Home Learning for Week Beginning Monday 27th April
Monday 27th April:
Happy Monday! Morning Team Sky and Team Ocean!
Playlist: This week is a slight twist on the artist playlist. Miss Davey came across this playlist on Spotify and it has been on repeat! There are some great songs on there that you may or may not know. My favourite song on there at the moment is ‘Lifted’ by The Lighthouse Family! Let us know what your favourite songs are. https://open.spotify.com/playlist/37i9dQZF1DWXF8Nf1uycDZ?si=Z3qngrdZT3ih7vjcKgbqqw
Fact of the day: A silly fact today! Did you know that you pass wind on average 14 times a day, and it travels from your body at 7 mph. YUCK!
Morning Journal: What makes you super happy? Baking is making me very happy at the moment although I have unfortunately now run out of eggs! Disaster!
Feelings: What colour do you feel at this moment in time? I feel on green at the moment because I feel I am in the right mind set for my day!
Guided Reading:
https://www.booktrust.org.uk/books-and-reading/have-some-fun/storybooks-and-games/hairy-maclary/
We would like you to read along with the story Hairy Maclary from Donaldson's Dairy. (If you follow the link above, it should be there!)
Can you write down all the rhyming couplets that you can find.
For Example: Maclary and Dairy
English:
Now you have reminded yourselves on what rhyming couplets are. We are going to have a go a writing a new part of the story!
To help, I would write down your own list of rhyming words.
For example, Zoom and broom. New and crew. Hair and scare.
Maybe try doing this with a timer! How many rhyming couplets can you think of in a minute! GO!
Here are some examples:
You could even have a go at creating a new dog for the story!
Here is my example,
Hairy Maclary and Fluffy De-mipes,
Ran on the path and followed the pipes.
Hairy Maclary had his whole crew.
He was pleased with his friends, old and new!
Remember to have fun with this. You could even illustrate your own page for the book!
Maths:
MOS: Zoe baked 15 cupcakes and Darcie baked 19. Who baked more? Prove it.
Task: When looking at numbers, we know that the digits in numbers have special meanings for example 23 has 2 tens and 3 ones, 178 has 1 hundred, 7 tens and 8 ones.
We can also partition numbers like
63 = 6o and 3
195 = 100 and 90 and 5
Have a go at partitioning these numbers in these 2 ways.
Topic: Topic today is from BBC Bitesize – We are going to be learning about Neil Armstrong!
https://www.bbc.co.uk/bitesize/articles/zj93bdm
Neil Armstrong was the first man ever to walk on the Moon.
As he stepped onto the Moon, he said, “That’s one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind.”
Watch the first short animation to learn more about the achievements of Neil Armstrong. (Click on the link above)
There are lots of fun ways to show your historical knowledge of Neil Armstrong.
Here are a few you could try.
Activity 1
Asking questions about the past
A great way for children to learn about the past is to ask questions.
Together think of some questions you would like to ask about Neil Armstrong and keep them to use in activity 2.
Activity 2
Time travel
In the next short animation (Same link as above), Fatima and Ollie travel back in time to talk to Neil Armstrong.
Are you able to answer any of your questions from activity 1?
Activity 3
We would like to see how much you have learnt about Neil Armstrong! Can you answer these questions about him? (Sheet attached - Neil Armstrong Comprehension) There is three different challenges for you to choose from, Mild, spicy and hot.
Helping at home challenge : Dusting! When dusting you need to remember to very carefully put anything on the side that you are dusting on the floor, wipe it free of dust and then put the objects back in the right places.
We hope you have a lovely Monday :)
Lots of love
Miss Davey and Miss Keam

Wednesday 29th April:
Morning Team Sky and Team Ocean!
Thank you to everyone that sends us pictures, we just love seeing what you are getting up to!
Take a look at Freddie and Freya chilling out with some yoga yesterday!
Worries
Feeling worried is normal, just like all feelings. The problem is, sometimes our worries become very big and we can’t stop thinking about them. One very good way to stop our worries taking over our thoughts is to talk to someone.
Sometimes, talking to a familiar adult is a good idea. If you would like to let a school adult know that you are worried or feel unsafe in any way, please go to the Well-Being tab on our website and select ‘Worried?’ from the drop down menu. On the page, you will see a ‘Worry Button’. If you click the button, a box will appear and you can type a message. Your message will be sent to an adult from Chilton. They will find a way to help you.
Sometimes, talking to someone else can help. On the ‘Worried?’ section of the website, you will find lots of links to other websites. You can click on these and you’ll find information, contact numbers and details of people who are able to help you.
Remember, it is normal to feel worried sometimes but if your worry is all you can think about, it is best to talk to a grown up.
If you feel unsafe, for any reason, please contact us using the worry button or use one of the provided links to find help

Here is an example. Remember, you can choose any pet you wish!
Maths:
MOS:
Task: Today we will be using the greater than or less than symbols < = >… Charlie Crocodile signs! Charlie always likes to eat the greater number – this helps us to remember which way the signs need to go!

Morning Team Sky and Team Ocean! We are missing you lots today!
Thank you to everyone that sends us pictures and lovely emails!
Check out the poem Evie wrote for Monday's home learning! You are all working so hard.
There once was a dog,
Who lived in a bog,
His fur was puffy
And extremely fluffy!
He loved to sniff out bins,
But he was however, as neat as a pin
He chased the ball
And ended up in the pool!

In the first, short animation Circle, Triangle and Square learn about some everyday materials and what makes them different.
Here is a list of some everyday materials along with some basic properties and examples for each.
Glass – transparent (see through); hard
Examples – windows; TV screens
Wood – hard; strong
Examples – furniture
Metal – very hard; very strong
Examples – pans; cars
Plastic – can be bended and twisted into different shapes
Examples – drink bottles; school chairs
Fabric – soft; squashy; stretchy
Examples – clothes; cushions
Brick/rock – very strong; very hard
Examples – buildings; walls
Paper – bendy; light Examples – newspapers; books; posters
Cardboard - stronger than paper; not easily bended Examples - boxes
What are different objects made from?
Click on the picture below this title on the Bitesize website to find out what the different objects are made from and why.
There are lots of fun ways to try out your science skills.
Activity 1
Sort the objects
Using this activity, can you sort the objects into the materials they are made out of?
https://www.bbc.co.uk/bitesize/articles/z6kdwty (Under Activity 1 on the website)
Activity 2
Walk around your home and see if you can tell which material different objects are made from.
Think about why that material was chosen.
Helping at home challenge: This is one job that I’m not very good at… watering my plants! Take a small watering can and water the indoor plants. They only need a very little amount – I always count 1,2 for small plants and 1, 2, 3, 4 for bigger plants!
We hope you have a lovely day!
Lots of love

Maths:
MOS:
Task: Today we will be using our knowledge of numbers to round numbers to the nearest 10!
If the ones number is 1,2,3,4 we round it down to the smallest ten number. If the number ends in. 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 we round it up to the next ten number. For example
43 – would be round to 40 because 3 is closer to the smaller ten number of 40 than 50!
88 – would be round to 90 because 8 is closer to the bigger ten number of 90 than 80.
Have a go at rounding these numbers to the nearest 10 number!
|
78 51 46 55 |
124 189 118 163 |
267 381 452 788 |
Miss Davey thinks 101 should be rounded down to 90. Do you agree or disagree?

Topic:
Today we are going to look and compare the suitability of different everyday materials.
There are lots of different reasons why we need to use a range of materials.
What materials do we use everyday?
Please have a look at the lesson presentation attached. (Comparing Suitability)
After going through the presentation we would like you to complete the worksheet. It is completely up to you which activity you choose to do (There are 3!). Why not have a go at challenging yourself!
Helping at home challenge:
For today’s challenge, we would love for you to do your very own kind deed! This could be for someone in your family or maybe for you street! Could you create some chalk artwork that would make them smile? Could you make a card for someone? We know how important it is to make people smile and be happy but it is especially important at this time!
We hope you have a lovely day and we will be back again on Monday. Have a wonderful weekend.
Lots of love
Miss Davey and Miss Keam
