Firstly read your reading book for about thirty minutes. (You could do this outside in the shade.) Then practise your visualization skills by drawing a detailed picture (full page in your jotter) of your favourite scene. Again you could do this outside in the shade.
Extension:(only if you have time):
Finish any other unfinished work or go on to Sumdog spellings.
After Lunch
Personal Project
Continue with your research and make notes in your own words, in your jotter. You can use reference books, for example, encyclopedias and atlases, the internet, newspapers and magazines or personal interviews.
Good morning boys and Girls, I hope you are ready for another week of home learning. Hopefully you all enjoyed the weather over the weekend and maybe got to finally meet up with some friends or family.
Let’s start off with a Monday morning assembly from the crew at Fischy Music. I have attached the link for last week’s assembly but, with the help of an adult you can follow the link to find this weeks’ (week 11).
Reading

‘No Tricks, Gran’
Before reading have a think about a few questions.
What is your prediction for the story?
Who do you think will be the main characters in the story?
What do we already know about Gran?
What do you think has happened to Gran’s arm?
With the help of an adult, have a read through the story. Before you start think about all the things a good reader does, can you share them with an adult?
Once you have read the book have a go at the play activities 1 and 2.
You can choose an activity from your home learning guided reading grid or perhaps why not draw a scene from the story and add in some more speech bubbles. Think about what the characters in the background might be saying or thinking in each picture.
Finally, log onto Educationcity and I have added a game called ‘The Pet Shop’ where you have to listen to a sentence then put the words in order.
Phonics
Our new sound this week is ‘j’. Here is a short clip to help introduce the sound to you.
Can you think of any other words which start with the j sound?
Here are some slides, can you identify the j word?
j can be a tricky letter to make sure it is facing the correct direction. Have a look at the slide below and see how quickly you can identify each letter. Think about how different each of them look. Try not to get tricked out!
Have a go at writing these J words. Have an adult read them out to you, can you hear each of the sounds to help you write the word? Draw a picture to go with each word you spell.
j – a -m j – a – r j – ee – p j – e – t j – u – m – p
j- u – g j – u – n – k
Finally, I have added a new game to Educationcity called ‘Jumping Jelly’. Good luck and have fun!
Numeracy and Maths
Daily Ten
We are going to keep a focus on revising topics we have covered so far this year.
Double 3
Double 2
What day was yesterday?
What month are we in at the moment?
How many days are in this month?
10 – ___ = 7
10 – ___= 5
10 – ___= 10
5+6 =
4+5 =
Number Talks
Have another go at recognising what number is being represented on the rekenrek. You can write them down or shout them out. see if you can do it without counting… Good luck.

Dot Patterns
Here is another dot pattern number talk for you to have a go with.
Finally, I have set up another challenge on Sumdog, revising the properties of 2D shapes. Have fun!
Health and Well-being
When someone helps me, I feel………?
Can you finish the sentence? It’s nice when someone helps you or shows that they care. I’m challenging you to do one thing a day, that helps someone. Maybe it’s make your brother’s bed or fetch your sister a snack, maybe it’s even just giving someone a compliment. Showing kindness and compassion towards others is so important especially in the world just now! Here are some examples below, some you will be unable to do just now but don’t worry even one little act of kindness can brighten someones day.
Have a great day everyone! I’ll see you tomorrow on the blog.
Maths: Finish money first and then move onto measure. I think all 4 parts of TJay 2a Chapter 13 (a,b,c and d) are useful. This will help support your work on decimals to 3 places. If you have finished these you could do TJay 2a revision work on decimals: Chapters 5 and 7
I don’t think we have fully realised the potential of HotPotatoes. If you have not tried it, please do.
I also don’t think anyone has finished “Education City”.
We have to do maths, literacy (language) and health every day. We can, of course, do other areas of the curriculum as well. How we do them is up to us. I think these unusual times have given us the opportunity to use some unusual teaching and learning techniques. I think Devon and Zoey have been using “TikTok” to create their photos of themselves for “Teams”. Could we do something with “TikTok”?
Have fun, take care and hope you had a good weekend!
I hope you all had a brilliant day yesterday and managed to enjoy the sunshine and ice- cream (if you made some?) Some activities for you to complete today.
Activity 1- th sound
L.I. to understand that 2 letters can make 1 sound
S.C. I can blend this sound with other sounds to read words
S.C. I can spell words with this sound
S.C. I can create a sentence
For today’s phonics activity I would like you to use the interactive game below from eduactioncity to help consolidate the th sound. Enjoy!
Also can you create a sentence by putting the words below in the correct order?
Also please check that you have complete all the th sheets from your home learning pack. Enjoy!
Activity 2 – Maths Measure
L.I. to measure using non-standard units
S.C. I can use my feet to measure a variety of objects
I would like you to complete Measuring using your feet, Page 9 from you Home Learning Pack. You may not have the objects that it is asking you to measure so why not get inventive and measure things in your room/house or in the garden The important thing is to use your feet to measure. Remember Heel to Toe when measuring. Challenge – can you find an object and estimate how many feet long it is then measure it using your feet. How accurate was your estimation?
Activity 3 – /hp/
L.I. to count a collection
S.C. I can use one-to-one correspondence to count a given number
I would like you to turn to Counting to 20 home activity 6 from your home learning pack. Try activity 1 – collect 20 pegs/counters etc. and make number cards 11-20 , lay them face down on the table, turn one over and count out that many e.g. if you turn over a card with 15 then count out 15 pegs/counters etc. You can challenge yourself by increasing the cards to 30 or 40 (make sure you have that many objects to count) Enjoy!Then complete the next part of the page how many apples? and draw……… apples. TopTip– remember when counting the apples it may be a good idea to cross them off so you don’t count them twice or not at all.
Activity 4 – Art and Crafts
L.I. to use a range of media creatively
S.C. I can use my fingerprints to create an effect
As it is Friday, I thought you might like to try a little art activity. Below is a picture of a tree, a very personal tree. It is personal because the person who painted it used their fingerprints to create foliage. So why not try to make your own personal tree. Firstly, you need to draw the trunk and branches (as below, you may need a little help) then using your finger tips dip them in print (Make sure you don’t use too much or you won’t see the lines of your finger prints) and lastly decorate the tree with them. Enjoy! Alternatively you could use different shades of green and create a background for your tree.
Have a fantastic weekend. Take care and stay safe and I will post more activities on Monday.
Good morning P3, I hope you all have had a great week!! Here are some learning ideas for you to enjoy;
