English and Topic work
For the rest of this week children should continue working on their newspaper article and their project on the Romans. They should also make sure that they read regularly at home.
Maths
1. To continue their learning on geometry in maths children should watch the following clip on angles.
https://www.bbc.co.uk/bitesize/topics/zb6tyrd/articles/zg68k7
They should then make a right angle finder. This can be done by drawing and cutting out a circle, folding it into quarters and cutting out a quarter; or by using the link below.
https://www.twinkl.co.uk/resource/t2-m-024-right-angle-finders
Children can then make a list of objects with right angles, acute angles and obtuse angles.
2. Below is a fun game to help your child with their learning on position and direction. Your child could print out and play the game (if you have access to a printer) or have a go at making a similar game themselves.
Wally postition and direction game
Physical Activity
During P.E lessons at school we follow a programme called Real P.E. They have now released a website so children can access this from home.
Real PE at home includes an online programme which supports families to be active, play and learn together. It includes a programme for children in Key Stage 2, with daily and weekly guidance provided in addition to an option to choose your own themes and activities.
There are so many benefits to being active, not only to our physical wellbeing but also to our emotional and mental health, especially in such testing times for all of us. We hope that the ideas help support you and your family to stay fit and healthy in the coming months. Here are the details to access real PE at home:
The website address is: home.jasmineactive.com
