Summer 2 week 5 - 29.6.20

Our new gazebo-A big sunny THANKYOU to The Friends Of Nightingale!

MathsThis week it’s Statistics: The children should be able to:Interpret and construct simple pictograms, tally charts, block diagrams and simple tables. Ask and answer simple questions by counting the number of objects in each category and sorting the categories by quantity. Ask and answer questions about totalling and comparing categorical data.

Session 1 Make a tally chart! Either tip out a bag of smarties or skittles or for the energetic amongst you tally how many exercise you can do in a minute…

Session 2 could be constructing a pictogram from your results. Remember your pictures don’t all have to be the same they could be the different coloured skittles or

they could be the exercise that you did. Your pictogram is just that a chart of pictures. Make sure it is labelled.

A pictogram to show how many exercises I can do in 30 secondsConstructing the pictogram is very important- children may need support in

constructing the pictogram but we have done this in class-this should be revision!Session 3 could then be a session of asking and answering questions about the

pictogram, such as: How many star jumps did you do? How many throw and catch? Which exercise could I only do 2 of? Which exercise was I really good at? How many

more star jumps did I do than jumps on the trampoline? What was my total altogether? (There are so many questions!!).

Session 4 is a bit more tricky, if you think your child needs more practise at making pictograms choose fruit in your bowl, coloured cars you can spot from your window

etc.For this session we would ask the children to move away from a pictogram where 1 picture = 1 and look at 1 picture = 2, so the above pictogram would look like this…

So three hearts = 6One heart = 2

(Half a heart = 1 so press ups is 11).Our last session again would have been problem solving so…

Try this one!https://nrich.maths.org/2341/note

If you need the resources for this they are at the end of this planning along with some more problem solving!

Recipe of the weekOur recipe of the week will be slightly different this term. To tie in with our

Design and technology curriculum the children should…

*use the basic principles of a healthy and varied diet to prepare dishes and understand where food comes from.

So… Make sure you have an adult supervising you and get ready for some easy child friendly meals!

ENJOY!

LiteracyClaude in the city

Our Power of Reading book for this term.

Watch https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=44A-uUYjyTE

Read/watch the rest of the story. Do you think Claude did the right thing in the end? Why or why not? What did you like and/or dislike? - Did anything surprise you? Why? - Did you find anything particularly

interesting? Why? - Did the story remind you of anything in real life or in other stories?Think about what was your favourite part of the story where Claude and Sir Bobblysock went to the

hospital. Draw a picture of your favourite part of the story and describe it. Remember to say why it is your favourite.

Think about the two adventures that Claude and Sir Bobblysock have been on. What was similar? What was different? Draw a story map for one of the adventures. (Claude in the art gallery or Claude in the hospital)

Remember to use words like first, next, after that, then etc when writing captions for each of the pictures in your story map. (warning parents – sometimes these story maps can end up on very long pieces of paper)

Write a book review for the story – Claude in the City.Think of some ideas for your own adventure for Claude and Sir Bobblysock. Create a story map for your

story. What adventures might happen to Claude, where might he go? What might he see? Who might he meet?

Now write a story to go with your story map. Remember to think about which exciting vocabulary you can use to describe the different things in your adventure. What might Sir Bobblysock be doing?

Don’t forget to practise neat handwriting too!!Try these comprehension questions.

Phonics

Remember to read each day, discuss the story, predict what may happen, why the characters are behaving the way they are. Can you sum up and review the story that you have read? Keep up with learning those Year 2 spellings. Reading these words is also important. Make sure you practise the

phase 5 sounds.Can you make rhyming sentences using different sounds…so for the ay sound…

Jane used her brain when she played on the plane! Sue and Lou found a blue shoe.Try making a rhyme each day with a different sound.

TopicThis week our objective is:To learn about the work of a range of artists, craft makers and designers, describing the differences and similarities between different practices and disciplines, and making links to their

own work.So this week we are looking at Batik and the work of Indonesian craft makers…

Now to make a wax resist we would often use crayons to make a picture then paint over with watery paint but this week if you can, have a go at this…To make a flour batik

FlourWaterMeasuring JugOld FabricPaintInstructions -

1) Mix equal amounts of flour and water in a measuring jug to make a paste with a similar consistency to a batter mix.2) Get a thin paintbrush to paint a line picture with the flour/water mix onto old fabric. It should be thick enough not to seep through the fabric. Leave to dry.3) Once dry apply the paint evenly all over the fabric. Leave to dry4) When the paint is dry, peel of the flour/water mixture and this will reveal the fabric underneath.

Have a look on the Goldfinch message this week to find out how I did it.

It was really food fun!ScienceThis term our objective is for the children to…

Describe the importance for humans of exercise, eating the right amounts of different types of food, and hygiene.

Following on from all your great work last week and all that you found out playing the game – can you fill in this. What things can you do to make yourself clean? Why do humans need to keep clean?

You could also create a poster explaining about the importance of hand washing and how and when we should be washing our hands.

Statistic problems

They collected cards with ladybirds on them.

Here are the cards they had at the end of the game:

Aisha:

Ben:

Carmel:
