Home learning Mulberry Class

Thank you to all of you that are logging onto the Mulberry class blog and trying these activities with your children. I have included some websites with games you could play today too!

Mental maths

Challenge yourselves by completing the ‘Daily 10’, just like we normally do in school:

Choose Level 3/ addition / 2 digit numbers/ 10 secs 

OR

Practise your addition and subtraction to 20 and 100 


Maths – Weight

1) Look through your store cupboard and find foods that have their weight on the packet such as flour, tinned food and cereal. Make a list of different weights of foods in g or kg. Which are heavier or lighter? How much heavier is one item than another - use their weight and some maths to work it out? 

e.g. Flour is 2.5kg or 2500g
      Can of soup is 400 g
      So the flour is heavier. 2500 - 400 = 2100g
      The flour is heavier by 2100g or 2.1kg

2) Follow a recipe to make something to eat for your family. Look at the measurements in grammes or kilogrammes and use a set of scales to weigh out the ingredients.



I made these banana muffins yesterday by following a recipe, they tasted really yummy!

3) Try this website game. Click on 'mass' 




Literacy/Reading



Use this first paragraph of the Iron Man to write your own opening to a story, all about your own robot hero (from the last 2 days work) 
Use the paragraph above as a model to create your own opening to a story. 
Include: 

  • repeating phrases like 'Nobody knows' 
  • rhetorical questions (where you ask a question but don't expect an answer) such as 'Where did he come from?'
  • Simile about your own robot hero like 'Taller than a house' 

Extension – Continue the story of your robot hero. Be imaginative!
What happens to the hero? How do they become a hero? What does your robot do to help others?


Afternoon activity

French - We have been learning to name classroom objects and colours in French. 
Practise saying the French 'colour' words on your sheet, then colour in the picture 
(see sheet in learning pack)
See the French colours below if you need help.
