Yesterday’s Daily Challenge
Daily Challenge
Look at this picture carefully, how many squares can you find?
Maths
Today’s work is on page 19 of your new home learning book. You will be subtracting 1s, 10s and 100s mentally. That means you try and work out the answer in your head before writing it down.
You can still work in the separate columns using place value but try to think of the answers.
It sometime helps to visualise a number line and then count backwards.
English
Today for English, you will be choosing which comparing word fits in a sentence.
You will be using words ending in -er
Example: funnier, louder, bigger
But be carefully some words like gooder are not real words and need to be changed into a different word.
Say the sentences out loud to check that they make sense. Please complete page 21 in your new home learning book.
Spelling Test
Log onto Purple Mash and find the 2do for this week’s spelling test.
Get Moving
Make sure you take time each day to get some exercise. You could play football or bounce on a trampoline. You could follow Joe Wicks' routines or do some Cosmic Yoga using the links below:

Reading
It is important that you are reading for at least 15 minutes each day. You could read comic books, magazines or books. There are lots of books on Bug Club for you to use too. You will get dojos for showing me that you are reading. You could send me a photo of your reading record filled in.
Times tables
Don't forget to practice your times tables on TT Rockstars. Challenge each other and me! It's a great way to improve your maths skills.
Thursday 2nd July
Good morning everyone,
I hope you are all happy and healthy. I know that you are all working hard so well done. All your work is below, please complete it all.
It was lovely to see you in the Zoom meeting so thank you for joining me.
Let’s try to use Bug Club more to practice our reading skills – there are some really great books on there.
I am so excited to be your teacher in Year 4! Let's keep up the hard work.
Have a wonderful day

Daily Challenge
Can you spot 10 differences in the pictures below?
Maths
Today you will be completing page 18 in your new home learning book. It is all about mental addition, which means working it out in your head. Instead of writing down the addition for each column (ones, tens, hundreds) you work out each column in your head first.
For some questions you may need to use the inverse of the addition:
40 + 60 = 100
100 - 40 = 60
Read each question carefully to work out what you need to do.
English
Today I would like you to complete page 20 in your new learning book focusing on using the correct verbs.
Try reading the sentence out loud to see if it sounds right.
Pat and Mark speaks beautifully. Incorrect
Pat and Mark speak beautifully. Correct
You need to read each word carefully.
Question 2 asks you to decide whether the sentences are written in the active or passive voice. Use these slides to help you.
Extra task
I would like you to send me a picture of you being helpful at home. You could help by making lunch, by tidying your room or even reading with a younger brother and sister.
When we make others happy it can make us happy too.
Send me your pictures on ClassDojo and I will include them in our Friday Facebook highlights.

Yesterday’s daily challenge
Did you find the mouse?
Daily Challenge
How many cubes were used to build this shape? Are there cubes you can’t see?
Maths
Today we are going to learn about finding the perimeter of 2D shapes. Please complete pages 40 and 41 in your new home learning book. You might need to use the slides below to remind you how to find the perimeter of a 2D shape.
English
Today we are going to look at apostrophes again but this time we will be using them for contractions. Please complete pages 13 and 14 in your new home learning book.
Contracted words, also known as contractions, are short words made by putting two words together. Letters are taken out in the contraction and replaced by an apostrophe. The apostrophe shows where the missing letters should be.
This slide shows examples of common contractions that we use regularly. Be careful where you place the apostrophe – it can be tricky!
Science
Today you are going to create an optical illusion.
An optical illusion is a visual object that uses colour, light or patterns to purposefully deceive or trick the brain. It works because the brain processes information that it thinks is reality, when in fact the eye can see that it isn't.
To create your own follow the steps on the slide below.
Spelling
Practice your spellings today from Monday’s list.
