20.04.2020: Home Learning

GOOD MORNING! I hope we have all had a lovely weekend! It was very sunny and warm so I sat in my conservatory with the door open to the garden with a homemade ice lolly *attempting* to study. 

Learning for today:

PE: Either find a safe space (garden?) and do 10 jumping jacks, 10 squats and 10 bunny hops or do Joe Wicks’ workout. Or will you do BOTH?!

M: Start with a speedy recap of your 5x and 10x. You can do this with a dice game if you have dice, on TTRS, Hit the Button, or you could practise chanting like we do in school?

We are going to revisit negative numbers!

Take a look at: https://www.bbc.co.uk/bitesize/topics/znwj6sg/articles/zxthnbk to remind yourself of what a negative number is.  

Grab (draw/Google) a number line that spans from -20 to 20 (+). Count up and down to get confident! Don’t forget 0.

This video, though advanced, might be useful at home if you want to make this practical by jumping around to practice: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DBSviXhkubg

PRACTICE:

1.  0 – 5 =
2. 4 – 7 =
3. 7 – 9 =
4. – 4 + 8 =
5. -7 + 2 =
6. What is 4 more than -5?
7. What is 8 less that -1?
8. Fill in the sequence: -9, ___ , -13, ___, -17, -19. Are the temperatures getting hotter or colder?
9. The temperature is 6 degrees Celsius. If it falls by 18 degrees, what is the temperature now?

E: Go into your Home Learning, Reading section and have a listen to the Powerpoint opening of our new CORE TEXT! You will find out more tomorrow, but keeping in theme with a story that is full of tension and suspense, I will not reveal the title just yet. You might, though, be able to guess based on listening to the preface and doing the task for today!

TASK: Create your own poster all about clocks. What is a clock? Why are clocks important? How do clocks work? What famous clocks do you know of? Use the internet/adult to gather as much information as you can to put in!

RE: Refresh! Read through your notes about BUDDHISM (Buddha, Vesak) or browse these sites:

Now that you have refreshed your memory…. today, we are learning about the Ploughing Festival. Take a look at the slides attached below.

TASK: Imagine you are child taking part in the Ploughing Festival and write a short diary entry explaining what you can see, smell and hear? Are you carrying anything? What are you wearing? How are you feeling?

Today, I am sharing some of my pictures from Cambodia. Can you spot the Buddha faces? Want to find out more, go online and take a look at the Bayon temple and the many temples of Siem Reap!

If you find out any FUN facts about Buddhism, post to Padlet and share them with friends!

Extra activities:

R: Access the GG Powerpoint and listen along to Groosham Grange and/or read a chapter of a book of your choice. I have ADDED the penultimate chapter!

Spelling: Practise this week’s spelling in time to test yourself this Friday!

Help around the house: Ask your adult if there is anything you can do to make their day better!

 

Have a great Monday. Happy learning! Don’t forget to send me emails/pictures/upload to Padlet!
