Week 3 Online Learning

Term 2 -  Tuesday 27 April
Hi everyone, Alert Level 3 now - woo hoo:)  So that means I am back at school.  That doesn't mean you stop your online learning.  Mrs Harpur will work with you at the end of the week and I will focus on Monday - Wednesday.  So I'll still be involved in your learning and I still want you to keep in touch.  There may be longer gaps between when I email back or post your sharing but it will still happen.  Your sharing makes all this online learning worthwhile:)

Maths:
Quick Questions
1.Mele and her Nana made 28 Tongan fans on the first week of the Christmas holiday, and 26 more on the second week. How many fans did they make altogether?
2. Calvin picked 37 tomatoes from their garden. How many more tomatoes does he need to have 54 altogether?
And/or:

Problem Solving
Oscar’s Odd Jobs - Work through the questions to help Oscar save as much as he can to earn spending money for his holiday.  Take a couple of days to do this activity. (Link under Useful Websites)
And/or:

Keep working on the games and activities on Studyladder, Prodigy and under Useful Websites that focus on basic facts knowledge.  This will help you to solve any maths problem.

Read or write:
Complete the Quirky Quiz #4 created by Mrs Alexander.  Link under Useful Websites.  You will need to record these on a piece of paper or on another doc.  Feel free to send to me or check the answers with family members.
And/or:

Spelling
There are loads of spelling activities on Studyladder for all levels. Find an activity that will give you some success as well as add a bit of a challenge.
And/or:
Play a game of online boggle or use the picture below to create as many words as you can.  You can go in any direction, just as long as the letters connect.  Use the numbers on the letters to see how many points you can score.  Start with the smaller grids first.  Link under Useful Websites.

And/or:
Curl up with a book for 15 minutes.

Be Creative:
Create a face like the one below that shows different emotions.  Create one of your own to teach young children to create some crazy characters.  You slide the different mouths and eyes along slits in the face - a bit of problem solving to sort that out:)


Exercise:
Do the Les Mills Born to Move workout (Link under Useful Websites)
And/or…
Work on Silone’s Challenge (around 2km a day) –
Over 3 – 4 weeks your goal is to try to complete one of the awards:
Bronze Award - 10km/4 hours
Silver Award - 20km/8 hours
Gold Award - 30km/12 hours
You can send photos of you and your family out and about running or walking.  Once your parents have verified you have met the criteria for an award Silone will present a certificate.  At school she has a box of goodies to present for children who are getting out of their comfort zones, trying really hard, showing great enthusiasm and getting the rest of their family out and about as well.  You could record your progress in a log with the date, the distance/how long you walked or ran, and include your parent’s signature.
