Wednesday 6th January 2021

Good morning my lovelies,

Well, I have to say this is not how I wanted to begin the new year and I’m sure it’s not how you wanted to either. I’m sure it wont be too long before I see all you all again.

Before you begin your maths today, you may want to print out a 100 square to help you when you are counting.  Once you have printed it out, you can keep it in a safe place for another day.

100 square

Here is today’s PowerPoint.  Please bear with me as we all get used to this way of working again.  As you play the PowerPoint, you will hear me asking you questions. As I recorded it, I imagined all your fabulous faces in front of me so I didn’t feel too silly.

Wednesday counting in 3 cards

If you are feeling super confident, have a go at ‘Hit the Button’.  We have played this before in school. Today choose the 3 x table.

Have a read and a listen to this PowerPoint.  Today I thought it would be nice to write a letter to someone. You could say thank you for some thoughtful presents or just tell them what you have been doing and how much you miss them.  I know you will remember a capital letter to begin each sentence and a full stop to end them.  If you listen very carefully, you can probably hear me nagging!!!

After lunch, we usually do our reading lesson. Here is a comprehension about penguins for you to have a look at, choose the one that you feel most confident with.

Comprehension 3 is the most tricky.

On Wednesdays we would be having Mr Farlow for art, I know he will be very keen to work with you as soon as we are all back together again.  This term our topic for art is linked to our science topic of ‘Animals and their Habitats’.

This week, I would like you to practise some sketching. I know some of you are amazing artists and will enjoy this.  You can sketch your favourite animal from a book or your pet in real life.  Whichever you wish to have a go at. Remember, art is never perfect because it’s not a photograph so don’t get frustrated if it doesn’t go to plan.

Keep me posted on how you are getting on.  If you have time, you can email me and show me some of your work or just let me know how you are getting on. It will be lovely to hear from you.

Miss you all,

Love from Mrs Pope x
