Dear Hazel Class, I hope you enjoyed last week’s tasks and had fun with the weekly challenge. Don’t forget to check the school website for this weeks! Here is your learning for this week. I have put lots of different suggestions on there so there will be something everyone enjoys. Please don’t feel like you have to complete every task but if mums and dads ask you to, it is really important that you do because I have asked you to! The key tasks I would like you to complete are: Daily Spellings Daily maths (White Rose, times tables or arithmetic) I have written your writing activities for this week in the writing section! I hope you like my invention. At least 15 minutes of reading a day – I have just started reading The Firework Makers Daughter by Phillip Pullman. I’ve wanted to read this book for ages and have read so many fantastic reviews. The picture on the front cover makes me think it will be about volcanoes. I wonder if the ‘firework maker’ is an erupting volcano. I’ll let you know what I think next week. A key priority is still your well-being. In uncertain times like this, it is more important than ever to be kind! Think carefully about what you can do at home to be kind to your family. I’ve been trying to do small acts of kindness (tidying up, making cups of tea, and telling jokes) at home to put a smile on people’s faces. I wonder what things you could do to spread happiness within your family. Last week I was working at school, I was so tired at the end of each day but still managed to take Sybil out for her daily walk. She likes to walk 5km each day! Thank you to all the children who have been sending me their fantastic work. I really enjoy seeing your wonderful projects and reading your writing. You all know how much I love to drink a nice cup of tea whilst I read your stories. Sybil enjoys listening to them too. Keep working hard, you are doing amazing. Look after yourselves and stay safe. Missing you all lots, Miss Storey [email protected]

Dear Hazel Class,
I hope you enjoyed last week’s tasks and had fun with the weekly challenge. Don’t forget to check the school website for this weeks! Here is
your learning for this week. I have put lots of different suggestions on there so there will be something everyone enjoys. Please don’t feel like
you have to complete every task but if mums and dads ask you to, it is really important that you do because I have asked you to!
The key tasks I would like you to complete are:
Daily Spellings
Daily maths (White Rose, times tables or arithmetic)
I have written your writing activities for this week in the writing section! I hope you like my invention.
At least 15 minutes of reading a day – I have just started reading The Firework Makers Daughter by Phillip
Pullman. I’ve wanted to read this book for ages and have read so many fantastic reviews. The picture on the
front cover makes me think it will be about volcanoes. I wonder if the ‘firework maker’ is an erupting volcano.
I’ll let you know what I think next week.
A key priority is still your well-being. In uncertain times like this, it is more important than ever to be kind! Think
carefully about what you can do at home to be kind to your family. I’ve been trying to do small acts of kindness
(tidying up, making cups of tea, and telling jokes) at home to put a smile on people’s faces. I wonder what things you could do to spread
happiness within your family. Last week I was working at school, I was so tired at the end of each day but still managed to take Sybil out for her
daily walk. She likes to walk 5km each day!
Thank you to all the children who have been sending me their fantastic work. I really enjoy seeing your wonderful projects and reading your
writing. You all know how much I love to drink a nice cup of tea whilst I read your stories. Sybil enjoys listening to them too. Keep working hard,
you are doing amazing. Look after yourselves and stay safe.
Missing you all lots,
Miss Storey
Year 4 Home Learning Menu Week beginning 18.5.20
P.E. Creative (Music, Art, Drama)
Joe Wicks has become the UK’s PE teacher. Go on you tube at 9.00am every day to follow along.
If you have not access to You tube, can your child make up their own workout for you and the rest of the family to have a go at.
The Daily Mile – 1 mile or 15 minutes of exercise a day!! I’ve been
going on a daily walk of 5km – 3miles! I wonder if you can record your walking/running/hopping/jumping
distance and covert them?
You will need:
Family or friends
A space to play
A towel
A small ball How to play:
Divide into two teams.
Each team stands holding the opposite corners of the towel.
Keeping it flat, place a small ball in the middle of the towel.
Tip the towel to try to make the ball run off the other team’s end.
The winner is the one who manages to get the ball to run off the other team’s end.
There are some online classes being offered for example Emma Scott runs an art session online at 2pm every day.
Drama: See English link – Dragon’s Den
For this week, I’d like you to focus on your speaking and listening
skills in drama. Think about how you present your invention to your
friends and family. What can you do with your voice and bodies?
ART: In art this week, I would like
you to recreate a mask that
shows your personality in the
style of Picasso.
Think about how you are feeling
at the moment and explore
different colours that could show
your emotion.

Can you consume books? 5. Do you have a balanced reading diet? 6. Which genre is your favourite? 7. Is it important to read a variety of texts? Does reading ‘broaden the mind’? 8. How can you encourage yourself – and others – to read a range of fiction and non-fiction?
Some suggested texts: Want to listen to a book? Check out this link!! https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLEA3D5C281A1511A3
Reluctant Readers – Suggestions:
This must be why I am
enjoying reading so
much at the moment
Promoting Reading at home: Set a good example by letting your children see you read. Listening to you summarize your book teaches your children how to take
what they've read, absorb it and condense it.
Use pre-reading comprehension techniques. Before reading a book, have your child look at the cover and the inside pictures and
predict what the story is about.
Play board games with your children. Board games require putting into action everything that is read, and can help increase reading
comprehension. Help your children read the instructions to a new board game or review the rules of an old favourite. Ask if they'd like
to change the rules or game play slightly and implement their suggestions.
Play Hangman. The simple word game is a good way to build your child's vocabulary. It only requires a pencil and paper and can
easily be played
Use the book club discussion questions in the back of books. Many chapter books include discussion questions for book clubs, which
provide good discussion points for at home book talks.
Play with inflection. Try this with your young child: Read a line from a book and have your child repeat it back to you with dramatic
expression, inflection and phrasing.
Challenge:
Can anyone think of a different way to read at home? Please email me if you find yourself reading without
realising and I’ll put your ideas on next week’s sheet for everyone to see.
If you read any good books, email me their cover and I’ll put them on next week’s sheet with your name
and why you recommended it!

Writing
Dragon’s Den Thank you Miss Sutherland who inspired this learning with her challenge last week! Your Challenge: To create a useless item and persuade someone in your family to buy it. You need to design and make an item that is completely useless – Miss Sutherland had paper shoes. My invention is a watering can that doesn’t pour water. My persuasive argument: Do you hate refilling your watering can? Do you always make a mess and spill water everywhere? Do your children always bring the muddy watering can through the kitchen and leave mud splats on the clean kitchen floor? If so, I have the perfect product for you. This super stylish watering can is the latest must have accessory for any garden!* It comes in a variety of bold, eye-popping colours and designs. Fill it up once and I promise you will never have to refill again. No more messy floors! No more nagging from the children! 100%** of customers agreed that this was the best watering can they had ever used. Get yours today with huge saving of 50% off!! A bargain price of £25.99! You would be crazy to miss this wonderful opportunity. *The company takes no responsibility for the lack of water provided to plants when using this watering can. **100% of customers agreed – 2 customers asked.
Activities you must do:
Design and label your invention
Describe what your invention does and why you have made it.
Write a persuasive argument to convince a member of your family to use the invention. Other ideas you might like to do:
Create a written advert/poster/PowerPoint presentation for your invention
Make a TV/Radio advert for your invention
Make and test the invention and record what happens
Set up a ‘Dragons Den’ show in your house and encourage other members of your family to join in
Maths

1. How many hours are there in a day? Count the numbers on the clock twice
2. How many minutes in an hour? 3. How many seconds in a minute? 4. Draw/show a time on a clock. Ask the children what the time
is. Repeat with different times. Ask them what the time would be in one hour? Half an hour? 10 minutes?
