EMA

If you are joining us on the live Teams session, the EMA will be included in the lesson. If you were unable to join the live session, the EMA can be found within the maths video. The link is below. 

 

Maths (1 hour)

Please join us for a live Microsoft Teams lesson at 9:00am. 

If you were unable to join the Teams session, please begin the lesson by watching this video ->https://vimeo.com/501677687

Today we are learning to draw and bar charts. Please have a go at the worksheet uploaded at the bottom of the page. The answers are also uploaded so, if you are able to, you can check your own work. Please remember to use a ruler when drawing your bar charts. 

 

CHALLENGE

If you would like to have a go at a challenge, there is one at the bottom of the page for you. If you have a dice, see if you can have a go at making a tally chart and then drawing a bar chart to show your results. If you don't have any dice at home, you can use THIS online page. 

Please ask an adult before clicking on any links. 

 

Please upload your responses to the maths task on Seesaw. Thank you.

 

English (1 hour)

Please check your Teams calendar for your group English session today.

Please note that some of the times have changed this week for guided reading. I have included on the Seesaw task the time that your group will be meeting.  

 

Today's English lesson will be on Teams in small groups. Please let me know if you are unsure which group you are in. 

The reading texts, comprehension questions and answers have been uploaded at the bottom of the page and on Seesaw if you would like to come back and have another look. 

 

Task

Today, please read over your poem from yesterday's lesson. Have you performed your poem? If not, try reciting your poem today to somebody at home. 

Have a think about your poem. What do you like? Where could you improve? Please evaluate your own poem by thinking about two stars and a wish - just like we do at school sometimes. A star is something that we think we have done well. A wish something that we could do to improve our poem to make it even better. 

 

If you did not join the Teams meeting, please upload your responses to the English task on Seesaw. Thank you.

 

 

Spellings

I have uploaded the spellings for this week at the bottom of the page. You should have already received these on Friday. 

Today, please have a go at one of the spelling activities uploaded below. There are four activities for you to choose from. You may want to have a go at some of the other activities next week to continue practising your spellings.

 

Please upload your responses to the spellings task on Seesaw. Thank you.
