You have been working so hard on this story, now we would like you to be the author and write it.
Make it as exciting as you can! Use descriptive language.
Use all the ideas you have come up with from the last two weeks – how the characters behave and look. What happens next? Etc.
You could do this over a few days!
Today write the beginning.
Tomorrow you could write the middle and so on . . .
Maths – Pebbles again!
You can repeat some of what you did yesterday, using different numbers or the same?
Can your child make a 100 square using the pebbles? Draw a grid 10 x 10 to do this and write down the numbers. You could place your pebbles on the top.
Can you only put the pebbles that are in multiples of 2 on the grid? 2,4,6,8,10,1,2,14,16 . . .
Can you put multiples of 5’s and 10’s on the top? What do you notice about the patterns?
Hide one of the numbers with a blank pebble. Can your child work out which number it must be?
Here’s an extra activity . . . from twinkl to consolidate what you have been doing.
