This morning in our Phonics session, we were learning to read the tricky words 'have', 'like', 'some' and 'come'.
Your English task today is to carry on with your stories - it was great to find out about your characters and I'm looking forward to hearing more about them so today I would like you to think about the Build-up and Problem in your stories. You can either write or draw them - you could use the story mountain underneath this to help.

Today, we learnt about how animals adapt to the change in season around winter time. We learnt how some animals HIBERNATE, some MIGRATE and some ADAPT in other ways. I'd like you to choose an animal and tell me what it does to survive the winter.
If you want to recap on how animals adapt in winter, this is the presentation we looked at in the lesson.

Berny joined us this morning to give us a silly sentence to write. If you want to practise your phonics, play 'Dragons Den' on Phonics Play (Phase 4, Set 1-7). Today's English task is to write your improved version of the story, 'The Dreamer' in words. Please post them on Seesaw - I'm looking forwards to reading them.

Today, we are thinking about Churches. They are special places for Christians. What is your special place? What makes it special?
RE - Pictures of churches. What do you notice? What is the same? What is different?
Maths - Thursday 14 January
Today, we are practising how to use number bonds to add. We learnt that knowing 3+7 helps us know what 13+7 or 3+17 is. Have a look at today's video on the White Rose link that I posted earlier this week if you weren't able to join us. If you finished the work I posted yesterday, please have a go at using what you know about number bonds to 10 to work out your number bonds to 20. If you find making 20 too easy, have a go at working out your number bonds to 37 (remember, you can use number bonds to 7 to help you).
