Remote Learning for Week Beg: 11.1.21

I am posting the learning for next week today so that you have time to look ahead if this is helpful. This is in the Yellow Class Homework Section and I will also email it as a bulletin. I will be teaching the same content in school on the same days so that it will be easy to see where we are up to if your child is only attending school on certain days. Hope this makes sense! I will set spellings on Monday as usual and these will be in the Yellow Class Spelling Section. During the week, if there are any updates, examples of work or anything else that I think will be useful, I will post them in the Yellow Class News Section and also email them.

Many thanks, Miss Pinches

Yellow Class Remote Learning

Following the announcement last night, I will be setting home learning for you on the Yellow Homework Page. There are some ideas on there already that were set for anyone isolating but please don’t worry if you are not in a position to start home learning right away. Be kind to yourselves. I will be here to offer help and support for those of you that are not returning to school tomorrow and there will be a more structured plan for next week including opportunities to join us on Microsoft Teams.

Take care, missing you already, Miss Pinches

Yellow Class Home Learning Week Beg: 4.1.21

You may like to start with a Supermovers routine! We have been using these in school to keep active as we learn and there is a great variety of topics covered.

Maths: Revise dividing by 2 with these worksheets.

Dividing by 2

Revise finding odd and even numbers

Odd and even numbers

Work through these reasoning and problem solving exercises, they become more challenging as you progress so you may like to be selective.

Year-2-Spring-Block-1-Step-4-RPS-Odd-and-Even-Numbers

If you have time this week, try to work on learning your times tables. You all have logins for Times Table Rockstars but the following link is also great as you can print out your own worksheets and there are options for you to choose the times tables and the number of questions.

English: Listen to the story of Otto the Book Bear. The author then shows you how she illustrates her character so you might like to have a go at this too!

Can you retell the story of Otto in your own words? You might like to plan this out in picture form first so that you make a story map but this is up to you!

In class this week, we will also be focusing on words ending with ‘est’ and ‘ture’

Have a go at the following worksheet.

Spelling

Science

How are sounds made?

Please remember that we will be filming our part for the Christmas Play this Thursday. The children can come to school in their costume. This can be a nativity costume of your choice or a Christmas jumper/top with your choice of skirt or trousers. Please bring a pair of trainers with you for the Santa Dash if your footwear is not suitable.
