Posted: Apr 1, 2020 by: Elaine Matthews (EMatthews) on: Class 3
Good morning everyone!
Thank you so much once again for all your lovely messages and all the fabulous photos! I'll post more of them later today! They're just too good to miss!
Here's today's activities! Thought we'd have some fun with craft activities later today!!
Maths;
8 questions;

- 32 x 100
- 1/5 of 60
- 2/10 + 7/10

Problem;
I made some chocolate crispy buns today. If I filled 5 trays with 8 buns on each tray, how many buns would I have made?
Activity;
Keep practising telling the time and recording the time to the nearest minute on your very own clock. The more you practise the better you will be. You'll never be late either!!!
Today, let's look at digital times. Your own clock will read minutes past and minutes to. However, a digital clock counts the minutes past, right up to 59, then changes to the next hour at '60'.
Can you work with an adult on the first 10 of these questions? Try more if you can.
eg 4:55 = 5 to 5
eg 2:40 = 20 to 3
Literacy;
Remind yourself of our story 'Into the forest' (you can access it via YouTube, but please make sure an adult is with you. Please focus on the conversations in the forest, where the little boy meets Jack, then Goldilocks and finally Hansel and Gretel. Now we have read quite a few play scripts in class, please could you have a go at writing a short play script for some (or all if you like) of the conversations in the forest. Remember you'll not need speech marks as it is a play script. Don't forget to set the scene and give stage directions in brackets!!
Here's a short example (I've named the little boy Tom);
Scene 1
Tom begins walking along the path through the dark forest. He meets a strange little boy with a black and white cow.
Tom: Hello!
Jack: Hello there! I have a very nice cow here. Would you like to buy it from me? It's a very good cow and has the tastiest milk. Please buy it. I don't want to go to market.
Tom: (Shaking his head) No thank you! I have to go!
Can you have a little go?
Remember to keep your handwriting really neat and tidy and try your best to join up if you can. Don't forget accurate punctuation and spelling too! Good luck!!
History and Art!!
How have you been getting on with your Viking research? Remember to use different sub-headings as you find out exciting facts. Did you find out about the different punishments given for crimes in Viking times? What happened at the Battle of Hastings and who won? Remember BBC Bitesize, Purplemash and twinkl are all excellent sites to help with your research.
Now for the fun part;
If you have some plain flour at home, some old newspapers and a bowl (or even a balloon) you could make a Viking helmet.
You might prefer to make a Viking shield; use some old cardboard (a cereal box or cardboard box would be great to use).
When you have finished it, dried it and painted it you may want to dress up and send me a photo or you could send me one as you're making it!
Have fun being very creative!
Reading;
Finally, share some special 1 to 1 reading time; listening to a lovely story and then reading to an adult. Remember to keep reading aloud every day. You may want to read poetry, fiction or non-fiction- it's up to you! Remember there are so many online eBooks at the moment (free of charge)- Oxford Owl or twinkl are offering them free at the moment. Enjoy!
Here is the challenge from Miss H for today! Remember to email us your creations! If you don't have Lego, don't worry any construction material will do …
Have fun!
Keep sending me your lovely emails and photos! Please don't hesitate to email me to let me know if you are having any difficulties with any of the activities. I am here to help!
Still keeping my fingers and toes tightly crossed that we are all back together in class 3 to enjoy at least some of the Summer term!
Take care!
Mrs Matthews
