Good morning everyone, how did you get on with your work yesterday? I hope you are all ready for another day of learning at home. Not many days left now!
Let’s wake those marvellous brains up with a little game. This is practising your skills with Carroll diagrams. Today you are sorting shapes. Start on level 1 to begin with.
Today we are going to continue to look at charts but we will be looking at Tally charts. These are particularly useful when you are collecting information and you have all used them in our Science work last year. Have a little look at this PowerPoint and then complete one of the sheets. Sheet 2 is more tricky.
Have a little brain break.
Please can you practise your spellings. Can you either read a little of your reading book or finish your comprehension from yesterday.
For your English today, we are going to look at 4 different types of sentences.
- questions
- statements
- commands
- exclamations
You will need a pencil and paper as you will need to write a little as you work through the PowerPoint.
Next week we are going to begin making traditional African masks out of paper Mache. If you have an newspaper at home, bring it in on Monday so we can store it for a few days before using it.
I thought it would be nice to make some African inspired jewellery today. This is based on the colourful jewellery that the Maasai people wear in Kenya. Here are your instructions. You will need pasta, paint, glue, string and a paper plate or some cardboard.
Traditional African jewellery Instructions
In our PSHE work this afternoon, I’d like you to have a little think about how it’s going to feel when we all come back to school. Are you feeling excited, nervous, anxious or all of them? It’s important to think about how we are feeling and to talk about why we may be feeling a certain way. To help you to do this I’d like you to draw around one of your hands on a piece of paper.
Inside your hand, I want you to write all the things you can control. How you talk to people, manners, how kind you are, getting up on time, getting dressed etc
Around the outside, I would like you to write all of the things you cannot control. How others behave, how other people feel, what other people do, what is going on around the world…
It may be good to have a chat about this with someone at home, they could even have a go too.
Then have a little look. All the things that are inside your hand picture are things you can control and can change. All the things outside of your hand you cannot control and so do not need to worry about. It’s a good way of thinking about the things that may be worrying you and to make sure you are only worried about the things you can change.
I hope you have a wonderful day today.
