Main Activity

Today we are going to use everything we know about 3D shapes to sort them into categories. Find as many different 3D shapes from around your house as you can (use the picture to help you to find different shapes). Then predict if the shape will roll, stack or slide. On your whiteboard, in your blue Home Learning book or on JIT5 draw three columns with the headings Roll/Stack/Slide. Now find out if the shapes will roll, stack, or slide. Some of them may do more than one. Write the shapes name into the correct column depending on if it rolls, stacks, or slides.

Before you start discuss the meaning of these words with a family member. Use a dictionary or an online dictionary to help you – today, eager, vitamin, boost, defeat, flung

Now you have read the story, see if you can answer these questions.

1.What was for dinner? (page 5)

2. What happened to the sprouts when Mrs Butterworth squirted too much vitamin mix on the sprouts? (page 6)

3. Why is the boy saying “ouch” on page 9?

4. What was the name of Mrs Butterworth’s book? (Page 11)

5. How did they defeat the monster sprouts? (page 13)

Phase 5 Phonics – ay and ou

Get your whiteboard and pen ready to join in with today’s phonics lesson! Remember to pause the video if you need more time.

Now you have finished the video. Have a go at writing the words below on your whiteboard. Think about whether the sound has an ‘ou’ or ‘ay’ digraph.

Choose one word with each digraph to write sentences. Remember to use conjunctions and adjectives!

Science and Geography Challenge

Indonesia is a group of islands in what continent? Which ocean surrounds it? Listen to the video and find out the type of habitats there are in Indonesia.

The information on the postcard tells us that there are two species of animal that are native to Indonesia, the Komodo dragon and the Orangutan. What other animals can be found in Indonesia?

Group them together under the headings Mammals/Birds/Reptiles/Amphibians/Fish. Look at the pictures to remind you how to decide which group an animal belongs to. Do this in your yellow Home Learning book or on JIT5.

Each day you will have a 5 a day to complete for maths as well as your main activity. If you do not get them all correct we encourage you to have another go!

You will get a star for each full 5 a day you complete and a bonus star if you get 5/5!

5 a day

We can measure how much a jug can hold using cups. We call this measurement capacity.

Look at Sten’s jug below. His jug contains 15 cups of water.

Look at the two jugs at the bottom. We can use the terms ‘more than’ and ‘less than’ when comparing them to Sten’s jug.

Log onto Education City to play 'Pitcher Framed' and practise identifying whether the jugs contain more than or less than Sten’s jug. https://www.educationcity.com/

Look around your house to find containers that are full, nearly full, half full, half empty, nearly empty and empty and order them from fullest to emptiest. Then write labels to match the container. Remember to take a photograph and send it to us so that we can share your findings with everyone.
