The Eatwell Guide

 

Maybe today as part of your Healthy Body topic you could design and make a healthy lunch snack. For mine I am going to have a chicken salad with lettuce, spring onion, tomato, chicken, gherkins, sweetcorn and diced beetroot. Do you think I have a balanced plate of food? If you would like to share your creation add it to your One Note profile or let me know in the comments section.

 

 

How are you getting on with Hit the Button: what is your highest score?

 

In your literacy can you add suffixes to your spelling words. Did you have to double the last letter, did you have to drop a letter to add your suffix? Don’t forget about those long and short vowels when deciding what to do. You could share this on you One Note Profile too.

Can you think about what makes our Education special as part of our weekly Right: You Have the Right to an Education. You could write a sentence or draw a picture to show this.

Have a great day everyone and please know I am here if you need anything. Enjoy your learning and don’t forget to share it with us.

Mrs Docherty

Self-Assessment

We are going to use our Growth mindset this week to help us self-assess our learning.

If you are ‘stuck’ or need help, remember the importance of the word YET!

“I can’t do this…yet!”

This means we never give up and keep trying!  Watch this Sesame Street video about “The Power Of Yet”.

Literacy

The skill we were working on was editing. Have a look at the story below with the mistakes corrected.  Also I have added my ending.

One day I was in my Grandma’s garden playing.  My Grandma has a little wood at the bottom of her garden and I am not allowed to go in there.  Today I broke the rule and I went in it.  Behind some very thick bushes I could see a very old door.  I slowly turned the handle of the door and opened it.  I could not believe my eyes. I could see a small beautiful wild garden.  In the middle of the garden there was a huge strong tree.  Hanging from one of the branches was an old wooden swing.  I love swings so I tested it for strength and once I was sure I would not break I played all day on it.  It was such a magical day.

Numeracy

Have a look at the worksheet below for the estimates of where the numbers would be on the number line, how close were your estimates?

Have a lovely weekend everyone.

How are you getting on with the tongue-twisters? My family are all having a go at saying them and we end up laughing because we keep muddling up our words. This is part of the fun.
