Here are today’s lessons:
Tuesday 21st April
Literacy: Handwriting
Warm up
- I can practise my baseline join from the letter i to e.
Task: Focus – Record your date, title and I can statement in your jotter. Copy the ie join and the sentence into your jotter.
A. Copy the pattern into your jotter. B. Copy these letters into your jotter: ie on a line, ide on the next line and igh on the next line.
Remember to start the letter i halfway up on the line. 😃
Main Activity
- I can trace and write pattern, letters, words and sentences in my neatest handwriting.
Task: Extra – Record your title and I can in your jotter. Copy these rhyming words into your jotter. Remember to take a finger space between each word and dot the i when you have finished writing the word.
Task: Extension – Copy these sentences into your jotter. Choose a word from the box above to complete each sentence. Check over your tall letters and letters that fall below the line. 📝
Challenge: can you find and record other words that have ie, ide or igh in them? Record them in your jotter.
Finisher: Reading – Log into Oxford Owl by clicking on ‘MyClassLogin’ at the top in pink and enter woodp4 with password as the password.
Click on MyBookshelf and search for a book of your choice. Look at the front cover and try to read the first page – if you can it’s a good book for you. Listen to the story or read the story and try to complete one short activity. If your book has smaller print or more content you can read 10 pages. 📚
Record the book title in your jotter and give it a rating out of 5 stars (1 ⭐ is poor > 5 ⭐ is excellent).
Maths: Addition
- I can mentally count on in 100’s.
Warm up task: Mental Maths. Record your title, I can and Q1-14 in your jotter. Complete mental maths sums by adding on in steps of 100’s. You can also use the link below as an abacus to help you. Check over your answers. ✏
Make the number and use + to add on in 100’s:

Main activity: 3-digit formal addition
- I can formally add 3 digit numbers by 3 digit numbers with carrying in the units column.
Task: Record your title and I can in your jotter. Take your time to write out one sum at a time with neat digits written underneath each other and the + symbol to the left. This will help you keep the HTU in the correct columns. Use a ruler to draw your answer lines. Calculate each sum.
Remember to look at the example given to remind you how to carry over. If we look at the Units 9 + 1 = 10 so we write our 0 in the units column (one digit in one column) and we carry over the 1 (tens) to the column to the left. Don’t forget to add this on in the next step. 6+2+1=9 so we write 9 under the tens column. Finally 5+4=9 so we write 9 in the Hundreds column. The total answer is 990.
You can use your fingers carefully to help you count on accurately. 👍🏼 Check over your answers and traffic light your work.🚦
