10:15 Maths

Log in to mathletics.com using the login details you took home last week. There is a guide to using Mathletics here. Then:

• Aim to finish all your overdue homework tasks – any tasks you didn’t manage last

Now let’s look at Times Table Rockstars – go to play.ttrockstars.com and log in. Your tasks for today are to play at least:

• three sessions in the Garage
• one session in the Studio
• one Soundcheck

Don't forget, you can do more sessions if you want to improve your scores and earn more coins. Mr Martin has reminded me that The Studio is where you will build up your Rock Speed – you’ll be given this once you finish at least 10 Studio sessions, so if you haven’t been there yet, get rehearsing! The Soundcheck may be new to you – it’s a thrilling race against the clock, where you have six seconds to answer each of 25 questions. If you don’t do well on your first go, don’t give up, just try again! Once again, please finish by writing about your Maths in your Learning Diary.

Also 4B there will be new TT Rockstars Competitions starting later this week! Let's all do our best to get practicing! (You can even challenge me if you like!)

Again, write about your investigation of Mathletics in your new Learning Diary. Have you found anything that might help you with our Fractions topic?

11:00 Break



Take a brain break! It's important to take regular screen breaks!

11:15  Literacy - Persuasive Writing

Find the English Week 1 pack from the Year 4 Week 1 menu. Your first lesson is to look at some texts, and make a list of persuasive writing features. Publish your list to the class blog using j2e5.

12:00 Lunch

Remember to wash those hands!

If you didn't take home the Rainforest Project Pack (or lost it), you can find it on the Year 4 Week One menu or with this link. I would like you to start on the making project:

build a 3D model of the rainforest!!

You can use whatever materials or technique you like, so long as it shows us information about rainforest layers, and the creatures who live there. Some children have written to let me know they haven't any boxes at home. That is fine, for those of you who haven't any you could make a collage, make a 3D rainforest without boxes! Get creative!

This probably will take more than one day but you should start getting your resources together from around the house. You could write in our class blog and tell us your idea!

1.45   Break

Let's take a brain break and do some warm ups to get our bodies working!

2:00 Home learning diary



You have time now to write in your home learning diary. I really enjoyed reading the entries from yesterday, but I would like it even more if more children from 4B could fill them in! Here are some prompts:



• Do you think that you've learned anything today?
• How will learning at home be different to learning in school?
• What will be better, and what will be worse?
• Have you discussed your weekly timetable with your family yet? If so, can you tell me about it?
• Have you talked about a new skill that you'd like to learn over the next few weeks, with your adults?

Even if you choose to keep your diary in a real book, I'd like you to tell me about it today on j2e5, so that I know what your plans are.

2.15  Independent reading for pleasure

Use your Reading Journal or Learning Diary to record all your reading

3.00 Hometime :D

I hope you all have a lovely evening!
