Year 6- work for the week beginning 20/4/20

Hi Year 6

We hope you had an enjoyable Easter break and ate plenty of chocolate eggs!
Your work this week is on Purple Mash. Mrs Thomas and I have set you all a number of tasks: there is a fast 10 for each day and some literacy based activities which we will add to every day, so try to keep on top of this work. In addition to this, please continue to use Read Theory and TTRS.

As a school, we have decided to run subject themed weeks for you to have a go at in the afternoons and this week is Art. Please see Miss Hailey’s post below for a range of activities you can complete. Please upload your pieces on to the school blog because we’d love to see them!

If you are unable to use Purple Mash and would prefer for Mrs T or I to send you some paper based work electronically, please email us and we will send some work over.

Have fun!

Miss C and Mrs T

Year 1 Maths – Monday 20th April

Hi everyone!

We hope you have had a lovely, restful couple of weeks over Easter. We have loved seeing some of the fun, Easter projects that you have been busy completing and we are sure you are eager to get back to your home learning now 🙂

Our focus in Maths this week is going to be telling the time and today we are going to begin by learning o’clock times.

Monday 20th April Maths Activities

Today’s lesson asks you to warm up your maths brain with an active maths challenge. Some of you may have started to have a go at some of these challenges over Easter, so perhaps you could choose 1 or 2 more to have a go at today!

Here is an example of what Activity 3 might look like….we can’t wait to see all of your super work on PurpleMash 🙂

Home Schooling Literacy Monday 20th April 2020

Hello Year 1. We were so lucky to have a beautiful, warm Easter holidays. We have planned some nice things for you to kick-start your final term in Year 1.

We sent spellings out on the last day before the holidays. Please practise these today, ready for your test on Friday. You could turn this into the 4-in-a-row style game attached below either by printing or on paper. ing suffix 4 in a row game

As part of our new Science growing theme, we are beginning the new story of ‘The Enormous Turnip’. In Y1 it is important to learn and recite familiar tales in order. Please read the story to your child and encourage them to join in with the repetitive familiar parts.

When you have finished the story, see if your child can order the story. They could do this by acting out the story (We would love to see pictures of this) or they could make their own character puppets either by drawing their own puppets and cutting them out or using the templates provided if you have a printer.

Can they repeat all the words? Can they introduce new characters in order?

Here is a copy of the story and resources you may need.

We are looking forward to seeing your Literacy work today.

Fun fruit snacks 🍎 , outdoor painting 🎨 and teddy bear hunts 🧸

On Thursday, we enjoyed playing cricket outside in the sunshine. When we got hungry we re-fuelled by making our own fruit caterpillar snacks 🐛. We took them outside to eat in the sunshine and played some more games. After lunch, we used some old wallpaper to do some Spring painting outside. Then, we went on our very own bear hunt. There were 10 bears for us to find and each bear had an exercise challenge for us to complete. We finished our day by watching an animation of ‘We are going on a Bear Hunt’ on YouTube. Thank you for such a lovely day everyone!
