Day: May 19, 2020

Today I started with maths, I did better than yesterday, getting used to (X) and today I was picking it up a little bit better.
The fun part today was making my ladybird book!

 I made my dad and mum two origami animals and I made one into a card for them!

Hola Team Holywood, 

Head over to the French and Spanish page to find new Spanish learning activities! 

Adios. 

Hi there everyone. Rory here.
Just giving an update.
I’ve been working hard on my maths as usual. I’ve been doing Sumdog, but also practising things I have learned in the last few weeks like my big number addition. I also started the first part of halving numbers yesterday. Some of these were bigger numbers than I had halved before so I learned how to divide by 2.

I did some reading on Epic yesterday before starting a new book. I think I am going to be reading a Horrible Histories book about Vikings. I have done the first word cookie and made sentences with the words I found. Mummy found it funny that I could spot the word eight myself but needed some help spotting the word it. Here are my sentences :
I hit the ball over Cleo’s head.
Toilet paper is white.
There was eight people in the shop buying food.
My Daddy needed to get milk from the shop.
I have never worn a tie.
It was really dark at night.
It is hard when playing tig and you are the tagger.
Twigs are really skinny bits of stick from a tree.
I said hi to one of my friends.
The sun was bright up in the sky.
I played a game with my friends.

I also did a 15 minute quick writing this morning about a genie giving me 3 wishes.
I met a genie and he gave me 3 wishes. I wished for a car that I could drive because I don’t want to wait until I’m eighteen. Another one of my wishes would be to get every single video game I have ever wanted. This is because I love video games and they are one of my favourite things ever. My last wish would be for the coronavirus to be gone and quarantine to be over because I miss all my friends.

Going to do a bit more Epic reading right now and then it will be time for more maths. This afternoon we are going to label parts of plants and find out about flowering and non-flowering plants.

Hope everyone has a good day. Bye for now
Rory.

Morning everyone.

I’ve been looking at the leaderboard for the Sumdog regional contest and the senior maths class isn’t even in the top 73 yet… because we’ve only had 9 pupils play, and we need 10 or more for our class to count.

Can we get anyone else playing Sumdog this week and trying to get us up this leaderboard? (Or on it to start off with!) Remember – our class’ score is the average of your correct scores, you can’t just click and guess your way through.

Can we make it on the leaderboard by Friday?

Miss S
