Rabbits – Home Learning for 19th May

Good Morning Rabbits

I hope you had fun thinking about food yesterday!

English:  Please do the bitesize lesson today.  www.bbc.bitesize/homelearning

Maths:  Here are the links for the maths lessons for today.

Reading:  I have selected another set of reading comprehensions related to food – these are for you to practice your comprehension and reading skills.   Viking Food and Cooking Questions               Viking Food and Cooking

Project:  To continue our project today I am going to get you to design a menu for your own restaurant.  This should be simple enough – except … I need you to write out a perfectly beautiful menu with your very best handwriting. You need to include starters or small portions of food, a main course and some puddings or dessert.  Ideally, you will write about 4 or 5 items for each.  I have included some menu blanks to use – or you can design your very own.  This is a handwriting task to begin with.

Food Borders

Design: I now want you to get thinking about pasta.  Pasta is an Italian food made from flour, eggs and water (and a bit of salt) but they make it into amazing shapes.  I would like you to look at this page of different pastas and then design your own shape.  This needs to be something that is personal to you – for example – I like Angels and Eagles so I might make wing-shaped pasta.  You could think about your favourite things and design the shape then create a picture of the pasta (so you need to repeat the design several times).  If you were able – you could even try to make your own pasta – recipe and method is included.

pasta pictures

I would like you to do a little bit of maths – imagine that you are preparing a plate full of your fabulous pasta for yourself and your family – how many of the pieces would you need?  You need to work out how large they are – and then work out how many would fit onto a plate.  If you draw around a plate – then draw your pasta shape and cut it out, then work out roughly how many times it will fit on the plate.

Rabbits Home Learning for 18th May

Good Morning Rabbits.  I hope you all had a lovely weekend.  I spent time in my garden doing some reading and I was lucky enough to get out and about on some very nice walks in the sunshine.  I hope you all had some fun too.

I have a new project idea for you this week – more about that later.

English:  The www.bbc.bitesize/homelearning is the place to be for their excellent lessons.  Please log in today.

Maths:  I have put up the White Rose maths for each year group below.  I have also included the answers – but don’t cheat! Each year group has a page showing video links to explain the tasks.  These are for the whole week of lessons.

Year-3 Video Links

Project:  This week’s project is going to be about food.  We will be looking at where you eat, what you eat, what you can cook, how we present and package food and how restaurants work.

Food Glorious Food:  this is a famous song from the musical Oliver but it is used in this lovely clip from Ice Age 2 – have a little look at the video and listen carefully to the words.

Your first task is to think about alliteration – which is using the same sound at the start of different words.  Blue Bucket,  Frilly Fairy – etc. I would like you to think about the foods I have listed below and add a word that describes it – but uses the same starting letter (or sound – for example c and k make the same sound)

cheese  apples  bananas  grapes  milk  pomegranate  cabbage  sausages  burgers  spaghetti  broccoli  yoghurt

See how you get on!

Reading:  The attached files have 3 levels of reading – * ** and *** for you to select.  They are all about Fairtrade – Reading Activities Y 2 and 3

Project:  I would like you to plan a design for your own place to eat – you might like to brainstorm all the places that you currently eat – at home, in the garden (picnics and bar-b-q’s) or maybe you get take-away food.  We also eat in odd places such as on boats, in caravans, in our school hall.  If you can remember when we were all able to go to restaurants and cafes, you could think about designing your own wonderful eating place.  You need to sort the following categories:

  • Type of food you will sell
  • Type of people (or animals) that will eat at your eatery
  • Type of seating they will need – be adventurous!
  • Type of plates, cutlery or other things from which they can eat
  • What you will call your eatery.

You could use a whole piece of paper for your brainstorming, you could add cut out pictures of things that inspire you – or you can draw your ideas – gather as much information as you can to continue this later in the week.

You can design this however you wish – but remember that during the week we will be building on this and will be looking at making menus, designing a logo and packaging and making unique dishes.

I have added a few pictures from pintrest that might help with your inspiration if you need it.

Home Learning for Rabbits – Friday 15th May

Good Morning Rabbits – and Whoopee it is Friday!

For this morning’s work – I am going to ask you to continue your flying project with another task.  You will have a bit of maths to do for this and also some English.

Project:  Yesterday, I asked you to make a map of the places your favourite flying character would go.  I hope you have had fun doing this.

Firstly, you can now do some maths work that adds up the length of time the journey took.  If you wrote the times down on your map this will be easier  if not, you can either look at the website to time the journey or have a good guess.

You need to draw up a table and enter the timings into the table in the correct columns.

Mrs Cooke’s Flying Flamingo Journey

This is a bit of a ‘tricky’ maths task – but do your best – I know you can all do this!  If you struggle a little – have a look at this page to help you.  Counting Time

Once you have that completed, you can get to work on your own ‘Flying Adventures of ……….’ and I would love you to do another comic strip to chart the adventures of your creature or machine.  Draw pictures of the locations they visited, and a short text for each drawing about what they saw there.

English:  The BBC Bitesize have another lovely class for you today.

Maths: Please do the TT Rockstars and I have also included a maths times table activity for you to do afterwards.  https://go.educationcity.com/mycity#/view/939253/

If I have fuddled your brains with the counting of time – please don’t worry.  I hope that you have had fun time with your flying project.

Please remember to be kind and helpful to your family and to have a lovely weekend.

Rabbits Home Learning for Thursday 14th May

Good morning Rabbits.  Thank you for sending in your work from Tuesday and Wednesday.  Keep it coming!

Project:  I wanted you to do some maths and drawing as part of your project today – I would like you to firstly select your favourite flying object as this will be your ‘main character’ for the game.  It can be anything that flies.

Your flying character is going on a journey.  You will need:  the picture of the world map that is attached.  A pencil and paper; a lot of imagination!

Your character is going to fly to different locations across the world and land there.  Your job is to measure how far they have travelled and then do a dotty map of where their journey took them.  It might start in Shropshire and a dotted line will take them all the way to Southern France – then on to Morocco or over to Egypt – or you could do a different journey and go to the North.  The important thing is that you draw the journey out and name what cities or towns (or famous locations) your flying character has visited.

https://geology.com/world/world-map.shtml

Now in order to measure distance – you can use this handy website.  It asks you to type in the starting location and then the end location and it gives you the miles. You will have to write the days or hours journey time on your line and at the end, you will have to try to add it all up- but don’t do that just yet!

https://www.freemaptools.com/how-far-is-it-between.htm

(change the sliding button to miles not km)

You can have some fun selecting amazing places that your flying object could visit – I have also included this website as it shows the 7 wonders of the world – you might think your character would visit some of these – or visit countries that you have already been to – or heard about.

https://www.history.com/topics/ancient-history/sevens-wonders-of-the-ancient-world

https://www.cntraveller.com/gallery/seven-wonders-of-the-world

Spelling Test:  Yes, it’s that time again!  Have a look at the page on Spellings and see if you can circle the correct spelling please.  Good luck.

Maths:  I have the lesson for today attached: Y3  Lesson 4 Scaling 2019

y2 lesson 4

English:  Once again please use the BBC Bitesize.

I think that is enough for today!  I have set you a lot of work for the project today and it should be interesting to find out all about the 7 wonders of the world.  If you would like more to do – here is a reading task about two of those places.

Some Rabbit Flying Machines!

Here are the various designs and plans for Rabbit class’s own flying machines (and Sophia has also made her own paper plane with her big brother).  They are so inventive.  Well done Harrison, Amber, Lucy and Andreas.  Lucy has included this wonderful youtube clip of her flying carrot.  I can see Lucy is headed for a career in Science!

Rabbits – Home learning for 13th May

Good Morning Rabbits.  How are you all today?  I hope you are all up and ready for some work this morning!

Spellings:  Please go over your spelling words again today.  You should have some sentences written out, today you should work on writing out the words without looking – and checking to see if you got them right.  I will put a test for you on Thursday.

Handwriting: Please copy out this short piece of writing – it can then be put in your project for this week as it is about flying.

There is no doubt that flying had a huge effect on Roald Dahl’s life in many ways. Firstly, he discovered a new passion, which in a letter sent to his mother during his flying training in 1939 he described as “marvellous fun”. Not only did flying seemingly set Roald Dahl’s imagination in motion, but it also worked its way into his stories.

English:  Please check in with the BBC Bitesize for English today.

Maths:  Here are the tasks for year 2 and year 3 from WhiteRose Maths.

Year 3:  Lesson 3 Divide 2-digits by 1-digit (2) 2019

y2 lesson 3

Project:  I would like you to write a poem about the theme “Up Up and Away!”  – the poem might be about flying in a balloon, or an airship, a space ship or a rocket.  It could also be written as an animal or insect that flies.  For the poem to work, you need to decide on how many words in each line – remember we did this in class when we looked at pictures of Italy and men drinking coffee in a cafe?  Decide on using 3 words per line (or 4) and write down all your ideas first.  Then select the two main points of each line – here is my idea for you to use as a starting point:

Up, up and away!

Through the clouds

Into the sun

Spreading my wings

I look down

And see home!

I dive down

And land safely.

See what other poems you can create and perhaps you can illustrate the poem.  I have also found a few ideas for a shape poem about flying:
