Reading Comprehension

Maths 

Today we have been learning how to use empty numberlines to help us with different number bonds. As this is quite difficult to work on at home, why not practice your number bonds to 10, 20 on Hit the Button as well as other additions. Remember if you don't know the answer - put one number in your head and then count on with your fingers. Keep working on these until you can do these in your head.

English

We looked at the poem The day the zoo escaped today. 

We enjoyed reading it and acting it out. 

We found all the words with the suffix (word ending) "ly", can you find them? 

Then we talked about how we could change the animals for other animals who might have escaped from the zoo. We crossed out the animals we wanted to change and wrote the animal neatly above it. You don't have to change all the animals if you don't want to. 

Finally we talked about how we knew it was a poem because it wasn't written in full sentences, each line started on a new line and that it rhymed. Then we found the words that rhymed, can you? (They are at the end of some of the lines.)

Science

Our new Science topic is Use of Everyday Materials. We looked around us at and recapped all the different materials things were made of e.g. metal, wood, fabric, plastic, glass. Then we thought about each material's properties using these words. Can you write some sentences about different materials and what they are like. We are particularly learning what transparent and opaque mean.
