Term 3, week 4

Outline of the learning for week beginning 24th January.

 

Welcome to the last week in January, hasn’t time flow by! We have had so much fun with Maple Class, they have been a delight to teach, full of energy and great ideas. Mrs Smallcombe will be back next Monday and I know she has missed all the children.

 

What are we learning this week…

English – We will be drafting our reports on David Attenborough. The children have had lots of fun researching him and finding out different facts. They have planned what they want to include in each section and so this week they will be starting to write and edit them.

We will also be performing our rhyming poems to each other.

Maths – We will be looking at the times tables – 5, 10 and 3. The children will be looking at how to tackle different types of problems.

We will also be looking at how to subtract amounts and give change.

Topic – We are going to be exploring hills and mountains in the UK and different activities they can be used for.

Homework learning this week…

To be handed in on Monday 31st January 2022

Maths – Log into Purple Mash. Click on games and then 2simple table toons. Explore the different games. We have been focusing on 2’s, 5’s and 10’s so far and this week we will be looking at 3’s as well.  These have not been set as 2Do’s so you will have to find them on the games page and choose the most appropriate level for you.

English Use the UK Hills and Mountains Postcard Activity Sheet to write a postcard to a friend as if you have been visiting the mountain on the front. What have you done? What did you see? How did you feel
