Week Beginning: 30.11.20

Monday English - Look at this picture from one of Grandfather's letters. What might be happening in this picture? What might Grandfather have seen? Imagine you are Grandfather writing to your grandchild. Tell them about what you have seen.
 
Tuesday English - Think about some adjectives to describe the pictures of Antarctica below. Then write your own setting description. A good setting description is detailed, uses adjectives and adverbs and will describe your senses. 

   

Wednesday English - We will be creating "vocabulary cards" to help us record our ideas and learning about new words we have read. You can either print the vocab card template below or draw your own on some paper. Use the list of words below and a dictionary to find out more about the word meanings. 
 

Monday Maths - We will continue to order and compare fractions. Have a look at the picture below and discuss with a grown-up: Which of these fractions is the biggest? How do you know?
                               

Using the fraction wall below to help you, put the following lists of fractions in order from smallest to biggest. You might find it helpful to draw the fractions. You might want to spread this learning out over Monday and Tuesday to ensure you have worked through all of the questions in the resource below. 

Monday Topic - Art: We have been creating a landscape image of a polar bear this term in art. Use colouring pencils, crayons or paints to try and create your own image of the northern lights. Then sketch a polar bear to cut and stick onto your northern light scene. Use the youtube video below to help you.

Wednesday Topic - Christmas Craft: In school we will be making decorations to hang on our school tree. Use the bauble template below or draw your own and create a bauble to hang on your own tree or to send into school. Get creative and use whatever resources you have at home!  

Thursday Topic - Science: We have been learning to name the bones of the human skeleton. In class we will be making a moving skeleton using paper, card and split pins. You can download and print the sheet to complete this same activity. Alternatively you can draw your own skeleton, or draw around your own body and practise naming and locating the bones of the body. 

Friday Topic - RE: We have been learning about the creation story in RE. Use the video clips below to remind yourself of the creation story.
