Friday
Good morning everyone and welcome to our Friday learning activities. 
Well done and thank you for all of your hard work this week. Mrs Rogers and I have loved seeing all of your work. I've just had a little peek and I can see there are some exciting emails waiting for me. I will be replying to them shortly! I was in school this afternoon and it is Francesca's 15th birthday today so I am very late starting this page tonight. Will I get it done before the morning? YES I WILL!
I've just had a look at the weather forecast and there is a strong possibility of snow tomorrow so I'm going with a wintry/ snowy theme for tomorrow!
What are we learning today?
- Grammar work - when to use a full stop and when to use a question mark.
- RE linked - writng our 'Big Question.'
- Speed Sounds with Rosie
- Maths - making our own version of a traditional game; snakes and ladders.
- PE - hopefully in the snow
- Wintry Art
Work your way through the powerpoint to learn/ remind yourself when each should be used.
Put your learning to the test with these questions. You can choose from a one star or three star challenge. I think the three star should actually be a 2!

Our Maths Learning Today
Let's warm ourselves up with a mathletic workout! If your mums or dads are missing the gymns being open invite them to join in!
A fun challenge today!
Snakes and ladders is a toy that has been around for a long time in some form or other. It has been especially popular for around the last 70 years and so is game your grandparents probably played.
You have to roll the dice and move your counter up the square all the way up to 100. There is good news if you land at the bottom of a ladder; you can go up it. BUT if you lnd on the head of a snake you have to slide down to the bottom of the snake.
Example of snakes and ladders board. You can use this if you are unsure about making your own. (Year 1's)
My Maths homework will be set too.

Our afternoon activities
On Friday afternoons we usually have our outdoor PE session with Dan, so I'm going to encourage you to get outdoors for a walk, scooter or bike ride. If you have any snow enjoy playing in it!
Alternatively, Joe Wicks will be returning next week with his exercise classes. Until then here is a workout from our last home school time!
A Wintry Art Picture
I've put this in as an added extra. If you are inspired by the cold, crisp (possibly snowy) weather, then you can follow this video to create a beautiful picture.
You will need;
- Some masking tape (ask mum or dad)
- Water colours (pencils or poster paint will be ok too)
- A small amount of salt
