Good morning Class 2,
Today I will hold a Teams meeting at 10.00 and 1.30. At 10.00 we will talk through the English task and at 1.30 we will complete a survey of our favourite pizza toppings in the class. Please look at the video below explaining today’s activities.
Maths
Warm up: Times table rockstars – between 9.00 and 9.15, I will be looking at the arena section of TT rockstars. If you are able to, can you log in at this time and play against your classmates? If not, can you challenge someone to a game in the rockslam area?

Reading
On Fiction Express I would like you to read the next chapter of your book. Or you can use the Oxford Owl website.
English
In Rudyard Kipling’s Just So stories, he tells us a story about how the leopard got his spots. Can you create your own version explaining how the jaguar got his spots? Or perhaps how the elephant get its trunk? Or how about explaining how a giraffe got its long neck? Why has a rabbit got long ears? Why is a zebra stripy? For your story try to think about:
What is special about the animal? (E.g. His long neck)
What was the giraffe like at the beginning of the story? (E.g. Has a neck a normal size)
What problem might the animal have had in the the story? (He has his neck stretched/ he can’t reach the leaves)
Who or what caused the problem? (Other animals – zebras, rhinos etc. OR wire that he got stuck in)
What could the solution to the problem be? (Some of the animals hold his feet and others hold his head and they gradually stretch him so his neck is long)
What will life be like for the giraffe at the end of the story? (Long neck can reach the high leaves)
If you are not familiar with the Just So Stories, I have added two below. You may need an adult to read them to you. I have also added a video clip which tells a story similar to the Just So Stories.
f you have a younger brother or sister, you might want to see if you can watch some CBeebies Tinga Tinga tales with them which are really similar.
D&T
We will complete this afternoon’s D&T Task as part of our Teams meeting. Can you please join the meeting with either the sheet printed out, or have the tally chart and pictogram grid drawn out. We will complete the survey as a class. Perhaps we can also survey your siblings if they are with you, to find out what the most popular pizza toppings is.
Computing
We are continuing to look at digital communication. Have a look at the powerpoint below about blogging.
Than you can explore the BBC Blue Peter blog.
Finally, can you log in to purple mash and write a brief book review for our class blog? I will need to approve all posts before they are published so your review might not appear straight away. For further details, see the last few slides of the powerpoint.
