Revision and practise Video of the lesson

In this lesson, we will practise some of the concepts of shape and pattern.

Recap the names of 2D shapes and describe them.

Recap the names of 3D shapes and describe them.

 

Now for some pattern practice. You have practiced making patterns with 2D shapes but can you make them with 3D shapes? Which shapes can you use? Can you describe the shapes. You could draw the pattern of make it with objects in your home.

 

Now lets look at number patterns. 2 4 6 8 – what will be the next number and why? 10 20 30 40 – what will be the next number in the pattern and why? 6 5 4 – what will be the next number in the pattern and why?

 

Finish your learning today by looking at the patterns of 1 greater and 1 less, 1 more and 1 fewer.

What the ladybird heard

There are lots of activities to do with the book. In school we will be decorating biscuits, watching the illustrator video, acting out the story, pretending to be the animals and finding out about ladybirds.
Have a go at creating your own ladybird activities.

Can you also let us know your favourite story?

Pirates everywhere

This morning the children were interested in being pirates following on from some of them dressing up as pirates yesterday. We learnt how to make treasure maps and roll them up and then pretend to be pirates. We had so much fun as well as learning how to tear paper, new words to help us be pirates and to share ideas.

Well done pirates. You played nicely together sharing ideas and making stories.

Writing sentences

Today we are going to think about writing facts. What facts can we write about the bears? Think about where they live, what they eat and what they can do.
Choose a bear and write facts about it. What do we need to include in our writing?
At school we will be doing this as a collaborative activity. Perhaps you could ask your grown ups to share their ideas.

If you are gold describe the bear and where it lives, what it eats and what it can do. If you are green think about extra facts for the bear that you have chosen.

Describing 3D shapes

Describing 3D shapes Video of lesson

In this lesson, we will look closely at the properties of 3D shapes and talk about them, using new language to describe them.

You will need a tin, a cereal box and other shapes from around your house.

 

We will be using the words vertices, straight, curved, face and edge. Curved faces are known as curved surfaces. On a cone the vertex has a special name and it is an apex.

Repeat the sentence eg A cube has 6 flat faces.

 

Look at the shapes of objects in your home. What shapes are they? Can you describe them. If you are green standard compare objects saying what is the same and what is different about them.
