Week 9

Week beginning Monday 22nd June, 2020

Maths:

This week we are practising using the column method for subtraction. First we practise with only one exchange and then we move onto more than one exchange.  Please tackle all reasoning questions given each day, not just the calculations.  

(Due to technical issues with the website, the maths was not visible. Our apologies)

Cross-Curricular learning - Road Trip, USA - 1:

This week we are starting our new topic: Road Trip, USA!

The powerpoint for this week's learning, 'Road Trip, USA! - 1', is available to download below. There are 5 days of work. Each day is signified by the number in the top right-hand corner (for example Lesson 1 would be for Monday, 2 for Tuesday etc.). This week we will be covering geography, non-fiction writing and reading skills. PLEASE read the notes section (beneath each slide) for key information and instructions, related to the task. There are four documents to download, that have also been uploaded below.

PE/Exercise

It is incredibly important that we keep our bodies healthy too. At 9am Mondays and Wednesdays,  Joe Wicks livestreams a workout for children on YouTube. Just type in 'PE with Joe' just before 9am. He also does quizzes to test your minds whilst you exercise!

You could also go for walks, bike rides, exercise or play sports in the garden/park/outdoor space - whatever you have access to and can manage. Stay fit, eat healthily and get enough sleep at night.

Guided Reading

Please do continue to access 'The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe' text and study guide - I have reuploaded this for those asking for it. Read a chapter then locate the associated activities for that chapter in the study guide. 

If you have completed the book and activities, I recommend reading non-fiction texts about American heroes, as our new topic is about the USA. In light of recent events, this could be a great time to research civil rights icons like Harriet Tubman, Rosa Parks, Martin Luther King. 

Ask your child a series of questions related to the text and make sure these go beyond just picking the answers from the page, but also encourage the child to think more deeply.

RE

For the next 4 weeks, an RE document will be upload (1 word document per week). The document includes detailed parental guidance and some background knowledge required for teaching the activity. It is important that these lessons are completed with an adult. Push your child's thinking and help them to make religious or personal links, where possible. This week is RE - Lesson 2.

Spanish

I have uploaded some new Spanish resources below. We are moving on from numbers and dates onto colours. Use the powerpoint for practice, before attempting the tasks.  Remember, online and YouTube have some fantastic resources to support teaching/learning Spanish, too! Do you know somebody who can speak Spanish? Maybe you could zoom/facetime them and practise with them!

This is EXTRA learning for if all the work from here has been completed, or to be completed in ADDITION to the work set here. Challenges may sometimes be reset if the result shows the student could do with more practice. Please do reattempt these when they are set.
