2) With real coins, make amounts. For example, make 20p, £1 etc! You can record this in anyway that you like. This might be a calculation e.g. 10p+ 5p+5p=20p or in jottings form. (Questions attached - How much is in the jar)

Fact of the day:  The Earth isn't perfectly round, it is slightly flattened at the north and south poles!   

Morning Journal: If you were going to be a vegetable, what would vegetable would you be? Miss Davey would be a potato because you can do lots of things with them - jacket pots, chips, wedges, mash, roast pots - the list is endless! Miss Keam would  be an onion because she has lots of layers and also she loved the film Shrek and that is his reply!

We would like you to write a letter of apology from Sam when the window got broken. 

Could you include some questions in your letter and describe how you can make things better, to help resolve the situation. 

Maths: Today we would like you to concentrate on looking at capacity focussing on millilitres and litres. 

1) MOS – TTRS for 15 minutes to get your brain ready for some Maths learning! If you have forgotten your log in details just give us an email and we can send them over :) Also, there is another game on TTRS, I don't know if anyone else has spotted it? It is called NumberBots. You can use your same log in and it should work!

2) Search around the house for a variety of containers/ bottles that show different measurements. Can you order them from what would hold the smallest to the largest amount? 

3) Fill up different containers to specific amounts e.g. 500ml, 1 litre. 

(There are 3 documents attached atthe bottom of the post for capacity - capacity colouring, reading capacity and a capcity quiz!)

 Music: On a Wednesday, we usually have music with Mr Redwood. So we would like you to have a go at learning this song. It is the British Sign Language for ‘You Are My Sunshine’. Myself and Miss Keam are currently trying to learn this too! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t0GJMvA05As  

Helping at home challenge : Today we would like you to help with making a bed! Make sure you listen to your grown up and watch carefully. 

Have a fabulous day and also just a big thank you for your emails. We love seeing what you are getting up to and it is so lovely to have so many thoughtful words. 

Lots of love  and squishy cuddles,

1) To get your brain in gear for Maths, play bingo! This could simply be numbers, or addition/ subtraction/multiplication/division! 

2) With a body part (hand, foot, arm or leg!) measure large objects in your house for example the table in the classroom is 4 hands long or half a leg of Miss Davey’s!  

3) If you have a ruler, measure objects from around the house. Remember to make sure you start at 0 to get an accurate measurement!  

4) Have a go at drawing specific lengths.​ (Sheets attached)

Topic: For ‘A Pirates Life For Us!’ We need to know all about the world all around us. For your topic challenge today we would love for you to recap your learning about continents. We learnt about this in Year 1 so we wonder if you can remember the 7 continents? If not, here is the song that we loved that helped us out!  (Sheet attached)

• How many continents are there? 

• What are they called?

Friday 27th March: 

Good morning to the BEST teams!

At the beginning of the week, a few children with Miss Miles and Miss Gutherie, created cards for the wonderful NHS workers thanking them for everything that they are doing for us. Today we received this wonderful photo of a ward in Guys Hospital in London with the cards on display for all to see. Just WOW! I know a few Year 2 children were the makers of these cards - well done guys! 

Playlist: Elvis Presley  - last day of Elvis so make the most of it! Do you have a favourite song?

Fact of the day:   Strawberries are technically not a berry! Weird but true! Berries by definition have their seeds on the inside, whilst strawberries hold their 200 seeds on the outside. MIND BLOWN!

Morning Journal:   We would love you to tell us what you had for breakfast?

Miss Davey: For breakfast I had yummy porridge,a crisp pink lady apple and a cup of tea! The best part had to be the pink lady apple because they are the best things EVER.

Feelings: Miss Keam and Miss Davey are feeling on yellow today because they are a little frustrated because they are missing their lovely  year 2s. However they are also feeling happy because of the wondereful messages on the padlet! Mrs Gale showed us how to do it - what a whizz she is!  What colour are you on? Why?
