Good Morning everyone!

Here is the new Home Learning Grid for the next 2 weeks:  home learning grid 5

Literacy – Weekend News

Today is the 1st June, a new month! I hope you all had a great weekend and managed to spend some time outdoors. Perhaps you finally got to see some family?!  I’m sure it will have been a special weekend for many of you and I would love to hear what you did, who you saw and how you felt.   Please write your weekend news in your jotter and draw a picture to go with it.  Remember to include:

• punctuation – at least capital letters and full stops!
• openers – At the weekend…   Yesterday…   On Saturday….
• connectives – and      but    because      so
• adjectives – think of interesting describing words to explain what you did and how you felt.

Maths – 3D Shape

Last week you practised naming and describing 3D shapes.  Today we are going to practise making a 3D shape by creating a net.  A net is what a 3D shape looks like if it is opened out flat.

Watch the video first:

Next, see if you can carefully deconstruct a cardboard box (cereal, teabags, biscuits etc) to have a look at the net.  What 3D shape does the net make?  Can you draw around the net to make another one?

For a challenge, have a look at this activity and see if you can work out which nets will make a cube:

Have a lovely morning,
