Good morning Toucans.
I hope you have all started recording your daily exercise on our Fitness Challenge record. I was delighted to hear that so many of you go on daily walks and cycles. Today, I would like you to take a look at the GoNoodle website and try out the dances that I have listed below under PE. I am going to ring as many of your parents today as I can to check in to see how you are getting on with your home learning.
Maths
SHAPE – Converting Units of Time See the Power point attached. Our home learning maths lessons will be guided by a recording of Mrs Whittingham’s voice, which will explain what to do (Just click on the little speaker icon on the power point page). I have also included the answers on the last slide so no peaking until you have had a go at answering the questions yourself!
Please watch this video if you can’t access the audio on the PowerPoint. Remember to just pause it when needed and you can play back too if required.
Here is a link for some measurement games which will help you to revise converting units of measurement.

Reading
Toucans, we would love you to read a little each day of the school book you have or a book you have been reading at home. Don’t forget First News.
If you continue to record your reading in your diary and get an adult to sign your diary each time you read, you will still be able to collect your raffle tickets when we are back in school.
Spellings
This week we will be looking at the ‘sh’ sound spelt si or ssi.
We will focus on the word possession today -
How many letters are in this word?
Is it a noun/verb or adjective? How do you know?
Circle the si or ssi in each word.
Can you identify the root word in each spelling and compose a sentence with it?
Spelling words: profession, discussion, confession, revision, progression, decision, explosion, tension, collision, possession,
Story
(this has been recorded and embedded into our Writing Power Points – enjoy listening to the final instalment of War Game read by Mrs Whittingham)
Worship
Many of you are already familiar with this hymn, but now is your chance to sing it aloud at home and learn to sign it. - Our God is a Great Big God
