths: Princess Mirror-Belle

Please go onto the White Rose website and begin on Summer term Week 8 (15th June) Lesson 2

Can you create a picture of your favourite teddy or toys? What do they look like?

Can you write a sentence about your teddy/toys too?

Don’t forget to save your picture so that I can have a look at it.

I hope that you have a lovely day!

Take care and stay safe,

Year 2 Home Learning Challenges - Monday 22nd June

Welcome to a new week of learning. Have a super day!

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.

Complete the comprehension below for chapter 2 of The Owl Who Was Afraid Of The Dark - ‘Dark is kind’

English

This week you will have the opportunity to enjoy some of Oliver Jeffers’ most entertaining and thought-provoking books. You’ll even be able to have a go at writing your own in a similar style!

Day 1:

Watch and listen to the story ‘How to Catch a Star’ up to 3:40 mins by clicking the front cover below:

Talk about what has happened so far in the story. Can you recall all the different attempts the boy has tried to catch a star? Can you remember why each one hasn’t worked? Look back/listen again to check.

Imagine you are the boy in the story. Your task is to write a letter to an astronomer (someone who studies stars and space) asking them for help to catch a star.

Include all the things you have tried so far and why each one hasn’t worked. You can use the joining word ‘but’ to help you join the parts of the sentence, e.g. I tried to jump up and grab a star but it was too high.

You might want to use the introductory sentence and sentence starters below to help you:
Dear Astronomer, I’m writing this letter to ask for your help in catching a star! I’ve already tried a few things but none of them have worked!
First of all I tried …
Next I had a go at …
I’ve also …
I’ve even …
I’m beginning to think I will never catch a star!
Please can you help me!
Yours sincerely, Signature

Check all sentences for spelling and punctuation together. Return to the story (using the link above) and find out if the boy did eventually manage to catch a star!

Oxford Owl Spellings

Choose a spelling rule to focus on today.

Maths

Watch the ‘time’ learning video and complete the activity below.

IXL

Which sections do you have left to complete? Have a look and see how many you can get through.

Purple Mash

I have set two games on Purple Mash for you to play this week:

Bond Bubbles and Sequence Snake

Sumdog

Unfortunately at the end of this week, our SumDog subscription will come to an end. Therefore this week, you can just simply enjoy playing the games that you have loved using in your learning throughout your time at home.

Don’t forget to check the weekly challenges for more learning!

Have a great day!

Year 4 Home learning for Monday 22nd June

Good morning Year 4!

English

For the next 2 weeks, we are going to be reading lots of Viking myths and practising lots of different reading skills along the way

Watch the video of me below - (Jinxy cat is in the background having a wash. Don’t let her distract you!)

Then watch the film ‘How Odin created the world.’

Then I would like you to recreate Yygrasil, the tree of life, drawing and labelling the different worlds as you go down the tree. I would love to see pictures of these - please send!

Maths

Today’s lesson is dividing 1 or 2 digit numbers by a hundred.

Remember what you know about place value. When you divide by ten all numbers jump one place to the right.

How many jumps to the right will you make to divide by one hundred?

RE

Today you are going to be finding about the 7 Sacraments. Then I have set you a blank book template 2do in Purple Mash to make your own book about the sacraments.

1. Read the information and then watch the video

2. Create your book

Sumdog

Unfortunately, this week is our last week of being able to access Sum Dog. I have set you some decimals practice and some other things if you want to make the most of it, before the subscription runs out at the end of the week!

Year 3 Monday 22nd June home learning

Hello you little superstars, welcome to this week’s home learning. I hope you have had a lovely weekend and are raring to go!

Sum Dog

Please note that as of the 1st July school will no longer be signed up to SumDog, so this is the last full week for you to complete all tasks previously set and try to progress your score.

Epic reading

Epic reading will be changing slightly from the 1st of July, for those of you who signed up you are only able to use it for 2 hours a week. Still plenty of time! Remember, there is still a vast selection on the Acceleread link on the how to help your child section of my learning page, so keep up the great reading work on there too.

Reading

Can anyone else get to their reading target this week? We have Isabelle there so far, can you make it to the 100 club with her?

Maths

Click below for today’s maths, enjoy.

English

We have made our way through the Year 3 spelling words thanks to Mrs Nel’s hard work teaching spelling lessons at school, so there is no need for a spelling quiz this week. Plus we need to crack on with The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe. Let’s get reading!
