Friday 22nd May
2. Literacy Activity: As it is Friday and next week is half term let’s have a bit of fun!
It is your turn to be the teacher!
First, choose one of your favourite stories and video yourself reading it, or part of it.
Secondly, post your video on Twitter along with a photo of a question about your story that YOU have written.
Lastly, check during half term to see if I have listened to your story, read your question, and tried my hardest to answer it correctly.
Have a lovely half term holiday. I know it's still all a bit strange not coming into school but keep yourselves safe and healthy. We still miss you lots and look forward to seeing you all soon. There will be a school challenge up next week if you are feeling a bit bored one day and maybe you could ask a grown up to help you write to a friend or video call them.
Be good! :)

My list below shows all of the similarities and differences between my 4 paper dolls. Did you get them all? Did you spot any that I didn't? Free feel to let me know on Twitter.

I hope you enjoyed my story yesterday and managed to make some of your own paper dolls. I made mine and it was really fun thinking of names for them and what clothes to put on them. We will go back to our story again tomorrow but for today you have 2 other tasks to do. Have fun :)
Today we are going to be thinking about adding two parts to make a whole. From the paper dolls above, how many are there altogether / in total? Use the sentence stems and star words below to discuss the answer with an adult. The part / whole models below might help too.
One part is ______ the other part is ______ .
There are _________ altogether.
The whole is _______ .
____ plus ____ is equal to ______ .
Now, try adding the parts in a different order, starting with Mrs Short’s and then Miss Ellison’s. Use the sentence stems again (and you could draw the part / whole diagram) to explain what you are doing. What do you notice about your answer?
Does this always happen?
If you want to do more, you could add two groups of paper dolls (each group no bigger than 10) to find out.
Well done to those who took part in our last Distance Dancing video:

Today you’re being set a NEW DANCE CHALLENGE using this video:

Once you feel confident with all of the steps, please ask your parents/carers to film it. Parents/carers can then send the video to our school Facebook or Twitter pages (Links below). The aim is for the videos to be used to create a Fox Hill dance montage. For Parents/carers: By sending your videos, you are giving permission for them to be used. Make sure you have your cowboy hats and USA flags ready! Good luck and get dancing! Videos to be sent by Friday 22nd May.
