Below is your home learning for this week. I would like you to learn about heroes (including this very special man) this week. I hope that you are all keeping safe. Enjoy your learning and I hope that you can find a way to celebrate VE day on Friday. 

Mrs Jaynes

I will update this every week with some new tasks.

We really enjoyed drawing our pictures of a giraffe in their natural habitat. 

We've enjoyed reading a book in Global Learning called There's A Boy Just Like Me. 

We enjoyed our For and Against discussion in English. 

In Maths we've enjoyed learning about halves and quarters. 

Some of us enjoyed our handwriting practice of the alphabet.

In maths we have been learning about addition and division (grouping and sharing). 

We also enjoyed interhouse this week! 

We are looking forward to Koinonia Friday and getting to show our work to our parents. 

We are also excited for half term and what we learn about afterwards. 

I enjoyed doing maths. We have been doing multiplication by repeated addition on a number line and grouping. 

I enjoyed English, writing what we did at Grafham Water. 

I enjoyed doing times tables this week. 

I have enjoyed RE and learning a bit about Arabic. 

We have enjoyed mind-up. 

We have been reading a bit of our new book called ‘The Yucky Duck Rescue’. We’ve been looking at different types of ducks and we wrote some sentence about the pictures of the ducks.

We’ve been learning about different types of water and sewer systems. We’ve been learning about toilets, poo and wee.

In reading we’ve been learning about a poem called ‘My Teacher Ate My Homework’. We’ve been learning the verses.

With Mrs Dunford we looked at how we can water plants without us needing to be there.

When we were with Mrs Dunford we were reusing things that you put in food waste. There was a man who showed us lots of different things to do with them. For example, the ends of an onion can be planted to grow new onions, with leaks the white bit can be put in compost to regrow leaks, the top of a carrot can be chopped off to regrow carrot leaves and eventually the carrot. 

We have been making our Christmas hats. We all liked decorating them too. 

In maths we've been doing some take away and addition using big jumps and small jumps on a number line.

On Monday we did an English book quiz and we had to read a story from non-fiction, a fiction text and a poem. We had to answer different questions on each one. 

In Global Learning we've learnt about Police, and we wondered what they did in the daytime and the nighttime. 

We have enjoyed our learning in maths. We have been doing some maths quizzes and practicing our times tables. 

We are enjoying our Green Day today. We really enjoyed planting and looking at our tree.

We've enjoyed writing newspapers in English for the Lonely Beast. 

We really enjoyed playing games of football in PE. 

We’ve really enjoyed making our pizzas.

In English we’ve been making a newspaper about robbers. We’ve also taken two words and shortened them with an apostrophe, e.g. I am into I’m.

We’ve been learning about shapes in maths. We’ve been seeing if lines are the same by folding the shape to the line and seeing if they are the same.

In reading we have started a new book called the Christmasaurus.

We’ve been practicing our dances and songs for the play.

 We got out our reading journals and stuck a picture of a robber in. We then described what they looked like.

We’ve been having a debate about what if the Lonely Beast should or shouldn’t live in the park.

We have been using a number line for adding and subtracting 10. We’ve also been using 100 squares.

Our favorite part of the week was when we played king of the ring in PE. It was funny when Remy kicked someone elses ball out and then Max kicked his out.

I enjoyed doing a debate about the Lonely Beast with the class.  

In English we’ve finished our work on the jellyfish poems. We have also been drawing a road or using boxes to draw pictures to show what the Lonely Beast did. We have started to write a diary about the Lonely Beast.
