Rabbits – home learning for 11th June
Good morning Rabbits.
Well it’s Thursday, and you would be doing music if we were in school, Mrs Hindson has given me some work for you to be doing today.
‘Hey Little Frog’ Year 2
Learn this song from Sing Up about the lifecycle of frogs. Can you make up some actions to go with the words? Download more activities to make a mask or poster.
https://www.singup.org/home-schooling/eyfs-ks1/frogs-and-animal-lifecycles
‘The Geography Song’ Year 3
Learn this song from Sing Up about the continents and the oceans. Can you clap in time with the chorus? Can you remember all the continents and oceans? Ask an adult to test you!
https://www.singup.org/home-schooling/ks2/continents-and-oceans
Now that you are all in good voice – time to tell your parents and loved ones that you are very grateful to them for all that they do for you! (maybe you could sing it?)
On with English: BBC bitesize if you are following that this week. If you are writing your story, you can continue with that. Remember to plan out the plot – what will happen at the start, and now what will happen in the middle of the story? This is where the action takes place – use those action verbs and adverbs to make it sound exciting.
Maths: here are today’s tasks.
Year 2 lesson 4 answers Year 2 lesson 4 maths Year 3 lesson 4 answers Year 3 lesson 4 maths
Project: today, you are going to do some investigations for me. I want to know the answers to the following questions:
- What is the oldest sport on record?
- Where is the most extreme sport played?
- What is the most difficult sport?
Use these references to get your answers…
https://frontier.ac.uk/blog/2016/02/19/the-top-5-extreme-sports
https://www.espn.com/espn/page2/sportSkills
What did you find? Did you find any different extreme sports? One webiste had “volcano surfing”! That is a bit too extreme for me!
Now then – for some fun (and beware – this might annoy an adult so be SENSIBLE), I would like you to design a high-dive competition for some of your action figures or toys. You will need:
- A sink or bath – you could use an outside tap and a bucket
- A selection of waterproof action figures
- A platform that can hold the figure high above your bath or sink or bucket
- COLD Water in the bath or sink (or bucket)
- A towel (that you are allowed to use)
You have to design three types of dives or bungee jumps for your figures. They can dive backwards, forwards, spinning etc. They must hit the water and not fall out (!)
If they are bungee jumping you will need to attach elastic from the platform.
Decide on the points that you can award each attempt and see which action figure is best at diving. You should let your brothers and sisters play this with you when they have finished their work!
Have fun – stay dry!
Mrs Cooke.

Mrs Viner’s Well Being Wednesday
Well-being Wednesday
Hi Everyone!
This week I want you to think about the similarities and differences between you and your friends.
There are lots of people in the world, but we are all different. There is no one quite like you!
Have a think about the following questions:
What colour are your eyes? What colour eyes does your friend have?
What type of hair do you have? What colour is it?
What about your friend?
What is your skin like? What about your friends?
Who do you live with at home? Is it different to your friend?
Do you have any brother or sisters? What about your friends?
Do you have any pets? What are they? Does your friend have pets? Are they the same as yours?
What languages do you use? Does your friend use a different language?
What is your favourite piece of fruit? Thing to do? Favourite colour? How about your friend?
You might like to draw a picture showing the things that are different and the things that are the same between you and your friend.
Remember….we are all different, but we are all friends!
Take care,
Mrs. Viner 🌈💞😀
Rabbits – Home learning for 10th June
Good morning – is it really the 10th of June already?
Maybe this morning you should start with a big THANK YOU! to whoever is working with you doing your on-line schooling – Mum or Dad, big sister or brother or maybe you are on your own? Well take a minute to say thank you to anyone who is helping you.
So on with the work: Here is a little starter activity to get your gray cells working! Alphabetical Order – Alphabetical order
English: Again, stick with bitesize if you prefer, or continue with your work towards creating a story. You should have some ideas on character, plot and today you are ready to write out your first ideas.
Plan the first paragraph with the following things:
- Setting – where it is – what does your setting look like?
- What will be happening? What characters need to be in the first part of the story?
- Use some fronted adverbial phrases, (later that day, first thing that morning, slowly and steadily ….)
Maths: here are the lessons for today on white rose – you could also look on My Maths if you fancy a change!
Project: I know that you have had some amazing ideas for your own sports event. Today, I would like you to design your own sports uniform (strip) or clothing that is needed for your sport. You can make a logo that goes with it. This link might help if you are struggling to draw people. Design your sports kit Sports people drawing templates
Reading: There are three different levels of tasks in this reading activity – select one that you find suitable for your interests: The subject is the Paralympians. Reading Task for Year 2 and 3
I look forward to seeing your designs and ideas for new sports.
Stay happy!
Mrs Cooke
