Maths game!

The game is called ‘Two Roller’. You can play with two or more players, or one player (play against yourself!)

It will allow you to practise addition.

You will need two dice (can find online if not), a piece of paper and a pen/pencil.

Split your paper into columns (one column for each person playing. E.g. draw a line down the middle of your page if playing with two players).

Write each player’s name at the top of their column.

The first person rolls the two dice. They add the numbers on both dice. They write the sum in their column with the answer.

E.g. *Player 1 rolls a three and five*

Writes: 3 + 5 = 8

Player 1 then rolls the two dice again. They add the sum of their next roll to the sum of their first roll.

E.g. *Player 1 then rolls a six and a six.

Writes 6 + 6 = 12

so… 8 + 12 = 20

Player 2 has their go.

The winner of each round is the person with the greatest number at the end.

A number line/100 square may help (Google images if no physical one).

Next week, you will start your published piece of work. It will be a fact file about Rosa Parks. It will include EVERYTHING you know about her… which I’m sure is a lot! These will be to be stuck around school so that everybody knows how amazing a person she was! The activity below will help you to plan your fact file!

When two vowels go walking, the first does the talking!

/oa/ makes the sound of the letter /o/

/ie/ makes the sound of the letter /ie/

/ai/ makes the sound of the letter /a/

and so on.

The pages below will help you to learn this.

WCR: Read a book of your choice with someone at home. There are some great online books on Oxford Owl. It’s free to join!

Big Idea

Linked with our topic of ‘Little People, Big Dreams’, we will be getting to know some of the residents at Manor House Care Home. On Friday at 14:30 we will zoom call them and have a chance to ask them any questions we might have to help us get to know them. These could be questions about their favourite film/book/game, etc. or about their life.

Please write a question for the residents of the care home. If you would like to send it to me, I will ensure it is answered on Friday.

Art: Look very closely at the eye of someone at home. What can you see? What colour is it? Is it one colour or several? Do they have a white part around the iris? Can you see the black pupil? Is there eye perfectly round, or more oval (like a rugby ball)?

Have a go at drawing what you see when you look at their eye. Take your time and add as much detail as you can.

Maths

In Maths, we are looking at adding two-digit numbers.

To add two-digit numbers, it is easier to partition them (split) them into tens and ones.

E.g. 51 has 5 tens and 1 one.

Have a go at partitioning the numbers below.

We can then put the two-digit numbers into columns, with a column for the tens and a column for the ones. You can see this in the question below.

Have a go at the questions below.

Art

In art, we will be drawing a portrait of Rosa Parks. As you can see below, I have had a go already. It is best if you take your time and follow the steps below.

With a ruler, draw one line down the middle of your page and then three lines across. If you are feeling like a challenge, can you measure the lines so that the boxes are equal? (Perhaps an adult could support you with this?)

Maths

Watch the start of the video below.

The children have made their own part-whole diagram. Can you make your own? You could use plates and straws/pencils. Can you use your part-whole diagram (and a 100 square to help you) to answer:

50 + ___= 100

100 = 40 + ____

30 + 70 = ____

20 + ____= 100

____ + 10 = 100

PSHE

In PSHE, we are celebrating difference. In English, we are learning about Rosa Parks. When Rosa Parks was a Civil Rights Activist, difference was not celebrated. Everybody is different, and that’s great. It would be boring if we were all the same!

Have a think about what makes you different. What makes me different (Miss Place) is that, when I’m not teaching you, I’m a squash coach!

Can you write what makes you different and draw a picture to match?

Maths – Bonds to 100 (tens and ones)

Can you use a hundred square (physical or online) to help you to answer the following:

64 + ? = 100

52 + ? = 100

100 = 33 + ?

100 = ? + 86

Outdoor Learning

These are the names of the world’s five oceans:

Indian Ocean

Atlantic Ocean

Pacific Ocean

Southern (Antarctic) Ocean

Arctic Ocean

Using outdoor materials, Can you choose one and spell it out. Which materials could you use? Why? Would leaves work well or are they too light? Would bendy twigs work well?

Ask someone at home to write the names of the 5 oceans onto pieces of paper. While you close your eyes, ask your adult to make one of the pieces of paper disappear. Can you work out which one is gone? Challenge: If they make two disappear, can you work out which ones are gone?

Today, we re-read our class book. We also watched a Horrible Histories video about Rosa Parks. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z5Ta_je_IC8

We came up with our special six words.

They were: regular, civil rights, inspired, convinced, slavery, equal

Can you write six sentences with a special six word in each? Remember capital letters and full stops!

With someone at home, get out your number line. Can someone at home call out a number for you to put your finger on as quickly as you can? They then ask you to add/subtract another number. Use your finger to hop on or hop backwards that number. What answer does your finger land on?

Play ‘Hit the Button’ – number bonds to ten. How many number bonds can you make in the time given?

For the adult at home to demonstrate for your child: (Lesson Objective: Add by making 10) – Use counters (or pens/pencils, rubbers, sweets, etc.) to show (count out) 9 + 4. Make a group of ten and then put the remaining 3 into a separate group. Then, point at the first group of counters, count ten and then 11, 12, 13 (pointing at each counter in the group of three individually). Repeat this with 8 + 5, with your child helping.

English

Use the images from English yesterday to write 7 questions (a question per image) about what the book could be about. Remember to use a capital letter at the start of each question and a question mark at the end!

E.g. Who is the lady in the picture?
