Please practise writing out each initial sound/phoneme as you sing along to our Jolly Phonics songs.  You could use a whiteboard or write them into your jotter, just one time for each sound.

Revise the wh phoneme in the same way that you did on Wednesday.
When, what, whip, whisk, whisper any other wh words that you would like to try.

Common words – Practise reading all of your common words from your word box.  Can you read the three new words? Well done!  Today I would like you to do some rainbow spelling 🌈 Choose 3 colours and write each word with each colour, like this..

If you would prefer, you could use chalk and write them outside.

Dictated sentences – ask your child to try to write one of these sentences into their jotter, read a word at a time slowly for your child to write down. Boys and girls remember out little song 🎶Capital letter at the start, full stop at the end, finger spaces in between and show it to a friend🎶Choose the sentence which best suits your child.

1. I went out to play.

2. What will I do now?

3.I got a new toy.

Reading – Choose your favourite story from home and ask someone in your family to read it to you.  Try read the common words that you can from it.  Make a list of any of your common words in the story.

Numeracy

Can you tell someone in your family the days of the week? How many days are in a week?

Can you rhyme the months of the year? How many months are in a year?

Can you write down 3 different ways to make 10?

Health & Wellbeing

During this time at home we might be feeling lots of different emotions. Sometimes we might feel happy to be with our families, sometimes we might feel sad when someone does something we don’t like, sometimes we might feel afraid because everything is different.  It’s ok to feel all of these things.  Can you draw the faces showing how these people feel and talk to someone in your family about how you are feeling today?

Remember that these are only ideas and we know that you may not be able to do them all, everyone has different circumstances.  Do what you can do, that’s all that we ask.  I hope that you have found some of the tasks useful.  If I can help in any way please contact me:

I hope that you have a lovely weekend in the sunshine and manage to spend some time in your gardens or go for a walk, cycle or scoot!

Take care,

Mrs MacLeod 😁

Good morning my super sevens 🌟,

How are you all? I hope you are all working hard and helping your parents out at home.

As always, let’s begin the day with our morning prayer. 🙏🏻

To get our brains switched on this morning I thought we could begin with a few fun riddles:

1. What is full of holes but still holds water?
2. What becomes wetter the more it dries?
3. What belongs to you but others use it more than you?
4. What goes up but never comes down?
5. What kind of coat can only be put on when wet?

These should get your brains working today and I will post the answers tomorrow morning. I had good fun trying to work them out, you all know how much I love riddles. Good luck!

Here is the link to today’s learning activities:

Thursday-23rd-April (1)

Remember you do not have to complete every activity, just try your best that is all I ask for.

Have a good day and remember how fantastic you are!

Mrs Butler ❣️

Good morning to all our fabulous fives!

Let’s begin our day with our morning prayer.

God Our Father, As we begin our days work, we ask you to help us to use properly the many gifts that you have given us, so that we may fully benefit from our day together.

St Barbara, Pray for us.

Please say a Hail Mary for all those who are sick

Let’s wake ourselves up and start our day with a Joe Wick’s workout.

MATHS

Here is an eggcellent way to revise your knowledge of times tables. Make your very own ‘Egg Carton Shake Up’ game and compete against a family member.

For numeracy today let’s practise some real life application of place value. You will be changing money, lengths and weights into their decimal forms. Watch the video lessons carefully, try to answer the examples given in the clip. Finish by checking how well you did. You can choose to complete the Bronze or Silver level; or you can have a go at both. I would recommend wearing earphones as you listen, it might help you to focus fully.

LITERACY

Authors_Live (3)

Last term in class we watched Cressida Cowell on Authors Live. It was a very interesting show as it gave us an insight into where she gets her ideas and how she goes about writing her amazing stories. The link above will take you to a Power Point with a variety of Authors Live activities. There are five different authors to choose from. You should select a slide and copy and paste the link into your URL. This will take you to some amazing events with real life authors. Try to complete suggested activities linked to your chosen event.

Revise your knowledge and understanding of similes and metaphors by watching the BBC Bitesize lesson below:

https://www.bbc.co.uk/bitesize/articles/zkygrj6

If you have time today you might choose an activity form your new Learning Grid.

Have a lovely day boys and girls. Try to enjoy some time outdoors; we are very lucky that the sun is shining. Try hard to help around the house, your parents are extremely  busy and would appreciate your helping hands.

A huge well done to Keiran New for making a very cosy reading den in which to enjoy his new David Walliams book. I hear that you are a big brother Keiran. I know that you will be an amazing brother! Congratulations!

Good morning girls and boys!😁 I hope you have been having fun with your home learning. Please begin today with your morning prayer and say a special ‘Hail Mary’ for all the people who are sick in our world and for those caring for them.

How did you feel? I felt excited/I felt amazed/I felt over the moon

Reading – Practise reading the book that you chose yesterday to someone in your family.

RE

Today is St George’s Day, St George is the Patron St of England. Here is a little story of St George and the dragon. Perhaps you can draw a little picture of St George and the dragon for me?

Here is an extra idea for you if you find the time (or you could work on it for next Thursday), can you make your own musical instrument to play and cheer for the NHS?

Hope you have a great day and remember to enjoy the sunshine, try to do some exercise outside 🌞

Looking forward to hearing from you,

Mrs MacLeod x
