25/11/2020

 
Good morning Year 4! How are you today? We are half way through the week already and you have all been working hard from home. 
Have a great day of learning and let us know how you get on by emailing 
year4@bgfjs.org

Here is today's timetable:

PE with Joe Wickes 

It's time to start the day off with a bang. Grab your water and get ready to work out with Joe Wicks! Remember to start off with plenty of stretches. 

Maths

Let's warm up. Can you find the number bonds to these numbers?

Today you are going to look at number lines up to 1000.

Watch the video on White Rose Home learning - year 3 - Week 2: Number: place value LESSON 4 (Number line to 1000) to remind you of the different methods to help you do this - remember to pause the video when it asks you a question to give you some thinking time. Watch it more than once if you would like.
WEEK 2: PLACE VALUE LESSON 4

Click on the buttons to download the worksheet.  
Number line to 1000
Remember to also spend 30 minutes completing activities on Mathletics as well as practising times tables on Times Tables Rock Stars.

Break

Time for another brain break. Go grab yourself a drink and talk to someone about how you’re doing! Remember to wash your hands with soap for 20 seconds before getting something to eat or after going to the toilet!

Joke: Why are teddy bears never hungry?
Answer: They’re always stuffed!


Remember, if you have any questions or would like to send your work for us to see or tell us funny jokes, email us at: year4@bgfjs.org (don't forget to include your name on the email so we know who it's from!)

Literacy 

Let's warm up. Can you complete these sentences? Remember to read back to see that they make sense.

What to do today

1. Re-read ‘The Princess and the Pea’ by Hans Christian Anderson
• Read the story again, in your head and out loud. What can you spot new, when you read it this second time?
• Look at the picture called ‘Garden Scene’. This is from a version of the story by a writer called Lauren Child. The Prince is talking to the King and Queen. What do you think they could all be saying?

2. Write some speech
• Look at ‘Dialogue Scenes’ – these are scenes from the story. Make up some speech for each of the speech bubbles. Write it in ‘Dialogue Ideas’.
• Now try writing some of your ideas as direct speech with punctuation. Use the Revision Card and Dialogue Checklist to remind you how to do this.

Try this Fun-Time Extra
• Make your own miniature world, like the pictures in Lauren Child’s book.

Remember to also spend 30 minutes reading books and answering questions on Active Learn Primary. 
ACTIVE LEARN
Lunch

It’s time to relax. First things first, remember to wash your hands with soap for 20 seconds before you eat! What will you be devouring for lunch today? Something mouth-watering and deliciously healthy?

Riddle: What is yours but others use it more than you?
(The answer will be revealed at the end of the day...)

History

Who were the Vikings?

The Viking age in European history was from about AD700 to 1100. During this period many Vikings left their homelands in Scandinavia and travelled by longboat to other countries, like Britain and Ireland.

When the people of Britain first saw the Viking longboats they came down to the shore to welcome them. However, the Vikings fought the local people, stealing from churches and burning buildings to the ground.

The people of Britain called the invaders 'Danes', but they came from Norway and Sweden as well as Denmark.

Story time

You've worked hard today and now it's time to sit back and relax for another story. Michelle Obama will be reading "The Gruffalo" by Julia Donaldson! Enjoy this time listening to a classic with your siblings and parents.

Remember you should be aiming to read for at least 20-30 minutes every day, either on Active Learn (Bug Club) or with a book.
If you have any questions or would like to send your lovely work for us to see, email us at: year4@bgfjs.org (don't forget to include your name on the email so we know who it's from!)

See you tomorrow for another day of learning!
(The answer to lunch time’s riddle is…Your name)
