Happy Thursday everyone 😊
How are you all today Skylarks? I know we are all feeling a bit tired and are ready for the half term break so I just want to say a big thank you to everybody for continuing to engage with our lessons, daily zoom sessions and class discussion. I love seeing all of your smiling faces each morning and feel so proud when I look at the work you have produced.
It would be lovely to see you all on this morning’s zoom – the link is in today’s class discussion!
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
Timetables: 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 reading various timetables. To do this, you will need to apply your knowledge of hours, minutes and seconds from yesterday’s lesson.
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. Today we will continue to use the image of the Curiosity Shop to inspire our writing. We will be writing diary entries based on our visit to the shop.

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.
Today’s word: independence
Previous words: silence, evidence, confidence
We will have a mini quiz on these 4 words at the end of our writing lesson today.
Worship
This week for our signing worship, we will continue to learn/practice how to sing and sign ‘Be Still for the Presence of the Lord’:

Have a wonderful day everyone 😊
