Learning from home – Weekly timetable

Announcements

Additional weekly activitiesAnnouncementsThis week we will begin using Seesaw Blogs. Seesaw Blogs is an

online platform for students to showcase the amazing work

they are doing to a wider audience. It also allows students to

connect and interact with their classmates through discussions

with their teacher and peers, creating an ongoing and genuine

experience.

Teachers will publish exemplary work that students have been

uploading throughout the week, and provide an opportunity for

students to provide feedback and/or comments. This gives

students an authentic audience for their posts, encouraging

quality work and creativity. In addition, teachers may ask a

question to prompt discussion and collaboration. All posts must

be approved by the teacher and in this secure and monitored

space students will learn how to be responsible members of an

online community.

2. Create a story and put on a puppet show using the characters you have created.

Puppet show

Read your favourite fairy tale.

Recreate each significant scene from the story using facial expressions and body language.

Remember, you can’t speak or move- you are frozen!

See if your family members can

guess which scene you are

acting out.

using your body to make different sounds and music.

Clap Your Hands

Clap them, clap them, clap them so.

Clap them high, clap them low.

Clap them left, clap them right.

Clap them, clap them out of sight.

Other verses: Roll them…. Shake them….

Challenge: Make as many sounds as you can

with different parts of your body. Try to create

I’ve Got the MovesTime to get up and moving! Choose a favourite song and let

your child dance along. Add some laughter to the activity and have your child follow along with your moves. Perhaps you

could follow their moves too.

“Be your child’s mirror! Stand face to face and mirror each

others actions without talking. Suggest different things to

mime such as your child’s favourite sport or an animal such

as the family pet!

Mime Yourself

your child to see who can play the best air guitar!

As If!Read each sentence out to your child and ask them to act it out for 30 seconds:

• Jog on the spot as if a big scary bear is chasing you • Walk forwards as if you are walking through a pool filled with ice-cream • Jump on the spot as if you are popcorn popping • Reach up as if you are grabbing balloons out of the air • March in place as if you are in a marching band • Shake your body as if you are a wet dog.

Turn on the radio or some music and DANCE until the song ends.

PE Choice Board Weeks 1 - 5 Choose a different fitness activity every day

Throwing and catching

Throw and catch – 1 player

Throw and catch on the spot. This is good for improving hand-eye coordination. Begin by catching with 2 hands and then move to one hand. You can make this more difficult by adjusting the height of the throw or switching to your non-dominant hand.

Throw and catch – 2 players

This activity can be done with a brother/sister or parent. Practice throwing and catching a ball to each other using your dominant and non-dominant hand. You can increase difficulty by adding a ‘trick’ between each throw such as a clap, two claps, a spin etc.

Wall ball – 1 or 2 players

For this activity you will need a wall or fence. Start by throwing the ball against the wall and catching it as it rebounds. See how many times you can throw and catch the ball without dropping it!

Whole Number/Time

Whole Number

Using a bunch of paddlepop sticks estimate and count how many there are to the nearest 10. On a piece of paper put the headings estimate and count. Fill in each column.

Have someone write 10 two-digit numbers for you. Write the number that comes before and after each of these numbers. Challenge: What is the number 10 before and 10 after? Can you choose three-digit numbers and write the number before and after these?

Time

Construct a ‘seasons’ book, poster or season wheel using drawings, online images or from

magazines. Compile lists of words or sentences to go with each season. Order the months of the year and then match them to

the seasons.

Addition and Subtraction/Area

Addition and Subtraction

Use a deck of cards. Turn over 2 cards at a time and write the addition and subtraction sum for each. Eg 9 + 7 = 16, 9 - 7 =2

Draw a number line from 1-27. Place a counter on 14. One person is adding, the other is subtracting. Take turns to roll a dice and add or subtract the number shown. The player who gets to either end of the number line first is the winner.

Area

Choose an object to cover an area, such as a table, with eg envelopes, lids, books.

Estimate how many of your object it would take to cover the area and then measure it to see if you are correct. Choose another object

to measure with. Does it take the same amount of this object to cover it?

Multiplication and Division/2D Shapes

Multiplication and Division

Use 10 counters and split them into equal groups. How many different equal groups can you make?

Try this with 12, 16 and 20 counters as well.

Draw and write a sentence saying how many groups with how many counters ie 2 groups

of 5 counters = 10

2D ShapesChoose 10 objects around your house.

Guess which items will be heavier or lighter. Place one object in each hand (hefting) and

record which is heavier and lighter.

Whole Number/Mass

Whole Number

Have someone choose 5 two-digit numbers for you. Write the numbers in words and numerals, and draw the tens and ones blocks that represent your numbers.

Create a blank hundreds chart. Time yourself completing the hundreds chart. Can you beat your time?

Mass

Choose 10 objects around your house. Guess which items will be heavier or lighter. Place one object in each hand (hefting) and

record which is heavier and lighter.

Multiplication and Division/Area

Multiplication and Division

Draw a pattern using objects or symbols and describe it to someone. Eg. There are two squares, one circle etc

Practise skip counting. Choose a target number eg 100. Select a number to count by - two, fives or tens. Take turns to skip count by this number saying either the next 1,2 or 3 numbers in the skip counting sequence.

Push or Pull

Lesson Topic Week 2- Investigating moving toys

Learning Intention

I can investigate how toys move in different ways

Success Criteria

I will know I am successful if I can:- Make toys move by giving them energy- Think about and answer questions about how my toy moves- Investigate movement using a ball

Week 2 Task

WHAT TO DO - Task 1- Choose a toy that can move, eg. Toy car, ball, spinning top, doll with moving parts

etc… - While playing with the toy, investigate and ask these questions:

- How does it move? (i.e. it rolls)- What parts move? (i.e. wheels) - What action makes it move? (i.e. push)

Different toys will move in different ways, have different parts that move and will require different actions to make them move. Have fun investigating how your toys move.

WHAT TO DO - Task 2

How many different ways can you make a ball move? - Investigate different actions you need to make a ball move in different ways.

i.e. Roll (push away), bounce (push down), throw (push up), spin (turn it around).

WHAT’S HAPPENING to my Toy

Toys need an action to make them move. You may need to push it or spin the toy to make it move. When you push or spin a toy you are giving energy to the toy to make it move.

Some moving toys use batteries and electricity to make them move. These types of toys still need an action – you usually have to turn them on with a switch to create an electrical circuit before they can move.

Using Push and Pull to move your body

DID YOU KNOW

People can move too – How can you move?

We can move our arms, legs and head. We can also move our whole body.

• Can you walk, crawl, run, jump, skip, spin and turn around? Which part of your body moves when you do these different actions?

• When people walk, run or jump we push off the ground with our legs and feet. Try jumping and feel how you push off the ground.
