In the link below is a worksheet where you have to add in the Speech Marks. Re-write the sentences putting Speech Marks around the words to show when someone is talking.

For example: Liam asked Wesley, Do you want to come with us?

This would be: Liam asked Wesley, “Do you want to come with us?”

Good morning boys and girls, another week of home learning is almost complete. This morning I would like you to practice your number bonds to 10. Complete the activity below in your jotter.

In your jotter, draw three different things that happening in your story (events). Try to write a sentence to describe your pictures. Remember capital letters, finger spaces and full stops.

Have a lovely weekend. Remember to stay safe at home and to wear sun cream if the weather stays sunny. Enjoy and speak to you on Monday. Mrs Reid!

Good afternoon everyone! Here are some activities for this afternoon

ART

This afternoon can you create a picture of some spring flowers? You can use anything you have at home – pens, crayons, paint, twigs/leaves from the garden. Make sure you make the petals, the stem and the leaves for your flowers.

SPRING WALK

Go on a walk with your family and see if you can see any spring flowers. Try to look for any other signs of spring as you walk. Think about what you can see/hear and smell. Here is a checklist to try and find when you are walking

1. Blossom
2. Flower buds
3. Daffodils
4. Birds
5. Nest
6. Flower
7. Insect
8. Lamb
9. Green leaves
10. Any other signs of spring

Once you have completed your walk, draw all the Spring things that you saw in your jotter and label them. Colour your pictures too. Enjoy!

Good morning everyone. Hope you are enjoying the lovely weather this week. Remember to put on sun cream and a hat when you are outside in the sun.

MATHS

This morning log onto Sumdog and complete the Maths challenge that I have set for you. I will log on and see how you are getting on. Good Luck!

Remember to continue practice counting in 2s/5s/10s starting from different numbers on the 100 square. Trying counting forwards and backwards.

Try up to 1000 and beyond if you can. Ask an adult to challenge you if possible. Keep working hard.

LITERACY

Continue to practice your tricky words on your word wall with a adult everyday. Try to spell the words on your word wall to. Make your words with playdoh/pasta/sand/pen/chalk outside etc.

We were learning about rhyming words. Watch these videos to remind you of some rhyming words. You can keep fit while you watch it

Now try to write in your jotter as many words that rhyme with

1. dog
2. cat
3. bin

Try to think of words which have 4/5 letters that rhyme with these words too. Remember if words rhyme – the end of the words sound the same. Good Luck!

Your Health and  Wellbeing task for this afternoon is to take a meal you have had this week and separate the meal into the Eatwell Guide categories. In your jotter, draw the plate and then draw the ingredients used to make the meal into the correct food groups.

For example, I had Macaroni Cheese last night for my dinner. So if I separate the ingredients, it will look like this:

Pasta – carbohydrates

Cheese – dairy

Milk – dairy

Onion – fruit and vegetables

Tomato – fruit and vegetables

Garlic Bread – carbohydrates

Sunflower Oil – oil and spreads

A fun game to play! Starting from the first letter of the alphabet, name of a food beginning with the letter A. The next person then has to name a food with the letter B and so on. You can have as many players as you like!
