This week is National Storytelling Week

Why don't you have a go at storytelling as a family?

In school we sometimes sit in a circle and ask each child to add a part/sentence of a story to help to create a made up story, the adults help to structure the story. The more you do it the better the children get and understand a story structure.

Or

Why not ask your child to tell you or their brother/sister their favourite story?

Or perhaps mum or dad could make up a story for bedtime? 

Here is a link with some more storytelling ideas

Now look, cover, write, check

English - Live lesson with Mrs Burton 9.45

Together we will discuss and begin to plan another warning story, using a few words we liked from Pandora's box story. After the lesson I would like the children to read the Pandora's Box story again and highlight any words/phrases/sentences they like which they will use in their own story.

Today I want your child to ensure handwriting is as good as it can be. Here is a booklet where your child can copy the word, making sure their tall, small and low letters are clear. 

Handwriting booklet

If you are not able to print this booklet out, feel free to use the pink homework book, your child can copy the words on to lined paper, still making sure the tall letters are tall, the small letters are small and the low letters are low. 

Also it is important your child is holding their pencil or pen correctly. I have copied this from Mrs Smith's blog as the expectations are the same no matter what class you are in

Handwriting focus - how to hold a pencil correctly and sit at a table ready to write.

Here is how to help

1.  Lay the pencil down on the table with the point facing towards you.
   

   
   

   

   
   
2. Fly your Polly parrot fingers down to the pencil and grip it with your thumb and first finger (do not twist your hand)
   

   

   
   
3.  While gripping the pencil with your thumb and first finger pull the pencil towards you until it touches your hand between the finger and thumb - we call this "putting your pencil to bed"
   
   

   

   
   
4. Slide your middle finger under the pencil to support it.
   
   

   

   
   
5. 
   

 Tuck your finger two fingers under until they touch the palm of your hand.

How to sit correctly at a table when writing. Learning our school terminology.

We use -

• TNT - Tummy near table 
• BBC - bottom, back, chair
• 6 legs on the floor - this is your four chair legs, and your two flat feet on the floor
  
  
  
  
  

When we write at school we used line guide paper.  All the lines have different names.

They are called: 

• Top broken line
• Top solid line
• Bottom solid line
• Bottom broken line

These letters are small letters and they fit exactly between the two solid lines.

These letters are tall letters and they start from the top broken line and sit on the bottom solid line.

These letters are hanging down letters. They start at the top solid line, or sit between the two solid lines and go down to the bottom broken line.

This letter is the tallest letter. It starts at the top broken line and goes all the way down to the bottom broken line.

There is one letter which the odd one out. A t is a teenager t. It starts half way between the top broken line and the top solid line. It sits on the bottom solid line.

Art

Last lesson you chose one of David Hockney's pieces of art to replicate (make a copy). Show this to the people you live with, what do they think? Ask them what one thing you could do to improve? Take their advice and do a second copy, trying to improve the areas suggested. Compare the 2 pieces of art, talk about how easy or difficult it was, compare it with David Hockney's original. Talk about the things you are proud of in your piece of art.

Forest School (Optional)

This week’s Forest School activity is all about the fabulous Earth Worm. This activity will show you how worms turn plant waste into soil. With your own wormery, you can feed and watch your recycling wrigglers at work!

Stone stacking is an art, discipline, or hobby in which stones are naturally balanced on top of one another in various positions without the use of glue, wires, supports, rings or any other contraptions which would help maintain the construction's balance. 

Collect some interesting shaped stones on a walk or from your garden (they don’t need to be big – pebbles will work too). Can you find the natural balance and construct your own Stone Stack? 

Take your time and have fun! We would love to see your pictures.

History

In History this half term, we are going back to the time we looked at in Autumn Term, we learned that  in 1605 Guy Fawkes tried to blow up the Houses of Parliament and the King. See if your child can remember anything about the story or the time. What was life like? What clothes did they wear? Did they have electricity? What might houses have been like? How might their lives have differed to ours?

We call this the 17th century - even though the years start with a 16, it is the 17th century.

Look at this Life in the 17th Century PP together and discuss life in the1600s compared to now. In the next few lessons we will start to look at some important events in the 1600s which we can also compare with now. You could draw a timeline to show how long ago the 1600s were compared to now and research important events that happened in the 1700s, 1800s, 1900s, 2000s up until now to help children better understand what people did and did not have in the 1600s.

Reading

 

Obviously, it is really important for children to keep developing as readers during these

difficult times, so we wanted to offer our support for you to ensure this continues to

happen throughout this period of home learning.

 

We have looked into a number of resources and feel that the following could be really

useful:

 

Oxford Owl

https://home.oxfordowl.co.uk/

 

This website contains a wide range of ebooks for children to read online. It is really easy to

navigate and explore the books by age range.

available to view as an online version yet.

A range of books read by celebrities to engage children in reading.

 

Audible

https://stories.audible.com/discovery/enterprise-discovery21122356011?ref=adbl_ent_anon_ds_ds_dccs_sbtp-0-1

 

Audible have a selection of stories that are free to listen to – these are especially great for

evenings, especially on those days where you may have totally run out of the energy

required to read your child a bedtime story! Listening to one of these together may be a

great sleep aid for you both, you never know!

BOOKS TO BUY!

The following website is really useful for recommending books that you can order for your

children to read at home:

https://schoolreadinglist.co.uk/category/reading-lists-for-primary-school-pupils/

It is categorized into year groups, and when you click on a book, it then takes you to the

Amazon site, where you can then order it if you wish.

Ebooks are brilliant and mean that you have a whole range of books at the click of a button,

but I’m sure you will agree, there is nothing like receiving a new book and holding it to

read!
