Mrs Dobbie

Good morning everybody and welcome to a new week! This week I am in school, so you will need to bear with me at times and be patient. I will try to do our live lessons as usual. Here is the plan for today: Daily Plan – Mon 22nd Feb 2021

Let’s start our day with the Joe Wicks session – https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=pe+with+joe

 

I have now put another 1 or 2 new books in your Reading Group Booklists: https://online.raintree.co.uk/login/index.html. Some books are longer so will take the groups longer to read.

There will be a live check in around 9:30 with me on Teams.

 

Numeracy

L/I To multiply numbers.

S/C I can show my knowledge of my times tables by completing the assessment to the best of my ability.

Task: This week we are starting a new topic of multiplication. I would like to start by giving you a little assessment to see which of your tables you know and which you are maybe still unsure of – please just try your best and try to do this without any help as it will give me a better picture of what you know and what you still need to learn.

In Class Materials- Mrs Hillan in the files section you will find your Multiplication activity. Please put your completed sheet or the sums on paper into your folder in the files section once you have finished.

Numeracy – 2,5,10 x table assessment – Mon 22nd Feb

 

11:00 –

Below is your Reading task to do after watching the next video of me reading the next chapter of Mr Stink. The video is in the Class Materials- Mrs Hillan folder, but here is the youtube link also in case you have problems accessing it: https://youtu.be/xnObsUnoliI

Task:

L/I To create an illustration.

S/C I can use my knowledge of what I have heard to make a detailed illustration of a key part of my novel.

Task: Complete an illustration for another part of the story. You can use the Illustrator sheet in ‘Class Materials – Mrs Hillan’ folder or just draw it on a piece of paper/jotter. Remember to make this detailed and connected to a part we have read so far and also to say WHY you picked this part to draw. Once you have completed this, please put your illustration into your folder in the Files Section. If you wish you could also do one for one of the other books you have been reading just now, like your group reader.

If you finish this task before lunch time, you can use Mr Stink, your Group Reading book or even a book you are reading for enjoyment at home and try the Clarifying Task that we did before. The sheet is in our folder for you to use or to help you. You can just record this on a piece of paper or your jotter then upload into your folder.

We will catch up at 12:15 to see how we are all getting on.

Illustrator Task – Reading – Mon 22nd Feb

Hello everyone, Mrs Lockhart here again. Hope you are all well.

Today you can find your work for Mrs Dobbie in her folder in class materials. Mrs Dobbie is working in school today so might not be able to have a check in. Keep an eye on the Teams chat to find out.

I will meet with you in a check in at 11.00 and again after lunch at 1.30 for a live catch up (no dictation this week). All your work for the day from me is in the Class Materials folder dated Thursday 18.2.21. We are covering RME /French with Mrs Dobbie, maths digital time, a reading task from a non – fiction book and a poem for enjoyment.

Don’t forget it is good to have regular brain breaks and to get some fresh air.

I have written down times to try and help with organisation but feel free to move things around or do them later if that’s easier.

8.55 Mrs Dobbie’s activities

BREAK 10.30 – 10.45

11.20 Maths Task – Time

There is a lot of work today on digital times. It is a self- correcting activity. Please do the task first before you look at the answers and correct any errors. Remember we learn from our mistakes.

So complete the worksheets

t2-m-4202-five-minute-digital-times-differentiated-activity-sheets_ver_6 

Play the Reveal the Picture powerpoint in the files too.

Also watch this How long is a Quarter of an Hour? video

https://www.bbc.co.uk/teach/class-clips-video/maths-ks1-ks2-how-long-is-quarter-of-an-hour/zhgnvk7

Cut out the following shapes a square, a circle and a rectangle. Then fold once (in half) and then once again to make a quarter. Colour the quarter. Can you see the why it’s called quarter past and quarter to in time work?

Remember to continue playing the time game to demonstrate your knowledge. You can make it trickier by changing the instructions.

Why don’t you? – take a photo of your scores and share it with me in your folder. Try to get a PB that means a personal best.

We are joining them on the last session unfortunately.

This is a resume of what it is about:

“Do you like spending time outdoors? Need some ideas to get you learning outdoors?

Join us for an introduction to Green Gym. Alice and Lindsay will set weekly challenges and give you some hints and tips for getting outdoors. Each week we will set you a challenge to be completed outdoors.

We want to see how you get on, so we ask that you create a photo collage or short video to show us what you get up to on your outdoor adventures! Preferably no images of individuals faces.

Adults should attend and should accompany children outdoors. Please check all videos and images before children send them.”
