Literacy - As discussed in class, our next independent write will be about Great Houghton.
In bullet points, come up with some suggests that you would like implement to improve the facilities or programmes in your community for you.
We can then share these ideas in class.

Snowy Owls
Phonics links - Good morning Snowy Owls! I hope you are enjoying the snow!
This morning in phonics, we would have been learning to read and write the sound "er". Here are the videos you can watch to help you!

Activity 1
Activity 2
Snowy Owls Writing Task:
In class, we have been working on forming capital letters. We have been making sure that they are the correct letter shape and that they are bigger than the lower case letters in our sentence.
Today, I would like you to write a snow day diary. When you are writing your sentences, I want you to make sure that your capital letters are the correct shape AND that they are bigger than your other letters.
Remember, we need a capital letter for the start of a sentence, names, places and the personal pronoun "I".
I can't wait to see your writing on Monday!

1) Go sledging.
2) Build a snowman.
3) Snowball fight.(be careful though!)
4) Make snow angels.
5) Make a bird feeder.
6) Build an igloo
7) Look for animal footprints.
8)Catch snowflakes on your tongue

For anyone who wishes, for your literacy work you could finish your recount about our trip to Ewden Educational Centre or you could write a recount about your snow day!
For maths please practise your 3 x tables, and you should already know your 1, 2, 4, 5, 8 and 10 times tables- so you could test yourself on TTrockstars.
For reading please read your school book or your book you got from World Book Day- I would love some book reviews to add to our Book Swap Station! Include a summary of what the book is about, your favourite part, the characters in the book and whether or not you would recommend the book. You could add pictures and make this a rally colourful!
