Hi Skylarks 😊
I hope you are all well this morning and ready for a busy day of learning.
Please see below for today’s home learning tasks and remember to use our class discussion and homework feature to ask any questions, share you work or even just to say hello. I can’t wait to see you all on our zoom this morning!
Maths
Calculating Area: 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 will be learning how to calculate the area of a shape.
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 x11 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
Hansel and Gretel – Comprehension: 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 look at the book ‘Hansel and Gretel’ by Wilhelm and Jacob Grimm. We will read the next couple of pages of ‘Hansel and Gretel’ before completing a comprehension activity based on what we have read so far.
If you wish to download and print pages 5 and 6 of Hansel and Gretel that we will be using today, I have attached it to this blog. However, this is not essential as the text will also be included and read aloud in our English PowerPoint/Video.
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.
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 -ibly. 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: horribly
Previous words: possibly, responsibly, incredibly
Story: You will find our story embedded into our Writing PowerPoint.
Worship
This week for our signing worship, we will begin to learn a new song ‘Be Still for the Presence of the Lord’:

Have a super day Skylarks and remember I will be on our class discussion during the school day for a chat or to help you with your home learning 😊
