Daily Plans for Friday 15th January 2021

* Remember to dip into your project about a famous Victorian of your choice when you have finished an activity and have some spare time. LOOK OUT EVERY FRIDAY FOR A CLASS CHALLENGE THAT WILL BE PUT ONTO OUR CLASS BLOG BY MR MACKINNON!  THE FIRST WILL APPEAR TODAY!

MORNING

1.Punctuation activities for Thursday and Friday mornings

I have uploaded 2 Classroom Secrets punctuation activities and power point slides to accompany each activity.  One is entitled Apostrophes for Possession or Contraction and the other is Using Brackets to Indicate Parenthesis (this will consolidate work we have covered in class).  Choose one to do this morning and the other for tomorrow morning.  Answers are given.  Please complete the sheets that you normally work from.

2. Maths

1. Today we are learning about common factors. Please watch the White Rose Learning Video using the link vimeo.com/469693647 about common factors. Please remember to pause the video when you need to do calculations and give yourself plenty of time. Also remember that the answers are always given by the person who is presenting the videos. Remember to also show any of your working out. I have also uploaded the White Rose Worksheet with answers to go with the learning video.

2. I have set you a MyMaths activity about multiples and a game on Purple Mash entitled ‘Factoroids’.  Start the game at level 1 and work your way up!  Carry on with your Times Tables Rockstars.  Dip into these set activities when you finish your written work. The due date is next Friday,22.1.21

3.  English

1. Today I would like you to still continue with your story The Shilling Pie.  PLEASE DON’T FORGET TO USE PARAGRAPHS, FULL STOPS, CAPITAL LETTERS, COMMAS, SPEECH MARKS, CONJUNCTIONS AND SENTENCE OPENERS.  IF YOU CANNOT SPELL A WORD ALWAYS REMEMBER TO USE A DICTIONARY!  When you have completed your draft check that you have included the above then write it up as a final copy for me to see.  I can then ask Mrs Duncombe to put it on the Class Blog. 

2.  Continue working through your ‘Talk for Writing’ Booklet.  Now work through Activity 10:  create a passport. Read the example on page 15 that is a passport of a unicorn and then fill in the template on page 16.

AFTERNOON

4. Reading

Please remember to read independently for 40 minutes!  For your 30 minute Guided Reading Session I would like you to go over your answers with a grown up for Chapters 2 and 3 of ‘Street Child’. 

 

5. Finish any work that you have not completed this week.

6. If you have not already done so, start your project about a famous Victorian of your choice. If you have started it use this time to research some information about your famous Victorian.
