Maths

Today in our online Maths lesson at 9:55 we will be learning how to use arrays to answer times tables questions. Arrays are great to use when we don’t know all of the time times tables, especially those tricky 3 times tables. The example below shows how an array is used to answer 3 x 4 =

Break

Times table Practise

Today we would like you to log onto Times Tables Rock Star and spend some time practising the 2, 5, 10 and 3 times tables. We can’t wait to see how well you all do so please send us a picture on Class Dojo.

11:35 – 12:25

English

During our online lesson we will be looking at the sequencing activity that you completed earlier on and we will be writing the step by step instructions that go with each picture. When writing instructions we often use time connectives such as: first, finally, after that, next and then. The sentence below shows how the time connective first has been used.

First take the bread and jam from the cupboard.

The sentence above also has an imperative or bossy verb in it. The verb take is the bossy word in this sentence as it tells the reader what to do.

Once we have completed the online lesson together we would like you to finish writing the instructions for the jam sandwich ensuring you use bossy verbs and time connectives.

12:25 – 1:25

Lunch

1:25 – 2:05

RE

Last week in RE we were thinking about celebration meals and what special food we eat during these celebrations. There is a very special meal called the Seder meal which is eaten by Jewish people during Passover. The story of Passover tells of how God freed the Israelites from slavery in Egypt. Please watch the video below which tells the story of Passover.

On the night that the Israelites escaped slavery God told them that they must eat certain items each year to remember the exodus. The items that they eat each year can be found on the Seder Dish PowerPoint in the resources section of the class webpage. We would like you read all about the Seder Plate to find out what each food item represents. Once you have finished reading the PowerPoint we would like you to download the Seder plate activity sheet and fill in all the information about the meaning of the various food items, please write this information in your own words.
