We are entering a new phase of school opening. The majority of children are coming to school, but some children will remain at home accessing our online learning. We are continuing to provide 5 days of work online, however some work will be marked 'school' and some will be marked 'home'. If your child is coming to school you only need to complete those activities marked home. If your child is not coming to school, the activities marked school should be completed in addition to those marked home.

 

LITERACY

1. SCHOOL

Read the story on the called The Lion Inside. Discuss the main characters. Split a piece of paper  for the lion and mouse. Compare and contrast the lion and the mouse.  How would you describe each character?  How are they described in the book? Think of questions you would like to ask these characters. Write your questions in your book. Write a character description for the mouse and the lion. You can also draw a picture of the characters.

2. SCHOOL

Read the story from yesterday. Look at the pictures with speech bubbles. How you think the characters are feeling/thinking in each picture. Record your ideas in your book. Complete the speech/ thought bubbles for each picture.

3. HOME

Read the story. What do you notice about the style of writing. Gather a list of the rhyming words to create your own rhyming word dictionary. Can you think of other words that rhyme with the ones you have found? Can you think of other rhyming pairs? Create a list to use later.

4. HOME

Read the story. Today we are looking at alliteration. Can you identify alliterative words? There is a list below for you to check how many you found. What other alliterative words you use? Create a list for use later.

5. HOME

Look at the opening stansa. Can you draw an illustration for these words?

In a dry dusty place where

the sand sparkled gold,

Stood a mighty flat rock – 

all craggy and old.

School

Thursday. 

Watch the YouTube clip about bar graphs. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3JJtQzrlCjY Then do page 1 and 2 of the differentiated worksheets. (Called ‘draw bar charts’). * is the easiest and *** is the hardest.

Friday.

Discuss with the class (or your family) what you would like to research. Will you ask people what their favourite fruit is? Or their favourite sport? On page 3 of the differentiated worksheets (called ‘draw bar charts’) write your choices in the table. For example; apple, pear, banana, orange and melon.

Ask the people in your class – by a show of hands, (or the people in your home) which is their favourite and record it in your table. Use that data to draw your bar chart. If you have crayons you can colour each bar a different colour.
