Good morning Skylarks and Happy Wednesday 😊
I hope you are all well today and are ready for another super day of remote learning. Please don’t forget to join our zoom session this morning at 8.40am. I can’t wait to see you all!
Please see below for today’s home learning tasks and remember that I will be available on our discussion/homework area throughout the school day to help you and provide feedback on your work.
Maths
Time: 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 be thinking about time. We will be converting between years, weeks, days, hours, minutes and seconds.
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 can you practice your x12 tables? Don’t forget to practice other tables that you still find tricky too. 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
The Curiosity Shop: 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. As we only have a couple of days left before half term, we are not going to start a new literacy book/topic. Instead, we are going to spend a few days using an intriguing image as a stimulus for our writing. Today we will look at the image of ‘The Curiosity Shop’ and work on some descriptive writing based on it.
If you cannot access the PowerPoint, please view the writing lesson at the following YouTube link:

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 former Blue Peter presenter Konnie Huq. You can read her book ‘Cookie and the Most Annoying Boy in the World’ at the link below:

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
Have a go at reading, saying in a sentence and spelling words with the suffix -ence. You could make your own spelling doodle and add to it throughout the week. I will add a new word each day and then on Thursday we can have a little quiz.
This week’s spelling quiz will take place on Thursday due to a change in the remote learning timetable on Friday (you will find out more about this later in the week).
Today’s word: confidence
Previous words: silence, evidence
Story: You will find our story embedded into our Writing PowerPoint.
Worship
Today for our worship I would like you to take part in a guided meditation on My Smiling Mind, just like we do in school.
Most of you will already have made an account, if so just login and take part in session 5: https://app.smilingmind.com.au/
If you are still having trouble accessing these resources, please don’t hesitate to get in contact.
Have a wonderful day everyone 😊
Love from Miss Beattie x
