Good morning everyone.

Hope you are safe and well.

For Literacy our sound this week is ‘wh‘. Wh is a red sound. Can you tell a grown up which part of the mouth you use to make wh? Can you think of 4 things that begin with wh?

Here are some ideas, whiz, wheel, whale, white, whisper, whisk, whip. Can you think of any question starters that begin with wh?

In your jotter draw 4 things that begin with wh, try to write what you have drawn. Then pick 2 of your pictures and write two  sentences, for example,

A wheel is on a car.

or

I like whip cream.

This activity is part of your new home learning grid so you can do it at a time that works best for you and your family. If you haven’t already see the grid it is in the post below.

Pop back at 10am to see more about our new topic Fairyland.

Good morning everyone!

I hope you all had a lovely long weekend 🙂

Here is a new Home Learning Grid from myself and Mrs Docherty.  You can work through the activities in your own time, over the next two weeks.

Literacy

This morning I would like you to practise sentence writing.  I would like you to practise spelling, punctuation and using descriptive language to describe the pictures below.

Everyone should remember capital letters at the start and full stops at the end!

For a challenge you could try using commas in a list (,), exclamation marks (!) and connectives (joining words).

The fluffy puppy was ready to play.

The puppy was fluffy, cute, playful and very loving.

The adorable puppy was tired out because she had been for a long walk.

Good morning boys and girls.

Today Jigsaw Jack would like you to make a healthy snack. Can you spread with a table knife? Can you chop some soft foods like a banana or some cheese by making a bridge with your fingers, using a table knife.

Watch the videos below to help you

This one is about spreading

Some foods you can tear here is a little video to help you

Now watch this one about cutting using the bridge and claw

Once you have made your healthy snack send us a picture into the email address

Have a nice weekend, remember Monday 18th is a holiday so we will see you all back here on Tuesday morning ready for some more learning activities 🙂 Have a nice break away from working super hard.

Good morning

Today I have another scavenger hunt for you, good luck!

Literacy

I would like you to invent your own superhero!  What do they look like?  What is their superpower?  Where do they live?

Remember to draw a picture and send it to the class email.

Health and Wellbeing

Look in the mirror and give yourself 5 compliments, for example I am kind, I am brave.

Hope you have a lovely weekend and stay safe!

Good afternoon boys and girls

For maths today following on from yesterdays sequencing use your number line again put the numbers in the correct order. Once you have done that

1. get an adult to remove a number(s) from your number line. Which number(s) are missing?
2. Point to number two numbers and you can say what number is in-between. For example point to 5 and 7, the number in-between would be 6.

For topic this afternoon can you research where some tropical fruits come from. Where are bananas grown? Where does the coco come from to make chocolate? You can use siri or google to ask your device or ask a grown up.  Once you have found out send us an email to let us know 🙂

Have a great day

Good morning everyone,

Hope you are all safe and well.

This morning for Literacy we would like you to do the next page in your sentence book. In Education City there are two games for you to play one on the ‘th’ sound and another called the Pet Shop to help you to build sentences. Have a go.

For Science, this weeks challenge is to make a boat. Please do this lesson, as next week there will be a more complicated boat to make that should be lots of fun. So make sure we do this one to get out boat building skills up.
