LiteracyReading Spelling and Grammar Writing

We are learning to read for information using Non Fiction.

We are learning to use the spelling rule ‘kn’

We are learning to add the suffix ‘ful’ to make an adjective.

We are learning to write facts about a famous house using our research skills.

Task: Reading for information using Non Fiction.ReadingUse your Bug Club log in to access. This week we are working on Non Fiction Books. Non-Fiction is a book that tells you true facts about a topic. You use a non-fiction book to help you research for information. We hope you enjoy learning lots of interesting facts about different topics. Discuss the terms: contents page, index, glossary and title. Remember to answer the online questions by clicking on the bug throughout your book.We will continue to use our research skills across our learning this week in our topic Houses and Homes.P2a Lions- Purple Pirates Life at SeaTigers- Green- A Vet’s DayZebras- Blue Play the GuitarGiraffes- Blue A Little Look at Big ReptilesGiraffes 2- Yellow ButterfliesP2bGiraffes – Pirates: Life at SeaLions – Pirates: Life at SeaTigers – Epic AdventuresZebras – Play the GuitarBears – Let’s Eat Lunch

Complete the attached task for each reading group using your non-fiction book to help you answer accurately.

Word Lists and PhonicsPlease continue to practise your word lists (Bears, Zebras, Tigers 2b and Giraffes 2a) and your list of digraphs. Say the digraph sound and state a word containing that digraph. See previous grids for copies of word lists and digraphs.

Task: Active spelling strategies

Look over your words. Read them and spell them out loud.

Write some sentences containing your kn words (Hot 4 sentences, Medium 3 sentences and Mild 2 sentences).

At the end of the week, ask someone at home to give you a spelling test of 10 words. This can be a mixture of kn words and common words. Complete your spelling test in your jotter.

Grammar Task: Adding the suffix ful to make an adjective.

A suffix is letters added onto the end of a root word. There are many different suffixes with different purposes e.g. ful = careful, ness = fairness, less = endless, est = longest

We are looking at using the suffix ful to change a verb (doing word) into an adjective (describing word).

Please see the teaching page below and complete the task sheet. Choose one at the correct level of challenge for you, either mild, medium or hot.

Task: Functional WritingA Famous House

They could be homes that you can now visit e.g. a castle or a stately home, a home that is lived in e.g. 10 Downing Street, the Whitehouse or a royal palace e.g. Buckingham Palace. These are only some suggestions.

NumeracyCore Learning Mental Arithmetic ICT

We are learning to count in tens and complete a sequence of numbers.We are learning to place a two digit number accurately between tens on number line.We are learning to round a number to the nearest ten.

We are using our knowledge of counting in tens to solve problems and round to the nearest ten.

We are learning to research for information about a famous home using websites.

1. Counting in Tens Practise counting in tens

forwards and backwards to 100 (and beyond) from any 2 digit number e.g. 26 -36 -46 etc. Remember that the units digit does not

change

2 .Using a 100 Number SquareCall out any number 2 digit number to 100 and point to it as quickly as you can on the 100 number square. Try to think about which tens it lies between when finding it.Jungle Challenge- Try this on a blank 100 number square remembering it is in rows of tens.See attached 100 number square3. Rounding to the Nearest TenWatch the video clip to help you learn how to round to the nearest 10https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CMdck80SHnwRemember each step

find the tens that are on each side of the number use your 100 number square to help you or draw a number line

place the number between each ten look at it carefully. Is it above or below half way if it’s above (5 or more) round up to the nearest

ten if it’s below round down to the nearest ten

4. Activities Write some 2 digit numbers and put them in a

pile. Using chalk draw a number line outside and place

the correct tens on each side. Write the number on the correct place on the number line(as seen on the clip.)You can do this on a whiteboard or even just on paper to practise.

Science- Materials Health and WellbeingWe are learning about types different types of materialsWe are learning about soluble and insoluble materials

We are learning to keep fit and healthy using different type of exercise

MaterialsMany materials are used in our homes and daily lives. We found many such as glass, wood and plastic in previous science activity.This week we are learning about solids, liquids and gases.Follow each sequence of tasks that helps explain this step by step.Solids and LiquidsTasksWatch the clip on Plastics https://www.bbc.co.uk/bitesize/clips/zsys34j.Find some objects that have been made of plastic in your house and garden.How many of these have been moulded into a shape?Making GlassSome materials can be made by heating a solid a to a high temperature when it becomes a liquidWatch the clip on how glass is made and discuss it.https://www.bbc.co.uk/bitesize/clips/zh4g9j6Some materials are a liquid and when cooled become a solid. Think of making an ice cube.This is called a change of state.Use the Powerpoint Changing State to discuss and explain this.Science ExperimentsTry some of the experiments below and discuss what you have learned.Take an ice cube and place it on a plate. Watch it melt. What has it become?Recipe for Ice LolliesChocolate ExperimentAwesome Slime

GasWhen a liquid boils it changes state to become a gas. (A good way to explain this is to watch a kettle boil with your child from a safe distance if you wish.)Watch the Powerpoint Solids Liquids and Gases and discuss.Complete the Solids, Liquids and Gases activity sheet

Art and Design (continue from last week)Using Junk Materials such as boxes, cartons, natural materials etc. design and make a house.

Common Words

Suffixes – fulA suffix is letters added to the end of a root (main) word. We are looking at adding the suffix ful to the end of a word to make an adjective (describing word).use = useful care = careful help = helpful hurt = hurtful

These examples are all verbs (doing words) and when ful is added they became adjectives (describing words).

verb – My mum and dad take very good care of me.

adjective – I am always very care ful when I cross the road.

verb – My teacher will help me if I am stuck.

adjective – I am help ful around my house by always tidying my toys.

All groups: Matching Game – cut out the boxes to make individual cards.

1. Can you match the verb to its adjective?

2. Can you sort the cards into 2 piles, one with verbs and one with

adjectives.

Complete the sentences by filing in the blank with an adjective. Make your adjectives by adding ful to these verbs.

ball.3. I told my mum that I had tidied my room but she was very

not many people around and it is __________________________.

These sentences are wrong because a verb has been used instead of an adjective. Can you underline the wrongly used verb then rewrite the sentence using an adjective with the suffix ful.1.

Mental – Counting in 10’s and RoundingThis is a mental task; an adult at home should read out these questions, children should not see the questions. Answers should be written in your jotter. If you have a number square at home, you may use it to help you work out the answer.Remember, when adding or subtracting multiples of ten and finding more or less than in multiples of ten, if you can not find 20 more of take away 30 then do it in blocks of ten. For example, 20 is 2 blocks of 10 so 20 more than 50 is 10 more than 50 = 60 then another 10 more = 70. 30 is 3 blocks of 10 so 86 take away 30 is 86 – 10 = 76 – 10 = 66 – 10 = 56.
