Wednesday 13th January

Good morning my lovelies, I hope you are all ok.

Today would have been our PE afternoon but, so that everyone gets some PE time in school, we have swapped it to a Thursday instead.

We really enjoyed jumping around, dancing and counting in school, so if you fancy having another go, here it is.

Super Movers counting

We will begin with our maths. Today we are going to be adding multiples of 10 to 2 digit numbers.  Have a look at the PowerPoint and then have a go at the sheet that suits you best.

Here is the 100 square, you may need it for today’s work.

Here are today’s sheets. As always, sheet 3 is the most tricky.

For English today I would like you to make your own board game. Yes you heard me right! It can be about anything you like, animals, times tables, Disney characters, cars, snakes, anything!  Have a look at your board games at home for inspiration, look at how they are set out and what the aim of the game is.  You can design your board and questions in any way you like. You can write the questions on the board itself or you could make question cards for people to answer. It’s up to you.  Below are some board game templates if you need them but feel free to come up with your own design.

Once you have designed and made your game, play it.  Make sure you are really clear about the rules. Explain them to someone at home and show them how to play it.  Tomorrow we are going to write instructions for how to play the game.

Continuing our oceans theme this week, have a little read about the amazing dolphin.

Comprehension 3

Here is a little more information about these amazing mammals if you want it.

This afternoon is now our science afternoon.

Have a look at this PowerPoint about how people grow and change throughout their lifetime.

In the PowerPoint, I have asked you to investigate whether people get faster as they get older.  You could do this with younger or older brothers or sister, or the grown-ups you have at home, if they have time.  You could even create a grid to record your result.

Science for Wednesday

We often end the day with a story, have a little listen to these. Find somewhere warm and cosy.  You could even ask a grown-up to make you a warm drink.  Be careful though, it’s really hard to sit still and listen to Pete the cat.

Have a lovely day, let me know how you are getting on.
