Reading and Spellings
Set up a classroom carpet area and read your reading books to your teddies and toys – remember to read expressively to them. When you have read them two books teach them your spellings – blow snow throw tomorrow followed shadow. How did they get on?
Maths
Start maths today by practising counting in 2s and 5s.
Maths is a practical measuring activity today. Watch and complete the activities on the video.
RE
Last week in RE you learnt about a miracle that Jesus performed called ‘The big picnic.’ Today you will be learning about another miracle – ‘Jesus calms the storm.’ Watch the short video here.
Have a think about how the people must have felt in the storm? Do you think they would have been frightened? How would they have felt after Jesus had calmed the storm?
Now either use a double page of your work book or turn your book horizontally and split your page in two. Today we’d like you to make a collage of during the storm and after the storm. You could use pieces of scrap paper or old magazines. You might have some useful bits of collage material in your recycling. Think about how you will create the rough sea and then the calm sea. Don’t forget to include the boat and the people and Jesus. We’d love to see a photo of your work!
Assembly
Finish the day by watching Mrs Toom talk about World Book Day and share some of her favourite stories. Click here.
