We are finishing our revision this week

by looking at both the /igh/ and /oa/

alternative spellings.  

Today you are going to be writing non-fiction sentences.

Think back to yesterday's fact-finding task. If necessary, you can go back to yesterday's page to refresh your memory.

Then, choose your 4 favourite polar bear facts.

Next, you need to think carefully about how to write your facts as 4 sentences. Make sure you say each sentence aloud to make sure it makes sense. 

As an extra challenge, try to start each sentence in a different way (i.e. not all sentences starting with Polar bears...).

As always, there is a sheet available, should you wish to use it.

Once you have finished, please ask a grown up to email your work to our class email address.

Maths:

1. Warm up your Maths brain with the BBC Supermovers warm up - Number bonds with Martin Dougan

2. Work through the PowerPoint below - make sure you pause after each question slide to give yourself chance to answer  (the answer slides follow each time).

3. Choose a worksheet to complete - there is a 1, 2 or 3 star challenge available.

If  you are unable to print the worksheets, you can view the questions on screen and write your answers on your own piece of paper.

Today we are going to think about jobs.

When you are paid to complete a job we call that employment.  Look at the video and try to work out what the people are employed to do - what is their job?

You can pause the video at any time. 

Next, complete the worksheet.

There are two to choose from.

Choose the guess the jobs worksheet or the match the jobs challenge sheet.

Ask your grown up to test you on this week's spellings.

Ask your grown up to dictate the sentences on the sheet below.  The sentences include some of the spellings we have looked at this week.

Listen carefully as they say the sentence and then write it.

Remember you can segment the sounds in the words to help

you spell them and think about the graphemes you know for the sounds.

Today you are going to be writing non-fiction sentences.

Think back to yesterday's fact-finding task. If necessary, you can go back to yesterday's page to refresh your memory.

Then, choose 6 of your favourite polar bear facts.

Next, you need to think carefully about how to write your facts.

Each fact needs to be a separate sentence.

Make sure you say each sentence aloud to make sure it makes sense. 

As an extra challenge, try to start each sentence in a different way (i.e. not all sentences starting with Polar bears...).

As always, there is a sheet available, should you wish to use it.

Once you have finished, please ask a grown up to email your work to our class email address.

Today we are going to build on our learning this week by looking at related facts.  As you work through the video and worksheet, it will show you how you can use your knowledge of number bonds to help you work out calculations of larger numbers.

As always, please use practical resources to help you.  You can draw tens sticks or use a tens frame and buttons to make the numbers.  This might help you to see how the number sentences are related.

We did look at this in the autumn term.  If you are now feeling confident with these, give the challenge sheet a try.
