Remote Learning Tuesday 12th May 2020

Posted: May 11, 2020 by: Emma Barker (EBarker) on: Class 2

Good morning Class 2! Well today is the day! Netherthong Race for Life! I’m in school and I’m going to be busy working this morning, but I know that I’ll be thinking about this afternoon. Thank you to everyone who has sponsored this event so far and good luck to everyone who has designed their own Race for Life – just knowing that you are with me in spirit will help me to carry on this afternoon.

So the suggested schedule for today is as follows...

E.R.I.C. - Everybody Reading in Class for 20 mins

Active time - Joe Wicks is showing a PE lesson at 9am or Go Noodle 

Maths/Literacy - do this in batches of 20 mins each, build in breaks.

Music

Maths

LO: Find fractions of amounts

  • 85 + 37 =
  • 27 – ? = 9
  • £1 – 68p =
  • 60 ÷ 5 =
  • Write fifty-five in digits.
  • Partition 356 into 100s, 10s and 1s.

Look at this number sentence: ¼ of 12 = ? To find ¼ of a number, we can halve and halve again to split the number into 4 equal parts. Look at 1/3 of 12; what does this mean? This time we need to split 12 into 3 equal groups…

Now have a go at these…

English

Here’s today’s Litz Blitz…

1) What type of word is underlined:

We raised lots of money for Cancer Research

2) Write in the 3 missing capital:

today is tuesday, and tomorrow is wednesday.

3) Which word means to do something well:

accomplish      accompany       accommodate

4) Fill in the missing word:

Simon went  _________ the road.

5) Make the contraction for they are

Have a go at this sentence game today… http://www.scootle.edu.au/ec/viewing/L8741/index.html#

It should really help you to think about how we can ‘build’ sentences and make them more interesting.

Then I’d like you to go back to our class story from yesterday and add some more. The children that had a go yesterday were brilliant! It was so lovely to see all your names there. Let’s keep going with that – remember to read everything that goes before your part and we are writing in the ‘past tense’ – so your verbs might need ‘ed’ at the end! Don't rush the story, ensure you have lots of description to paint pictures in your readers' minds.

Music

How did you get on with your accompaniments last week? We are going to keep with the theme of using objects from around your house as instruments and compose your very own seaside soundscape. A soundscape is where you use different sounds to bring a scene or image to life. This week I would like you to create a graphic score of what your composition is going to look like. Here is an example of what a graphic score is to remind you.

Here is a blank score for you to use. Think about what you could use to represent the sea, birds, people chattering and laughing, anything you normally hear at a seaside. Here is a YouTube clip of sounds you hear at the seaside to give you some inspiration.

How did you get on last week with the blindfolds? Any bumped knees? This week, I would like you to do the same but after you have plotted your course, you be the person that is blindfolded! You will need to write some clear instructions for the person directing you to use! Good luck …

Have a wonderful day! Keep smiling and keep sending me your emails - we just love reading them!
