Rabbits – Home learning for 10th June

Good morning – is it really the 10th of June already?

Maybe this morning you should start with a big THANK YOU! to whoever is working with you doing your on-line schooling – Mum or Dad, big sister or brother or maybe you are on your own?  Well take a minute to say thank you to anyone who is helping you.

So on with the work:  Here is a little starter activity to get your gray cells working!  Alphabetical Order – Alphabetical order

English:  Again, stick with bitesize if you prefer, or continue with your work towards creating a story. You should have some ideas on character, plot and today you are ready to write out your first ideas.

Plan the first paragraph with the following things:

  • Setting – where it is – what does your setting look like?
  • What will be happening?  What characters need to be in the first part of the story?
  • Use some fronted adverbial phrases, (later that day, first thing that morning, slowly and steadily ….)

Maths:  here are the lessons for today on white rose – you could also look on My Maths if you fancy a change!

Project:  I know that you have had some amazing ideas for your own sports event.  Today, I would like you to design your own sports uniform (strip) or clothing that is needed for your sport.  You can make a logo that goes with it.  This link might help if you are struggling to draw people.  Design your sports kit    Sports people drawing templates

Reading:  There are three different levels of tasks in this reading activity – select one that you find suitable for your interests:  The subject is the Paralympians. Reading Task for Year 2 and 3  

I look forward to seeing your designs and ideas for new sports.

Stay happy!

Rabbits – home learning for 9th June

Good Morning Rabbits

I hope you are all well.  Maybe you are doing the Jo Wicks work-out each day?  I have been doing it on some of the days – it is quite a challenge!  I have also been doing Yoga and going on a long walk each day to stay fit.  Let me know what you are doing – bike riding, sailing, running.

Spellings:  the words are tricky this week but worth learning as they all fit with the theme of sports.

English:  You can either access the bbc bitesize lesson today – or you can continue with the plans for a story and look at the attachment for creating a character profile.

Character Profile

It is always fun to imagine your own story characters and to plan what they would be like and what they would do.  Use this sheet to help gather up your wonderful ideas.

Maths:  I have set some daily work on my maths if you are happy to follow that programme, but here are the tasks for today on the Whiterose – more fractions for both year 2 and year 3.

Year 2 lesson 2 answers

Year 2 Lesson 2 maths

Year 3 lesson 2 answers

year 3 lesson 2 maths

Project:  Yesterday, I asked you to create a front page for the project and design a sports pitch using your fractions.  Today, I would like you to make up a sports game all of your own.  You can then set out the rules of the game using bullet points, and the purpose of the game.  Please include the following things in your planning list or mind map.

  • A pitch, surface, field or court where the game is played
  • The number of players that are in each team
  • The bat, club or other thing that is used to hit the ball (or whatever object they hit)
  • A ball or object to hit
  • A goal of some type
  • You need a good name for your sport and then you can write out the rules that you decide.

Remember:  J K Rowling made up the game of Quidditch for her Harry Potter books.  Here is a short clip for you to watch:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1A6z7R-aaDw

Other authors have made up sports in their books:  Can you find out the name of the race in Alice in Wonderland?  use this to help:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j8MUMO1RJws

I hope you have fun inventing a new sport!

See you tomorrow

Mrs Cooke

Dragonfly Class Thursday 14th May

Good morning all,

So here’s today’s “throwback” to things we’ve been up to in Dragonfly Class this year…

There was a special sequence of lessons we did learning all about a very talented French scientist who kept a jar of radium by her bedside each night. Little did she realise how deadly this nightlamp would prove to be! She led medical science in a treatment for cancer and was most definitely a ‘woman who changed the world’. Have you guessed who she is yet? I remember this unit of work very fondly from autumn term where many of you were captivated by this real-life superhero’s story and produced some brilliant biographies. I’m talking, of course, about Marie Curie!

Here’s today’s learning activities:

I hope you’re having a good week; I’ve been busy doing school work and looking through some of the things we’ve done so far this year – it’s brought lots of smiles to my face! One of my highlights: JELLYBEAN MATHS DAY! I can just see your faces when you walked into class to find hundreds and thousands of jelly beans!

Nicky in the office looked just as delighted and earned herself a treat bag! I can honestly say I haven’t eaten jelly beans since but might treat myself to some next time I’m shopping…! What special day in Dragonfly Class pops up for you?
