Home Learning Week Beginning: 18.05.20
Year 4:
Dear Parent / Carer
We are so impressed with all of the writing that parents have been sending in. It is fantastic to see that you are supporting your children to continue with their learning under these difficult circumstances.
This week, we would like to give a focus to maths, so we are asking children to show us something they have been learning each day. We have included a grid that might be helpful, or children can use a double page of their book to set out their work. Please share this message with your child:
Hello Toucans, Iguanas and Chameleons,
We are very impressed with all of the brilliant writing you have been sending to us! This week, we would like to see your maths.
We would like you to show us something you have done in maths for each day, Monday to Friday.
Every day you need to use some of the maths resources to practise your maths skills, then choose how to show us what you have learned. You could create a grid to include each of the 5 days, or you could use subheadings and create an information page with explanations and examples from each of the maths activities you have done.
Remember that you can use:
Oak Academy: https://www.thenational.academy/information-for-parents-pupils/
BBC Bitesize daily lessons: https://www.bbc.co.uk/bitesize/dailylessons
My mini maths: https://myminimaths.co.uk/year-4-mini-maths/
Please send us your completed work on Friday, after you have done some maths for that day!
Our email address is: year4@whitehall.leicester.sch.uk
Keep enjoying your learning!
From the Year 4 team,
Ms Hewitt, Miss Chopdat, Miss Mahomed
Week Beginning 11.05.20
Dear Parent / Carer
We hope you were all able to enjoy a peaceful bank holiday weekend and are all safe and well.
Thank you to everyone who has sent us their child’s writing from last week. If you haven’t had a response, it should be on its way very soon. You can still send it to us; we would love to see it!
This week, please share the following task with your child and email the poems to us by Friday 15th May.
Thank you for helping us support your child’s learning,
The Year 4 team
Dear Iguanas, Chameleons and Toucans
You are doing a fantastic job with your writing and keeping up with your learning at home. This week, we would like you to be a bit creative! We have seen that a lot of you like writing poems, so that’s your task. We would like you to use your research about rain forests, or the human digestive system or respiratory system, to write a poem.
Your poem does not have to rhyme. It could be a shape poem, a kenning, or any sort of poem! You might find some ideas from these links:
https://www.bbc.co.uk/bitesize/articles/zr93bdm (poems by Allan Ahlberg) https://www.thenational.academy/year-4/english/features-of-poetry-year-4-wk1-3 (features of a poem)
Remember to use the resources on Curriculum Visions:
https://www.curriculumvisions.com/
Well done for keeping up with your multiplication practice – we are checking who is still using TTRS. It might be time for another class tournament soon! The lessons on Oak Academy are also very good for continuing your maths learning; this week it’s all about problems with measures and money.
Keep enjoying your learning and keep safe,
Miss Chopdat, Miss Mahomed and Ms Hewitt
Week Begining: 30.03.20
Dear Parent / Carer
This week, we thought that you might find it helpful to have some key questions to guide the afternoon topics and develop your child’s knowledge of the creativity and science topics that we were covering this term.
Please continue to use the suggestions for english and maths. Check the twitter page and school website for new ideas. The core English book for Year 4, on Curriculum Visions, is excellent for comprehension activities.
Hi Toucans, Iguanas and Chameleons!
This week our questions are:
Sikhism: Why is Vaisakhi an important festival for Sikhs? How is Vaisakhi celebrated?
Science: What is pitch? Investigate how the the pitch is changed in different instruments.
Art: Can I paint a goldfish in the style of Paul Klee?
We would love to see some of you completing these activities, along with the daily twitter challenges : head to the twitter page!
Have fun with your learning!
From Ms Hewitt, Miss Chopdat and Mrs Mahomed
