Good morning super Swallows!
How are you today? Did you enjoy describing the seasons yesterday? I hope you are ready for another fun filled day of home learning.
Please see our task list and PowerPoint presentations below to find out what your home learning tasks are for today. Please also remember to take a few moments to look at the class discussion page each day where I will be available to ‘chat’ to you about the work that I have set for that day. You can just pop on there to say hi or have a little chat with your friends. The children can type in their own messages as it is a lovely, safe way of us staying in touch. To access this you will need to login to school spider. Your login details are stuck inside the front cover of your reading diary. We already have some Swallows talking about their favourite animals today.
Maths – Adding a 2-digit number and a 1-digit number - crossing 10. Please see the talking Power point attached at the bottom of the page. You will see a little icon on each page which needs to be clicked on in order to hear my voice. If you are struggling to hear the sound on the PowerPoint, I have also attached a video of the full PowerPoint. via a YouTuve link. You may need to oress pause and come out of this to watch the White Rose video mentioned and linked below.
Note: Please do excuse my 'singing' today!
Here is a link to the White Rose video shown during our PowerPoint today:
One of our SUPER Swallows spotted that Miss Gillam needs to complete a fix-it today. Can you spot where Miss Gillam went wrong?
'Hi Miss Gillam the answer to the 70+14 is 84 not 74 😊'. It is a good job I have you to help me!
Times Tables
Swallows have really enjoyed learning how to count in multiples of 2, 5 and 10 over the past few months. We have now started to answer multiplication and division number sentences for the 2, 5 and 10 times table. Can your Swallow write out the 2 x table? Can you write it even quicker than yesterday? This is our last day on our 2 x table. Perhaps you could use an online timer to see how quickly you can write them down?
2 x 2 =
3 x 2 =
Here are some lovely little 2 x table game where you can apply your skills. The games get harder as you progress down the page.

Writing
Can you write a fact file? - See the Power point attached at the bottom of this blog post. You will need to do some research today to help you with your writing. Like the maths, I have recorded the instructions so just click on the audio button to hear what to do.
Again, here is a link to the video for if you are struggling to access the sound on your device.
Reading
Please spend some time reading either the school book you took home with you or a book you have been reading at home each day. Please also remember to use our Oxford Owl website to access reading books online. Here you can access Read Write Inc and other story books at your level.

Spellings
Our spellings will be on our English Powerpoint each day. Please use your spelling whiteboard and roll and spell game to help you to learn them. We will complete our little spelling quiz each Friday.
Excuse the (sort of) singing.... again! Sorry adults!
Story
Please have a listen to our exciting story ‘WE ARE NOT FROGS’. I wonder if you can recognise who is reading our story today? You will find the audio at the end of our English PowerPoint. I will read a little bit of the story to you each day. We are almost half way through our story now!
Have a fantastic day Swallows and don’t forget to let me know how you are getting on with your learning in our class discussion today. I would love it if lots of you popped on to say hello and let me know what you have been getting up to. To see my replies, you might need to refresh the page.
It has been a busy week for everyone and I think we are all ready for the weekend. Have a good rest and I will speak to you again on Monday. Parents, I will be phoning to check in with you all on Monday too.
Lots of love from
Miss Gillam
