I should also like you to make up a simple Bar Chart of your own. Refer to the Corbett video if you need reminding how to do this.

For fun, I attach a sheet showing you how to make a Bird Feeder. If you have time to do this, great, if not, don t worry.

 

Finally, to be kind, please say “thank you” to your parents for looking after you so well. Remember, this is hard for them too. Maybe don t tell them I suggested it but just do it and watch them smile!

Good morning P4A. I hope you are well and happy. I am missing you all.

As you know, our new Topic is Weather.  So, today, I should like you to research Weather and take some notes. You do not need to upload this to Teams but be prepared to use your notes for work for tomorrow.

I also attach a Weather Wordsearch so that you can practise your spelling of Weather words.

As you know, our current, out of number,  Maths Topic is Data Handling. Last week, we looked at Pictograms and you all did a fab job on the tasks.

This week, we are looking at Bar Graphs. I attach a short video on Bar Graphs and a Workbook Page to be completed.

Please ask Mr Dearie or I if you don’t understand.

THURSDAY 30th APRIL

Good morning P4A. I hope you are all well and happy. We are super impressed by how you are all coping and the effort you are putting in to your tasks. Well done!

Today’s tasks are as follows:

Literacy for Thursday AND Friday –  I should like you to research the collective nouns for the following animals. A collective noun is the name for a group of something, in this case, animals.

Ants, Bats, Fishes, Foxes, Geese, Monkeys

Then, on Friday, I should like you to make a really silly story using as many of these collective nouns as you can. The sillier the better!  It would be great if it was illustrated but not essential. Please also use some of your amazing WOW words to pepper your story!

Please upload this to Teams.

Please also finish your BugClub book, ensuring you have answered all questions carefully and with lots of detail.

Also, on Friday, ask your family or friends (via video?) to test you on any spelling words. Perhaps have a virtual Spelling Bee for fun! Don’t need to submit anything but please hit “hand in” so that I know you have completed this task.

As far as we are aware, no one in our class is using their eportfolios to post their work. If you are,  you must let us know or they will not be checked.

Numeracy – We are now looking at Data Handling in Maths.

So, I should like you to do a survey amongst your friends and family to show their opinions on something. For example, you can ask about their favourite colour, sport or hobby.

You can give them choices or use their answers to generate your choices. Give your survey a bright and interesting title and use tally marks to record answers.

No need to record anything for this although please hit “hand in” once you have done it but keep your notes for next week as we shall use this to do further Data Handling work.

Please also test yourself on your tables. You can do this as you wish – painting, chalking, writing, Hit The Button … Just hit “hand in” to tell me you have completed this task.

PE – A PE lesson has also been loaded for you.

Have a great day!

Mrs Green

 

 

Friday 24 April – Daily Tasks

Good morning P4A. I hope you are all well and happy, ready to enjoy your weekend!

Your tasks for today are as follows:

Then finish and illustrate your Easter writing and hand in to Teams or load to your eportfolio.

Numeracy

Please find the Time Individual Practice Game 28 Marching Madness (2 dot) and play this. There is nothing to upload here but please tick the “hand in” button so that I know that you have done it.

Enjoy!

On a piece of paper, I should like you to draw 6 to 8 clocks and draw the times on them (it might be easier to use different colours for each hand so that it is clear which is which). Remember the big hand is for the minutes and the small hand is for the hour).

Underneath, I should like you to write the times in one or two ways, eg 2.15 and quarter past two

Health and Wellbeing

We are going to be learning about Food Groups. Therefore, I should like you to watch the attached Powerpoint and take some notes.

Food Groups

You don’t need to hand anything in but please keep your notes as we shall be using them next week.  Please also tick hand in so that I know that you have done this.

Don’t worry if you cant access the Powerpoint for some reason, just get some notes from Google by searching “food groups”.

Boys and girls, please do not stress about this work. Just do what you can manage and keep happy!

Have a lovely day.

Thursday 23 April Work for P4A

THURSDAY 23 APRIL – DAILY TASKS

Good morning P4A!  I hope that you are all well and happy. It sounds like most of you had a lovely Easter break and I look forward to reading about that.

The  tasks for today will go live at 10am as usual,  as well as the tasks for Friday,  so that you and your parents can manage work as suits your family.  Remember that parents have work to do too and that you can only ask for their help in between their own work. Be kind to each other so that nobody in your family falls out!

Thursday 23 April – Literacy Tasks

Please write out your Spelling words for this week 3 times (checking of course that the spelling was correct the first time!).  Then upload this to Teams.

You should let me know if you are unable to load to Teams so that I can check your eportfolio separately. As far as I am aware, no one in our class has needed to use eportfolios rather than Teams so I shall not be checking these unless you let me know otherwise.

For your Writing Exercise this week, I should like you to use the Easter words you have learned (or new ones if you wish) to write at least two paragraphs about the real meaning of Easter.  You may consult the Internet, books or an adult but please write the explanation in your own words. Please then upload to Teams.

You should write or type this and upload to Teams.

French Family Cards

Then, please draw some pictures of your family on paper/computer. Then label them with the French names. You can add any other family members you like (look at Google for help).

Please upload this to Teams.

There is also a PE activity to do, if you haven’t already done it.

Good morning P4a. Mrs Green here.  I hope you are all well and happy. I am very proud of how you are all coping with completing your work and uploading to Teams. You must all be getting excited about the Easter break now, a well deserved rest for you (and your family)!

I shall be available from 11 till 12 then 2 till 3 if you need help or to chat. Have a lovely day!

LITERACY

Please finish reading your BugClub book, due tomorrow. Ask an adult to listen to you read and use the most amazing expression you can manage.

Secondly, think of the Healthy Snack you made last week. On paper or on a Word document, I want you to write clear and concise instructions of how you made your Healthy Snack. You should use bullet points and check all spelling.

First, you will need to write a list of ingredients under the heading “Ingredients”. Next, you will need to write a list of short instructions to tell people what to do eg

Ingredients . 

.Bread

.Mozzarella cheese

. Butter

. Lettuce

. Tomato

Method

. Spread low- fat butter on each slice of bread

. Place slices of low fat mozzarella cheese on one slice of bread

. Add thin strips of tomato on top of the mozzarella

. Place lettuce on top of the other fillings and so on.

Please then upload to Teams. You can draw pictures to go with it if you like. You can choose any Healthy Snack you wish. It doesn’t have to be the one you used last week.

 

NUMERACY

Select 3 times tables that you find a bit tricky and practise them on Hit The Button (Topmarks). Ask an adult to test you once they have finished their own work!
