Monday lesson

Today is Monday 17th August 2020

Can you say that to someone in your family or can you write that whole date down?

Fitness

I found this fitness video. I really enjoyed doing it. Let's give it a go.

Math

This week we are going to work on some basic facts.

Remember you can use objects (buttons, coins etc) or your fingers to help you work them out.

Basic Facts

We are learning to instantly remember the answers to basic subtraction problems. 

Start at the first column. If that was easy move to the next column. If you would like a challenge use a timer. See how quickly you can complete each column!

Writing

On Mondays we normally do weekend writing. So let's continue with our weekend writing.

What did you get up to on our 2 beautiful sunny days?

My example;

On Saturday the boys and I went on a beautiful bike ride to Western Springs. The boys saw 2 elephants, 2 eels, ducklings and ducks. On Sunday we went on another bike ride to Point Chev. We also went to the Oakley Creek Waterfall. It was a lot of fun.

Remember to use;

a capital letter

full stop

finger spaces

listen to your sounds

2-3 ideas.

I would love to see your writing. Remember you can email it through to me at lisar@owairaka.school.nz

Reading

Remember to read every night or have someone read to you. Then fill in your reading log.

Here is a story that was my favourite story when I was little girl. I think I loved it because the little girl is called Lisa.

Can you answer the following questions about this story.

Questions;

1. What was the name of the Teddy Bear?

2. What other animals were for sale?

3. What was Corduroy looking for?

4. Where did the night watchman find Corduroy?

5. Who bought Corduroy?

Phonics

Can you be a super spy and work out these words. You need to write down the beginning letter for each word.

Don't forget the challenge;

Challenge

Your challenge is to take a photo of anything. Something in your house, your bedroom, outside.

Then email it to me with your parents help (lisar@owairaka.school.nz) with a sentence about what it is and why you took the photo.

I will pop it up on the blog so the class can see.

Take care Room 4
