Worship - Combined with Mrs Spencer

Bible

Think of a time when you have felt "knocked down" by things that have happened to you.

Even though we can't have Jesus next to us, when we remember the promises in the Bible, it is like we can feel His hand holding us and hear His soft voice reminding us that He is our Friend and is willing to help us.

Look through your Treasure verse rings and choose your favourite verses to share with a partner.

Pray and thank Jesus for knowing what you need, for healing us, and for helping us. Thank Jesus for being our compassionate Friend. And pray for your classmates.

Just like Punchinello, we all want to fit in. To be accepted by the crowd. But at times that may mean we either have to look and act like others--or risk being rejected.

Enjoy this story and remember that Jesus is the best kind of friend!

Reading

Learning content:

read different types of texts using what you have learnt about letters and sounds, and by making sure that the words you read make sense by checking the meaning of the story

recognise and compare different kinds of texts, understanding why they were written and what they are about

be able to explain why you enjoy reading different types of text

Participate in reading group activities.

Here is a fun poem about a child who wants his dad to get him a pet.

Photograph and then read this poem aloud onto Seesaw. Glue it into your poetry book.

Daily Review

Task One

Have a look at the rectangles on this worksheet. Each rectangle is one whole shape. Colour in the fraction of each whole shape that is written beside them. Use the same colour for all the shapes.

Look at the first shape.

How much of it is coloured in?

How much more needs to be coloured in so that the whole rectangle is coloured in?

Now, using a different colour to before, colour in the remaining one third, so that the whole rectangle is now coloured. And write the fraction you have coloured in in numerals, next to the printed fraction, so that you can see both the fractions that are needed to colour in the whole shape.

Look at your shape. You needed to colour in one more third to add to the two thirds you had already coloured in, to make the whole shape coloured in.

Now work through the rest of the worksheet with your teacher.

Task Two

Now let's see how this works on a number line.

Take a coloured strip of paper and fold it in half, and then in half again. Open it out, and cut it into pieces along the fold marks. How many pieces do you have? What are the fractions called?

Now take one of the pieces and glue it on the first number line, right up against the 0. Underneath the line, make a mark like the one which shows where the zero is, and write 1/4. You are showing that you have gone one quarter (or one fourth) of the way along the number line.

How many more pieces would you need to glue on, in order to cover the whole number line?

Now write in the fractions at the end of each new piece that you have glued onto the number line. Describe to your partner what you have done to fill up the whole number line, using the words quarters.

Repeat this process, but fold your next strip of coloured paper into half only. Glue one piece onto your number line and label it. Then, using fractions, explain to your partner how much more you need to fill up the whole number line.

Do it again, but this time fold your strip of paper in half, then in half again, and then in half again. Glue three pieces onto your third number line, and label it. Repeat the process from before and, using the word eighths, explain to a different partner what you have done to fill up the whole number line.

Task Three

Take another strip of paper and mark on it with a pencil, where you think one third would be - remember that one third is a little smaller than one half.

Now fold the rest of the strip in half, and then cut it along the two marks (the first one that you drew, and the second one where you folded it). You should now have a strip of paper that it roughly divided into thirds.

Glue this along your fourth number line, and mark up the number line correctly.

If you have time, you could try doing something similar with another strip of paper. Only this time, make a mark where you think one fifth would be - remember that one fifth is a little smaller than one quarter. Then fold the rest of the strip in half and in half again. Then cut along your first mark, and the remaining folds. If you have estimated your first mark fairly accurately, you should now have a strip of paper that has been divided into fifths.

Task Four

Complete your Fractions post test in Essential Assessment.

Task Five

Today you are going to make a resource that we will use in future lessons on fractions, so look after it carefully. Use the pictures to help you think about what to do.

Carefully cut along the dotted line where it tells you to on each sheet. Be careful to only cut one page at a time, and don't catch any other pages.
Look carefully at the images shown to the right, and colour in your booklet, using a different colour for each fraction.
On the pages where there are circles, colour in the amount of the circle as instructed.
