Here are 3 activities we are completing in school this week.
We are still exploring time!
Activity 1
Find some different containers for you to explore together
Can you show a full container
Can you show an empty container
Can you show almost full
Can you show almost empty
Taking some pictures would be great!
Activity 2
Can you find some smaller objects today for example: a mug, pan, bowl
Can you fill these objects and then using a measuring jug see how much they contain.
Look carefully at the millilitre scale and write down the objects and the ml it holds.
Activity 3
Can you find some larger objects today for example: paint bottle, milk bottle, cola bottle
Can you fill these objects and then using a measuring jug see how much they contain.
These objects will hold more liquid so you may need to add up your millilitres to convert it into litres.
Remember there are 1000 millilitres in 1 litre
Activity 4
Take three different containers. Fill each container with liquid or rice using the same unit of measure e.g. A small cup.
Now order the containers from largest to smallest capacity.

- Use a ruler to try measuring different objects in your house. Look carefully at the numbers on the ruler – these numbers show centimetres. Make sure you line up the beginning of the scale on the ruler with the edge of the object: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1B-MrjSiwUVMs2R5BoysoV3XHaON9baOoOp-blyXPnGc/edit?usp=sharing
- Try making some beanstalks using these measurements and a ruler! https://docs.google.com/document/d/1IN2hdIwBzdZioNHUBv7q5SpVnr6M56yZhnAjOnNOogI/edit?usp=sharing
- Can you measure how long you are? (lying down!) Use different non-standard units that you’ve used this week e.g. lolly sticks/sticks of 10/ pens (not pencils because they are different lengths) and centimetres. Can you record how long/tall your partner is? Record the same information for yourself!
Year 2:
- Try out some Purple Mash maths games that you may have played before.
- Can you match the names of the 3D shapes with the pictures? Then write how many edges these 3D shapes have.

3. Using the shapes you matched yesterday and then added the number of edges, can you record how many vertices each shape has today? Remember a vertex of a shape is the point at which two edges meet.
4. Watch this clip What are the properties of 3D shapes? – BBC Bitesize and then try the quiz below this!
5. Can you work out each of the properties for all of these 3D shapes?

Spanish – Monday
This week, we are learning about another Spanish festival, La Tomatina – read about the festival on this webpage, watch the video at the end and then draw a picture of what happens at La Tomatina.

We are continuing our work on the Easter Story. Use the video below to remind yourself of the story:
Then, cut out the first 10 pictures in the story and stick them into your book. If you don’t have a printer, you could draw your own pictures.

Science – Tuesday
What do plants need to grow? Watch this clip to find out more: What do plants need to grow? – KS1 Science – BBC Bitesize
Go outside to look at the plants you might have in your garden. Are they getting what they need? Or do they need more time to grow?
Can you list what plants need? Think about light, soil of some kind to anchor the roots, water, time, space to grow.
Task: Make a poster to display the items that a plant needs to grow successfully. Include labels to show each item a plant needs and how you can show it e.g. sunshine for light, watering can for water, a clock to show time.
PE – Wednesday
If you can get outside into a garden, try practising throwing and catching a ball. Remember those key skills we practised – eyes on the ball, hug the ball into your body when you catch it and don’t throw it too high!
Geography – Thursday
Last week we learnt the names of the continents on our planet. Today we are going to learn the 5 oceans!
Watch this video: Five Oceans Song – YouTube
Y1: Complete the map sheet where you have to label each of the Oceans using the words along the side to help. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1-eWsQ5sSbWH7qfsN6NXOu0vFvTCmDcfM0x3l-cwtTmk/edit?usp=sharing
Y2: Complete the map sheet where you have to label each of the Oceans. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1moMyd5BY5GEBgVfdDnkj2VHomAMBtVUFa_dxzGMTwh8/edit?usp=sharing
You could use Google Earth to help you locate each of the oceans around the world.
Art – Friday
In school we will be having a go at trying this weaving using two lolly popsticks plus some wool so if you have anything you could use to try this go ahead! Weaving With Lolly Sticks | Teaching Ideas If not, you could try some more paper weaving with other colours.
