Good Morning Starlings!

I hope that you all had a lovely weekend. I spent my weekend catching up with all my friends online and spending plenty of time catching up on some gardening!

Weekly Spellings

Every week I will post 10 spellings for you to learn. On Friday, I would like you to ask a parent to test you and then let me know your score as part of the discussion thread.

Weekly Writing Task

Also on your Purple Mash 2do list is a Volcano writing task. I would like you to complete this by Friday and save it on Purple Mash or if you prefer, you can complete it on paper and upload it onto our blog.

Our Weekly Recommendation

Every week we will share with you one of our favourite recommendations to support you at home.

This week is about daily fitness alongside our spellings. We have set you 10 spellings this week to practise. As you practise, why don’t you give this fitness key a try. For every letter from the word, there is an action to do.

Here are today’s tasks Woodpeckers:

LBQ – Code  enx  (all lowercase)

There are 3 tasks, please complete all 3 tasks. If you get stuck, read the information given. Also, going on to IXL to practise similar questions may also help.

If you struggle with anything, please comment on this post what it is and I will try my best to get a video up asap to help you out!

 

 

 

Afternoon task

This term we are learning about volcanoes. This week, I would like you build me a Volcano. Perhaps you could build it out of paper and card, lego, modelling clay or you could even bake a cake in the shape of a volcano. I’m going to try the baking and up load this later in the week.

Other ideas:

IXL – Visit this site every week to practise some of the learning in the Year 4 Maths and English sections (passwords are your child’s full name in lowercase letters followed by 460 (mrdean460). Password is qwerty).

Read Theory – Complete a reading comprehension every day if you can as part of your reading challenge

Times Tables Rock Stars – visit this at least 3 times a week to practise your times tables.

Purple mash is great for research
