Reading

It is great that so many of you are changing your books regularly. Just let us know when you need some more. We have loved seeing the videos of your reading.

Your reading challenge today is to talk about your book. Who is your favourite character? Why? Would you like to live in this setting? Why/why not?

Remember you can also find a huge library of eBooks at the Oxford Owl (link in the Home Learning button at the top of out class page).

Phonics

To warm up today, play a game of buried treasure with OU sounds. Read your words carefully making sure to read every sound in the word.

Today we are spotting OW and OU words in a game of sounds spotter. Visit Seesaw to listen to the start of the story (How Silly) and complete the activity attached below.

R.E.

Shrove Tuesday and Ash Wednesday are during our half term holiday. Shrove Tuesday, also known as Pancake Day, is celebrated on the last day before Lent. It precedes Ash Wednesday, the beginning of Lent.  During Lent we think about Jesus and try to live our lives a little bit more like him. Lent is the time when we get ready for Easter. We make a Lenten promise. This is something you will try to do every day.Think about what your promise will be.It could be to help someone in your family, say an extra prayer, make sure you always use your manners-what other ideas have you got?

Draw a picture of you doing your Lenten promise on the leaf. Cut it out and stick it somewhere you will see it every day.

DT / Engineering

Today we are going to challenge you to some Rapunzel problem solving. Below you will find a video telling the story of Rapunzel with a little twist. This is an engineering fairy tale.

Attached is the activity brief for the challenge and an example of how you could complete the challenge. Good luck. Post your solutions to Seesaw!
