Good morning Toucans.
It was lovely to talk to so many of your parents yesterday to check in on how you are managing with your home learning. We can’t wait to see you all on our Zoom call on Monday morning. I hope you all work hard today so then you will be ready to enjoy the weekend with your families.
Maths
SHAPE – Timetables See the Power point attached. Our home learning maths lessons will be guided by a recording of Mrs Whittingham’s voice, which will explain what to do (Just click on the little speaker icon on the power point page). I have also included the answers on the last slide so no peaking until you have had a go at answering the questions yourself!
Please watch this video if you can’t access the audio on the PowerPoint. Remember to just pause it when needed and you can play back too if required.
Here is a link for a great game to revise how to tell the time.

Writing – Floating Island

Reading
Toucans, we would love you to read a little each day of the school book you have or a book you have been reading at home. Don’t forget First News.
If you continue to record your reading in your diary and get an adult to sign your diary each time you read, you will still be able to collect your raffle tickets when we are back in school.
Spellings
As its Friday today and we would usually have a test I would like you give yourself one using these words today. Look at each word, say it to yourself and then write it down.
Spelling words: profession, discussion, confession, revision, progression, decision, explosion, tension, collision, possession,
Story
(this has been recorded and embedded into our Writing Power Points – enjoy listening to our new book ‘The Last Post’ by Keith Campion, read by Mrs Whittingham)
You can also follow this link to see Mrs Whittingham begin to read this beautiful book. https://youtu.be/gKNENwOiUA0
