Week 8 - WB 1st June

It's a new learning week in a new half term - the last half term before the Summer holidays!

The learning this week has been planned by Miss Potter and Eryn! She has chosen one of her favourite stories and planned some very exciting activities for you to do too.

Don't forget to send your learning to Miss Potter!

Room on the Broom by Julia Donaldson

Read from our own classroom...

Writing: Last week we looked at ‘onomatopoeia’. Today we are going to recap on these special words in a different context. This will help us to make sure we have a really good understanding.

  • Watch the video of Miss Potter reading ‘Room on the Broom’ - if you have a copy at home, perhaps you can read it too!
  • Rewatch the video on ‘onomatopoeia’:

PSHE:

At the end of the story, the witch tells her new friends that she is grateful. What are you grateful for?

Create a list of all the things that you are grateful for!

Miss Potter is grateful for: the emails that Moles send me, lots of extra cuddles with my kitty, the sunshine, burgers cooked on the BBQ!

Maths: Maths Games Friday!

Job 1: Find a broom!

Job 2: Can you use a Venn Diagram to sort objects into groups that are smaller than the broom and larger than the broom?

Job 3: Ask your grownup to download the app ‘Measure’. Have a go at measuring things in your home. Did you know my cat is 70cm long?!

 

Flashlight Friday:

On a normal Friday at school, we would spend some time getting cosy with books. Can you do the same at home? Find your favourite stories, a blanket and a teddy, shut the curtains, turn on the torch and get reading! It’s the perfect end to the week.
