Literacy Activities Wednesday 25th March

Tricky word Practice: Watch and sing along

Challenge: Choose a book and be a book detective! See if you can find any of these tricky words in your book.

AMAZING ADJECTIVES

In class we had been learning about adjectives. We know that adjectives are words that are used to describe a noun (a person, a place or an object). For example, here is the word big. There are many interesting adjectives that can be used instead of big, such as:

  • massive

  • huge

  • gigantic

  • great

  • humongous

  • enormous

Challenge:  Pick a character from a book or from a film. Draw and colour in this character, remember try to add detail into your drawing. Next, add some adjectives around your picture to describe this character. Remember what do they look like on the outside (tall, small, brown eye, shiny hair etc.) and what are they like on the inside (evil, smart, kind, funny etc.)

Challenge 2: Can you now write a character description (a couple of sentences about your chosen character). Remember to use the adjectives you wrote down earlier.

Here’s some examples:

Subtraction Chilli Challenge 2

Subtraction Chilli Challenge

We are continuing to focus on subtraction this week.

Remember you can subtract by using objects or counters, counting back in your head or even using a number line ( you could make your own number line). 

Also you can use addition to help you, as subtraction is the inverse of addition, for example:

3 + 6 = 9  and 9 – 3 = 6

In your home learning jotter, write the short date (25.03.20) and choose which level of subtraction sums you wish to complete. Get an adult to check your answers. If you have tried the ‘mild‘ level  then try some of the sums in the ‘hot’ level. There is no limit to the amount of chilli challenges you can do but do try and challenge yourself! 

Try and make each number the same size.

  1. 10 – 1 =
  2. 10 – 3 =
  3. 10 – 5 =
  4. 10 – 7 =
  5. 10-9 =
  6. 10- 2 =
  7. 10-4 =
  8. 10-6 =
  9. 10-8 =
  10. 10-10=1. 20 – 2 =

2. 20 – 4 =

3. 20 – 6 =

4. 20 – 8 =

5. 20 – 10 =

6. 20 – 12 =

7. 20 – 14 =

8. 20 –  16 =

9. 20 – 18 =

10. 20 – 20 =

1. 50 –  7 =

2. 50 – 11 =

3. 50 – 13 =

4. 47 – 9 =

5. 47 – 14 =

6. 33 – 11 =

7. 39 – 14 =

8. 58 – 13 =

9. 60 – 12 =

10. 67 – 18 =

Good Morning Primary 2

Wednesday the 25th of March

Dear Primary 2,

How are you all doing today? Hope you are all well. We miss seeing all your smiley faces. Today we will be giving you some lovely learning activities so you can be busy and enjoy your day. Remember you can use your jotter we gave you to show us all the adventures you have at home. We would love to eventually see all the fantastic things you make, do and experience! 

The learning activities today are:

  •  An Exercise challenge – to get you moving
  •  A maths chilli challenge
  • A maths game – you can also login to sum dog with the login we gave you in your jotters. I know some of you have already.
  •  A writing activity
  •   Hot and cold topic work
  • A story to listen to at the end of the day.

Have a great day,

Love Miss Rai, Mrs Cheshire and Mr White

Super Science!

Before the school closed, some of the children in P2a  filmed a science demonstration! We looked at why it is so important to keep our hands clean. Watch the video and join in at home if you missed it or if you would like to have a go yourself. You can even show your family!

All you need is:

  • a bowl
  • some water
  • some pepper
  • soap

Why? Soap lowers water’s “surface tension,” causing water droplets to become weaker and break apart, rather than stick together. This is why soap is so effective in cleaning and removing germs and dirt.

SUMDOG MATHS

Remember to use your Sumdog login details (found in your homework pack/ inside your home learning jotter) to login and play Maths games for FREE!  https://pages.sumdog.com/

Well done to all those who have already logged in and had a go! We can keep track of how well you are doing and we will be able to set more challenges and tasks on Sumdog as the week goes on. If you complete them you can earn gold coins!
