p5 Tasks for Wednesday

Wednesday 01/04/2020

If you feel that this is not enough there is more work in the “extra work” folder in Team Files.

You choose how and when to do your tasks.  Tasks can be done either in the assignments tab, class notebook, in a document which you email to me or you can just do it in a jotter and either send me a picture or ask someone at home to look at it and give you some feedback.  You can do your work anytime that suits you, and in any order you like.  However, if you need my help I will only be available during school hours.

Literacy:

Spelling – diacritical marking using all 10 of your spelling words (you could use a coloured pencil/pen for the marks)

Grammar – Collective Nouns pg18-19 Tudor and Stuart

Maths – Find a fraction of a number book 2a pg102 find a fraction of…

Topic – Make a model of a medieval siege weapon.  It could be a siege tower, a trebuchet, a catapult or any other weapon you learned about in your research on Monday.  If you didn’t do any research on Monday then I suggest you do some before you start.  You may wish to look at your notes from Monday to remind you of what you learned.  We will take 2 afternoons to work on these so don’t rush.  You can make a simple catapult out of a piece of card and a pencil (!) but you can use whatever materials you have around the house: lego, cereal boxes, lollipop sticks, clean yogurt pots, paper, kitchen paper rolls etc.

Here are some website links to give you some ideas to get started:

To all my P2 children

Just a little thank you to all the parents who posted comments to let me know how the children are getting on.  It was really nice to hear from you.  Well done to all the children who are working hard and continuing to focus on their learning.

On the P2 Weekly timetable for this week, there are lots of additional information and links for online sites.  I have also uploaded activities on Education City.

Remember children, mummies and daddies are keeping in touch with me letting me know how hard you are working, so remember to listen to mums and dads and work hard.

However, please mums and dads don’t worry if the children do not want to do all the activities, or they are working really quickly through them.  Hopefully the extra activities and information I’ve sent will help to keep them going or encourage them into learning.

Missing you all, take care and stay safe.

Best wishes

Ms Gavin

On Wednesday we will need this knowledge for a follow-up crafty activity so find out as much as you can – just focus on what interests you the most! You could also watch some Youtube videos.

If you come across words in the video you don’t know; look them up!  The only way we can learn is by not knowing something to begin with!
