Good morning everyone.  I hope you have had a great week so far.  Here are some tasks for you to try out today:

Reception:

English – Can you describe a character from a book you are reading?  Draw me a picture of them and then use some great adjectives in your writing to write me a label/ sentence or two about them (remember an adjective is a describing word, like big, or hairy).

Maths – Here are some estimation tasks for you to try. You don’t have to do them all, these are just some examples. estimate

Topic – complete an activity from the Rainbow Fish tasks.  This will be the final week on this as we will have a new topic from next week.

Year One:

English – write a book review of a book you have just finished reading.  Remember to include the title, author and illustrator of the book; tell me briefly what it is about (look at the blurb for this), whether or not you liked it and why; and include an illustration (this could be of the cover). Remember to use capital letters, fingers spaces and full stops in your writing.

Maths – lets try some fact family work today.  fact families 1This seems to be tricky but remember you only need to use the numbers that are in the triangles to do your sums. If you don’t want to print these out, just do them in your home learning book.

Topic – complete some more of your significant individual work. This is the last week we will be on this as I will set some different topic work from next week. Can you tell me who you have chosen to find out about?

Year Two – 

English – write a book review of a book you have just finished reading. Remember to include the title, author and illustrator of the book; tell me briefly what it is about (look at the blurb for this), whether or not you liked it and why; and include an illustration (this could be of the cover). Remember to use capital letters, fingers spaces and full stops in your writing as well as joining words, try to use ‘because’, ‘so’ etc and not just ‘and’ in your writing.

Maths – lets try some fact family work today.  You can do the work in your home learning book if you don’t want to print off the worksheets. Remember that you only need to use the numbers in the triangles! fact families 2
