Home Learning Week Beg: 23.3.20

Here are a few ideas for this week. This is not intended to be prescriptive so please feel free to only use anything that you find useful.

1. Set up a routine that works for your family and display the times as a way of teaching telling the time. It is amazing how some children in Yellow will tell me that they can’t tell the time and yet are always the first to tell me off if I don’t take them out for the Daily Mile at 2:30pm on the dot! You know who you are!

2. Start with one of these quick English starters: Write down as many words as you can think of that start with an m and end with an s. Year 3 could check the spelling of the two longest words they think of in the dictionary. Have the children thought of any adjectives? e.g marvellous or mischievous. Play hangman using words from their spelling list. Print out a Year 2 Common Exception Word word search or a Year 3-4 Statutory Spelling List word search pack from Twinkl.

3. English: either complete a task from the pack or some work on spelling and handwriting. On Monday, this could be a spelling test and some time spent looking at the new spellings for the week. The children could write the words using a different colour for each letter, write each word in a silly sentence, make the words using magnetic letters etc.

4. Break

5. A quick maths starter: Find as many ways as you can to make 45 e.g. 40+ 5 or 9 x 5. Continue this number sequence 20, 22, 24…. or 6, 12, 18….

6. Complete a maths activity from the pack or go on espresso>K.S.1 Maths>Addition and Subtraction>Activities or go on Times Table Rock Stars.

7. Lunch and playtime

8. Reading

9. You might like to try drawing or painting your family, the view from your window or your favourite animals. Twinkl have some nice Mindfulness colouring sheets. You might like to start making an Easter or Spring garden. This could be outside, out of Lego or in an old shoebox using materials that you have available. Later in the week I will try to post some more topic suggestions.

Best Wishes to you all, Miss you already. Miss Pinches

Learning at Home

Dear Parents, I will be sending home today a pack of work for your child to complete at their own pace if they are not attending school. For Year 2 there is a pack aimed at helping them to prepare for their end of  K.S.1 assessments. I have included  an answer booklet for you to look at if you wish or I am happy to mark the children’s work when school reopens to all. For Year 3, I have enclosed some Maths and English activities. I have also sent extra reading books and would encourage you to continue to hear your child read for at least 15 minutes every day, if possible. I will continue to post spelling lists as it is important that the children continue to learn these words and to spell them correctly in their writing. By the end of the year, Year 2 should know their 2, 5 and 10 times tables and Year 3 should know their 2, 3, 4, 5, 8 and 10 times tables. I would therefore highly recommend using Times Table Rockstars to support them with this. I have sent home reminders of their logins today. The website timestable.me.co.uk is free to users and provides online games and worksheets that can be printed out. I will continue to post advice and information on our website. Best Wishes to all our pupils and their families. Miss Pinches

Homework 4.3.20

Yellow homework

In the national curriculum there is a focus on reading and learning poetry ‘by heart’. Homework this week is to select and learn a poem by heart to be performed in front of the class.  The class teacher and T.As will listen to their polished entries on Monday 23rd March and the best ten from each class will perform their poem to the rest of the key stage on Wednesday 25th March. We will then select the best 4/5 from each class in the school to perform their poems to the whole school in a poetry competition on Wednesday 1st April. Parents will be invited to this event. Your child will receive a letter detailing this homework on Friday 6th March.

World Book Day in Yellow Class

We have been inspired by the book ‘ The King Who Banned The Dark’ by Emily Haworth-Booth.

World Book Day

We had a great day creating drama, dipping peppermint creams in chocolate, making crowns and doing some art work.
