This week we are trying a different way of setting your home learning. This work will link to a lot of the paper sheets you can pick up from school.
Click on the picture and then try clicking on different parts of the image. You should be able to find a whole range of videos, website links and tasks to do.
Use the email us link to send some feedback or a picture of your work.

In class this week we are going to be playing with bubbles. You can join in too, if you have bubble mixture (or washing up liquid) and a wand at home. Take some photographs and send them to us. Or you could look at these pictures of bubbles.
How many different things do you notice about the bubbles?
Why do you think the bubbles are round?
What makes them burst?
Can you draw a bubble? How could you make it look real?
MAKE A BUBBLE CATERPILLAR
To make a bubble caterpillar you will need bubble mix, a bubble wand and a straw.
Have fun!
Sometimes I lie upon my bed
And let my dreams float round my head.
Sometimes I think the strangest things
Like I’m a bird and I’ve got wings!
This is the beginning of a poem about dreams. We all have them and sometimes they are so strange! What strange dreams have you had? Can you remember?
Think about these questions…..
Do impossible things happen in dreams? Do you think dreams can ever come true? Can you dream during the day?
Draw or paint a picture of a strange dream. Don’t forget – in a dream objects can be any size or colour. Here is one by an artist called Marc Chagall, he painted many of his dreams.
When we say things they can make other people happy or sad. A lot of people are worried at the moment. Can you think of some things you could say to people that would make them happy? Please send us a picture of your messages and we can make a message board to cheer everyone up.
You could put your messages up around the house to cheer up your family.
Have a look at my pictures. Which of these things are alive and which are not alive?
How do you know they are alive? Can you think of some things that help us to know whether something is alive?
Can you make a list of items in your house that are alive, that are not alive and maybe a list of some things that used to be alive.
What is 2 meters?
You might have heard a lot about keeping 2 meters away from people you do not live with so that everyone stays safe and we do not share our germs. Meters are a way of measuring how long something is. So what does 2 meters look like?
Here is Ekram lying next to a 2meter sign. He is nearly the same length!
Can you find a measuring tape or ruler at home and see how long 2m is!
I measured it at home and found 
it was the same as 6 and a half of the CGP books.
Birthday Food! We all love birthday food and especially at a party. Some of you have even had your birthdays in lockdown. Did you eat anything special?
Can you draw and label some birthday food and then colour it in? Look at the picture below showing some ideas of what to eat.Your next task is to write the shopping list for all the birthday food. Remember to include things you really like too. Give your list a heading: My List of Birthday Food.
Here is the start of my shopping list:
My List of Birthday Food
crisps
party ring biscuits
cheese and pineapple on sticks
You can send us your lists and we’ll see if it makes us hungry!
Halves and Quarters:
Lesson 1: Finding half of an amount. Did you do last week’s work on cutting shapes in half? Now we will find half of an amount. First watch the video.
Now make your own lady birds. Remember to share the spots equally between the 2 wings so half are on each wing.
What numbers can you halve and what numbers are hard to halve? eg 6 spots, 8 spots, 10 spots, 14 spots.
You can also practice halves on p37 of your Key Stage 1 maths book.
Lesson 2: What is a quarter? We find a quarter by cutting a shape into 4 equal parts. Look at the video.
Then copy some of these shapes.
Can you colour in 1/4 of each shape?
Lesson 3: Finding a quarter of an amount. Watch the video. Remember we find a quarter by sharing into 4 equal groups. 
Explore different numbers. What numbers can you share into quarters? Can you share these numbers into 4 equal parts? 8, 10, 12, 15, 16, 17, 20?
You can also practice quarters on p39 of your Key Stage 1 maths book.
Lesson 4: Do you feel confident in finding halves and quarters? Why not try my quiz to see how well you do. Remember to include your name.
I wonder how many points you will score!
Sahiba and Rahifa sent in lovely big pictures of themselves. 
Can you make one too?
I wonder how many different parts of your body you could label. Here are some words to help you.
Next week is our half term holiday. We are not allowed to go anywhere on holiday at the moment, but we can use our imaginations and pretend!!
We want you to plan your own pretend UK holiday. You can pick anywhere in the United Kingdom that you would like to visit. Here are a few ideas:
Plan your holiday:
Go on your holiday!! (or pretend to)
When you have made your plan, maybe you and your family can act out your holiday
Finally: Can you make a postcard to send to Jo and Alison? 
You should draw a lovely picture on one side of something you saw on your holiday and then write a letter to tell us everything you did. We can’t wait to hear all about your pretend holidays. (Maybe we will do one too!) If you live near the school you could post it in the school post box on Wilmot Street.
