Maple Class home learning for Friday 24th April 2020

Another successful week of home learning nearly completed! Well done everyone!

Don’t forget to share something you’re really proud of on our sharing assembly post – I can’t wait to see them! 

And make sure you listen to the bed time stories posted daily – you might recognise some familiar faces!!! 

Spellings – visit the BBC Bitesize website and look at the film clips and activities about homophones. These can be found in the primary, KS1, English, spelling section. 

English – make your own dictionary at the back of your home learning book and begin to keep a record of new words you learn when reading. Write down the word and a brief definition.

Maths – visit the BBC Bitesize website and explore some of the time film clips and activities. These can be found in the primary, KS1,maths section.

Theme – today is our last day thinking about the climate and geography of Japan, so pick an activity you haven’t looked at yet. 

  • where in the world is Japan? Find out which continent it is in. 
  • What is the capital of Japan?
  • What does Japan look like? Can you draw the shape of the country and label the capital city? 
  • Which oceans are near Japan? Can you label them on your map? 
  • What does the flag of Japan look like? Can you make your own Japanese flag? You could use pencils, paint, collage materials, chalks. 
  • What would you like to learn/find out about Japan? Write some questions to explore and answer over this half term.
  • What is the weather like in Japan today? Can you research on the internet to find out? Is it warmer or cooler than England? How would you describe the weather in Japan? How does it compare to the weather at home? What is the temperature in Japan? Is the temperature in England higher or lower? 
  • What is the population of Japan? How many people live there? (How many people live in England?)
  • What is the name of the mountain range in Japan?
  • Can you name some Japanese rivers? 

The natgeokids.com website is a useful place to look for information! 

Thank you, Mrs Keeler.
