Ruby Class
Weekly Activity Webs
From the 8th June, our home learning is going to slightly change again (but not too much I promise!). At school, key worker KS2 children will now be grouped together so to support that class, KS2 teachers are providing similar lesson topics and activities but which are differentiated for our year group. That way our children learning from home and learning from school are getting the same activities and the teachers in school can do the same topics for different year groups.
There is now daily work for English / Guided reading with resources. The whole of KS2 is now doing the same text ' The Explorer', so if you have a sibling in KS2 you can support each other and share that text together :-).
There is also a presentation for Maths which has daily tasks on in. You will need to choose your working level and complete the questions and challenges.
The afternoon activities are still the same and we are still using the activity web. Years 3,4 and 5 all have the same topic 'the environment' but with activities that suit us.
Again, this is all still optional and how / when you complete the tasks is up to you. You do not need to stick completely to the timetable or activities.
If you have questions about the weekly timetable or home learning, please message me on class dojo.

This week I want you to practice using the inverse operation to check that + and - calculations are right and to solve missing number problems. If you want a reminder on this, please click the youtube video link in on the web. Try the below activities.
