Wednesday 3rd March
Good morning my lovely Skylarks 😊
I hope you are all well and feeling happy today. It has been lovely to see so many of you still engaging with our daily zoom sessions and school spider this week.
Please remember that I will be available on our discussion/homework area throughout the school day to help you and provide feedback on your work.
Please see below for today’s remote learning tasks and clubs.
Maths
Multiplication: For your maths lesson today, please see the PowerPoint attached. Just click on the little speaker icon on the PowerPoint page to listen. Today we are going to progress onto multiplying 4-digit numbers by 2-digit numbers using long multiplication.
If you cannot access the PowerPoint, please view the maths lesson at the following YouTube link:
If you are watching the lesson through the YouTube link, you may need to pause the video at appropriate times to give yourself time to complete the tasks.
Times Tables
This week I would like you to practice any tables that you still find tricky up to 12 x 12. Can you say it forwards and backwards? Can you write out the multiples of this number? Do you know the division facts? Why not use TTRS or hit the button to help you:

Writing
Great Gods of Norse Mythology: Again, please see the PowerPoint attached. Like the maths, I have recorded the instructions so just click on the audio button to hear what to do. Today, we will be revisiting the text ‘Great Gods of Norse Mythology’ and creating our own true or false quiz using the facts from the text.
I have attached the whole text below which you will need to print or have opened for our lesson today.

Reading
It would also be super if you could spend 10-15 minutes each day reading your school book that you have taken home or another book you have been enjoying at home.
This week’s author of the week is Dominique Valente. At the link below, you can get lost in the world of Starfell! Listen to an audiobook of the first in the series, Willow Moss and the Lost Day and watch an exclusive video with the author to find out more about the books and her best writing advice.

I have also attached the final online issue of ‘First News’ for you to enjoy at home.
Remember to continue writing in your reading diary and get an adult to sign in, then we can collect our raffle tickets when we are back in school.
Why not tell me what book you are reading over on our discussion?
Spellings
This week, I would like you to revisit the spelling rules we have learnt during our period of remote learning. Can you come up with your own spelling words for each of the rules below?
- Suffix -able (e.g. suitable)
- Silent letter t (e.g. listen)
- Suffix -ably (e.g. understandably)
- Suffix -ibly (e.g. incredibly)
- Suffix -ent (confident)
- Suffix -ence (e.g. evidence)
- ‘ee’ sound spelt ‘ei’ (e.g. receive)
Story: You will find our story embedded into our Writing PowerPoint. Today we will begin to read ‘The Boy in the Dress’ by David Walliams.
