Week 2 – 27/04/20
Hi guys,
I hope you’re all safe and well? How did you get on last week?
Please follow the activities, lessons & structure on this website, as best as you can, as this is what we would be doing in school right now.
Keep using the books you took home too and, of course, AR, AMaths, Mathletics and Education City as they will all support your learning.
I had the pleasure of talking to some of you (and your parents) this week, I intend to ring you all ASAP. I can’t wait to hear your voices and have a little chat!

Maths
*** AMaths – please make sure you’re up-to-date with ALL your exercises and tests. I will be adding new objectives this week for length and perimeter ***
Continue with length and perimeter this week. Watch this video and complete the activities first:
Once you have done those, draw 5 random/different sized rectangles and calculate the perimeter in centimetres and then millimetres. Finally, can you work out the perimeter of your bedroom? Use a tape measure if you have one; otherwise just count your steps (you might need adult help for this).
Want to take it one step further..? Can you work out the relationship between area and perimeter?
Challenge: Draw a floor plan of your entire home and calculate the perimeter of all the rooms. Can you work out the area of this space?
You also have some activities related to this in Education City and Mathletics. If you haven’t done these yet, please do (remember, all your log-in details are in the front of your diary).
Times tables – use this website timestables.me.uk to generate speed quizzes - remember 60 questions (multiple & divide) with a 6 minute time cap – aim to get more accurate and faster over the week! FOCUS ON THE TIMES TABLES AND INVERSES YOU KNOW YOU NEED. Get an adult/older sibling to test you at the start and end of each week. Don’t worry if you can’t print out worksheets, just use paper.
Literacy
First of all, read chapter one of ‘Blast to the Past’. You can print this or just read the PDF file from your screen. After that, when the story is still fresh, complete this activity. If you can’t print, write it into a book. There are loads of fun, extra activities here to keep you busy. Feel free to do them all!
Journal Writing - imagine you are a Stone Age Child. What would a normal week look like to you? What would you do? Where would you go?
Tell me all about what you have been doing, where have you been and what have you seen? Give as much detail as you can, sharing what you have learnt about this period of time.,
Spellings – This week’s spellings are ‘more apostrophes’. Use these videos and practice sheet to assist you. It will help if you rewatch this video first: Introduction to the apostrophe.
