Tuesday 23rd February
Good morning my lovely Skylarks 😊
I hope you all had a great first day back after the half term holidays. Thank you all for engaging with our zoom and for working so hard yesterday. You may have heard the news that we will all be back together again in school on 8th March. I am so excited for this day to arrive and to see all of your lovely smiling faces back in our classroom!!!
It would be great to see you all on our zoom this morning. Please also 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.
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 continue to look at multiplication, specifically learning how to multiple two 2-digit numbers using the area method.
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
Relative Clauses: 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 complete a grammar lesson looking at relative clauses used to add extra detail to a sentence.
Here is the link to the video on relative clauses that you may want to watch before today’s lesson.

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 Jeremy Strong. You can read his book ‘Romans on the Rampage’ at the link below:

I have also attached the new copy 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
Have a go at reading, saying in a sentence and spelling words with the ‘ee’ sound spelt ‘ei’. 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 Friday we can have a little quiz.
Today’s word: deceive
Previous words: receive
Story: You will find our story embedded into our Writing PowerPoint. Today we will continue to read ‘The Boy in the Dress’ by David Walliams.
Worship
Today we will take part in an Open the Book worship where we will listen to the story of ‘The Two Sons’:
