Hello everyone,
Hope everyone in your family are well and managing to put your time in. It is important to spend time outside every day even if it is just playing in your garden.
I am just checking in with everyone and giving you some ideas for activities for your home learning for this week. Remember just do what you can, these are only suggestions.
Take care everyone and stay safe. I will be in touch again next Monday.

Literacy
P2 and P3 – Look at your Active Literacy sounds sheet and practise the new words for the ‘ou’ sound. Practise writing the words for that sound in your laminated Boxes in your pack. Challenge yourself to write some of your own words using the sound. Write 3 sentences using one of your words in each sentence.
Bug Club – Reading
Log on to Bug Club and read 2 of your books. Ask an adult to help you with the tricky words. See how many ‘ou’ words you can find in your reading book and write them down. Well done to everyone who has been reading their books.
Writing
This week for our writing we are going to be writing about a Missing/Lost Pet. First you have to put the name of your pet and what type of pet it is then you have to write some sentences using capital letters and full stops about why your pet has become missing. P3’s can try using different connectives in your writing and some adjectives. When you have completed this you can draw a picture in the box of your pet. This is an imaginative piece of writing therefore if you don’t have a pet this is your chance to make one up. You could use the link below or just write it on a piece of paper.

Numeracy
P3’s this week could practise division on Topmarks site Hit the Button, remember you have been dividing by 2, 3, 4, 5 and 10 in class. After this you an complete a colour division activity. It is colour by 2, 5 and 10 division. I have put the link below if you can’t access the link write out some division sums on paper dividing by 2, 5 and 10.

P2’s this week can practise number bonds on Topmarks site Hit the Button then complete some of the Number Bonds Challenge Sheets. If you click on the link below you will be able to print them. If you don’t have a printer don’t worry you can practise writing number bonds to 20 on paper.
P2 and P3 – Continue logging on to Sum Dog and playing games.
P2 and P3 – We are going to be revisiting symmetry this week. A nice activity for you is ‘Draw the Other Half Symmetry’. Here are some examples for what you can do. After you have drawn it you can colour it in.

Stem – Your Stem activity for this week is How to Make a Bird Feeder from a plastic bottle. This is a nice activity to make with an adult because they will need to help you with the scissors part. When you have made it you can hang it in your garden and watch all the different birds come to enjoy the food. I have copied the link below for the Natural History Museum which shows a short video clip on how to make it.
