I have put links below to the Phonics Play website (www.phonicsplay.co.uk) for games and activities for /ar/ and /ur/ alternative spellings.

The site is free at the moment for home learning, but you may need to login.

You can login with the following details:

I have also added a link for Spelling Frame where you can practice the alternative spelling for /u/ as in brother.  The game, Snowball smash is free to use.

T: To write an opening that hooks (setting focus)

In this lesson we will develop detail about the character's feelings in the opening scene.

Watch the lesson video in the link below and complete the activities within it.

I look forward to reading your writing.

First, have a go at completing the Flashback activity.

T: To count vertices on 2-D shapes

Watch the video lesson below and complete the work sheet.

I have also attached a 'True or False' (T or F) question to make you think!

T: To listen to a story for enjoyment.

Listen to the story 'Smiley Shark' and then think about these questions:

How did the fish feel when they saw smiley shark smiling at them?

How does smiley shark save all the fish?

Who do the fish swim away from in the story?

Who does Smiley Shark talk to first?

Who pricked Smiley Shark's nose?

Who was twirling and dancing?

Who was blowing bubbles?

'Catch-up time' to complete any work you have not been able to do or finish from this week. 

Or to enjoy some free choice activity time!

We still have two lessons to complete from our English sequence Baba Yaga.

Have a go at completing these lessons during the half term holiday so that we can begin a new unit after half term.

T: To write an opening that hooks (action focus)

T: To write an opening that hooks (character focus)

Well done everyone for working so hard! 

Have a lovely week and I look forward to seeing you after half term for our Teams register meeting.
