Good morning gorgeous Goldfinches. I hope you enjoyed your zoom call with Mrs Whittingham yesterday and managed to get back into your school jobs.

Remember to upload your work on the Homework part of School Spider (there is one for maths and one for writing) so I can give you some individual feedback. If you want to chat to your friends, you can use the discussion part.

Worship

Today’s worship is from Open the Book. Today’s story is The Two Houses

Maths

Can I convert mm and cm? Click on the link below for Mrs Evans’ lesson: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_dQxaiiqm5Q

When I played the video back to test my talking bits were fine but the White Rose bit sounded a little glitchy. It might just be my computer or WIFI that is the problem but I have attached the link if it is also happening to your video.

Times Tables

Have another go at the grid challenge today. Have a go with the level 3 challenge. https://www.transum.org/Tables/Square.asp and perhaps even try challenge 4. I have attached a paper copy of the grid if you would prefer.

Last week, me and Toby found this brilliant times tables puzzle which really got us thinking https://www.transum.org/Tables/Convoluted.asp

Writing

Can I use standard English? Click on the link for Mrs Evans’ writing lesson: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kga4GyiQaac

If you want to print it, there is a copy of the text attached for today’s lesson but you don’t have to.

I have also attached a copy of the text if you would like to print but you don’t have to.

Spellings

We are learning words with the prefix ‘auto’ which means ‘self’.

Today’s words:

Remember in class how we use lots of different techniques to help us like

drawing boxes around the word

It is children’s Mental Health Week this week so please try and choose activities that help you stay active and relax. Have a look at the list of ideas attached.

Mrs Brennan is applying for some litter picking equipment and would love your help to win some for free. You could choose an activity to have a go at over the next few days. Once you are finished, please drop into school whilst you are on your daily walk and the entries will be put up in our sharing window.

· Draw a ‘Don’t drop litter’ poster and display in a window at school or at home

· Upcycle a plastic bottle into something new.

Deliver a short(remote) presentation on the danger of litter to wildlife to the rest of their school or family

· Design a new anti-littering slogan and logo for fast food, soft drinks or PPE litter

· Interview an older person to ask them about their thoughts on if the amount of litter is increasing. (perhaps via zoom from home and the findings put into a document)

Finally, something to make you smile… Happy Birthday Teddy!

Have a great day Goldfinches

Love from Mrs Evans and Miss Randles xx
