Bean Planting
Our new topic is Let’s Be Farmers.
Today, as part of our science learning we planted Broad Beans. We planted our Broad Bean seeds in cups and watered them. We will be looking after our beans. What will happen next…
Home learning Year 1 25.04.19
This week in Maths we have been finding ways to make 20, by adding two numbers.
These are called number bonds.
How many different number bonds can you find for 20?
Here’s one to get you started:
10 + 10 = 20

Choose a times table and write the ‘family’ for each fact e.g 6 x 2 = 12
So: 2 x 6 = 12, 12 ÷ 2 = 6 and 12 ÷ 6 =2
We are Cryptographers
5C began a new unit of work for Computing today in which we will be learning to program secret message encryption software in Scratch.
Linking with our topic ‘The Roman Invasion’, we began by looking at how ancient civilisations might have sent messages quickly and efficiently over long distances, and using semaphore, had a go at sending and receiving our own messages.
Year 2 Home Learning 25.04.19
This week we have been using money to problem solve. Look at the coins below, can you name them all?
Imagine you are going to the bakery. You have 1 silver coin. What items could you buy? What if you chose a different silver coin, what could you buy then?
Choose 2 items or 3 items from the bakery. How much would they cost altogether?
*Challenge* – Can you find change? Choose a silver coin and then choose an item to buy. Use an empty numberline to subtract the price from the amount of the coin.
E.g: Use the numberline to say the answer below.
Home Learning – 25.4.19 – Family Budget
You have £50 to buy your family food for a week. What will you buy?
You will need to do some research to find out prices – you can visit your local shop, or look online (e.g. www.tesco.com or www.sainsburys.co.uk). Remember to think healthily and take advantage of special offers.
Fairy Tale Detectives
Today we found 5 clues in our playground. We investigated each clue to see who might have dropped them. There were golden eggs and feathers, gold coins, magic beans, a packet of yeast with a bread recipe using ground bones, and an alarmingly large pair of pants! Can you guess who dropped the clues?
