Homework

It’s Friday!!

 

Maths

In this lesson, we will be building on our knowledge of scales for mass by introducing capacity and millilitres and litres.

 

Reading

For today’s reading session it is Love of reading.
In class, we’d usually have a Love of Reading session each week where we read something that we love. Adults use the time to read with children.
Today, I’d like you to…
● Get really comfy: wear some thick socks, a dressing gown or wooly jumper. Sit somewhere soft and relaxing.
● Turn all electronic devices off: TVs, radios, computers, phones, tablets, etc.
● Spend some quality time reading with each other. Read aloud, take it in turns, put on voices for characters, re-read things to improve how you’re reading them.
● Talk about what you’re reading. Which are the best bits? Why? Does it remind you of other things you’ve read or watched? Do you know anything about parts of it from other knowledge that you have? What do you think of the characters? What will happen next? Why do you think that?

 

Spanish

In this lesson, we will recap our previous learning in Spanish and then learn how to answer the question ¿Dónde vives? and saying where we live in Spanish. For this lesson, you will need a pen and pencil and some paper, as well as another person or a cuddly toy to have a conversation with!

Maths

Have a go at the subtractions below.

Reading

Read the description about the sports day race.

An egg and spoon race is a sporting event. Each person in the race must place an egg or ball on a spoon. If it falls off, you must stop and put the egg back on the spoon. The winner is the first to cross the finish line.

Think of your own race and write simple description of how to do it.

Challenge : Draw and label a picture of your race.

Topic

Make an obstacle course in your house or garden. Have a go at completing it a few times. See if you can get better each time. Make sure you put everything back where you got it from when you have finished!

Good morning!

Maths

In this lesson, we will be building on the reading of scales for mass, moving onto reading different scales, and focusing on differing intervals.

 

Reading

Yesterday, you read a story about a man who bought a mountain. Today, we’re going to change our text type and look at a fact file. Read this fact file all about the ocean. You have two challenges to choose from today for your reading comprehension – an easier challenge and a more difficult challenge.

 

SPAG

It’s been a while since you’ve had any SPAG lessons in school. Have a go at this SPAG mat to give your brains a workout. There are three challenges to choose from. Choose which you think best suits you.

Good morning!

Reading

Have you ever fancied being a detective? Every time you infer something that you have read, you are being a reading detective. Today, your reading task is a “Whodunnit” story. Whodunnits are a story where the reader acts as a detective to find clues and solve the crime. When you have read the text, you need to complete a deductions sheet much like a real detective. You’ll need to think carefully about each of the suspect’s alibis. Finally, bring all of the clues together to make a deduction about who committed the crime. I’ll post the answers tomorrow.

Again, there are three different possibly challenge levels. Choose the challenge that you think is right for you.

1 star – story and deductions page.

2 star – story and deductions page.

3 star – story and deductions page.

 

Maths

Today, we are continuing our learning about mass here with Oak National Academy. In this lesson, we will begin to add and subtract mass, including regrouping the values. We will use the partitioning strategy as a process to add or subtract the mixed-units (kg and g).

 

Topic

Have a look at Mrs Latham’s post all about PE under the homework page- it’s West Yorkshire’s School Games Virtual Sports Day.

PE: virtual sports day

Posted on Monday 06 July 2020 by Mrs Latham

Whole school sporting activities

Sadly, our favourite events of the year – sports days – cannot take place in it’s normal format this year. However, the next best thing is to take part in a virtual sports day and we’re excited to be joining the West Yorkshire Virtual School Games Sports Day on Tuesday 7th July. The day will involve the children taking part in multiple activities with the chance to compete against other schools across the county. There will be a number of prizes on offer too.
What do you need to do?
Have a look at the guidance for parents/carers to help you prepare for the day.
When does it take place?
There is a live opening ceremony shown here at 10am on Tuesday 07 July and the activities can be completed at any point in the day.
Is this just for children who are back at school?
No – the activities can be done by children at school and at home. The sports day will be one of your child’s home learning activities on the day.
What are the activities?
The parent guide gives details of all the activities and instructions will also be given on the video released on the day.
Do children have to complete all the activities?
We would encourage the children to have a go at as many as they can but they don’t have to complete them all.
How do we submit results?
This is the link to submit results (live from 10am on 07 July up till 12pm on the 08 July). All children’s results will be added to their school score.
We would love to see the virtual sports day in action so please share any photos of your children taking part and good luck to everyone!
