English

Day 1

Can I make predictions?

Imagine when Stone Age boy meets Om the girl for the first time. What might they say to each other (I know they didn't speak English then but we will pretend!)

Fill out the speech bubbles to write their conversations.

Challenge: Can you rewrite the speech bubbles using inverted commas " "   and speech verbs? 

Day 2

We are reading Stone Age boy in class at the moment. Read the text from the first part of the text on the document saved below. Answer the questions writing in full sentences. There is a separate set of questions for Year 3 and Year 4.

Day 3

In school, we are learning how to use the ACE dictionary to look up spellings. You probably don't have an ACE dictionary at home, so I have copied the page where you look up words. Use this to find the correct page number for the misspelt words on the worksheet below. Then you can use a normal dictionary (or an online one) to look up the correct spellings.

Handwriting

Practise your joined handwriting. We are working on the letters b and p.

Day 4

Read the next 2 pages of Stone Age boy from the document saved below.

Activity 1  Spelling task

Find all the words in the text which end in the suffix -ed or -ing. Write them all down. 

Next watch the bbc video clip at the website link about suffixes.

Now think about the root word of each one. 

For example  striking  root word is strike       chipped the root word is chip

Can you remember the rules for adding the suffix -ed and -ing to a root word?

Complete the activities on the website page

Day 5

Reread the text from Stone Age boy today. What can you find out about life in the Stone Age from these pages in the book?

Write some sentences about the everyday tasks carried out by Stone Age people using the information you have learnt from this book. Some of this is written in the present tense. Change the sentences to the past tense, taking care to spell words ending in -ed correctly.

Example In the text Skinning a deer

You write: They skinned a deer (Past tense verb)

When you have finished, check your work carefully for a capital letter at the start of every sentence and an full stop at the end. Next check you have spelt all the words with -ed suffixes correctly.

Spelling

If you have your list of spelling words, ask an adult to read them out to you for your test.

Here are the spelling sentences for next week:

Spelling sentences 24.9.21 Test 1.10.21

Fish was dried and the meat was smoked and grilled over a fire.

In the Stone Age, flints were chipped, trimmed and sharpened to make tools.

To make clothes, they skinned the animal and scraped, dried and sewed the skins.

Topic - History

Lesson 1

Earlier this term, we watched an episode of the Flintstones cartoon and thought about how realistic it was! We wrote questions about what life was actually like in the Stone Age.

Use what you found out on our visit to Butser Hill and extra research on the internet to answer your questions.

Lesson 2

Think about what we learned on our visit to Butser Hill Farm. 

Now imagine you are Stone Age boy again. This time you don't meet Om but end up in the Stone Age alone.

What do you do when you arrive? How will you eat? Where will you build a shelter? What could you use to make this? What tools would you make? 

Set up an imaginary Stone Age settlement in your garden.

Would you prefer to live in the Stone Age or today? GIve reasons for your choice.

Topic - Science

This week, we are looking at different types of rocks and finding out about how they are formed.

Watch the bbc video and do the activities on the website below.

Next visit the Geological society webpage. Read about igneous, metamorphic and sedimentary rocks. In school we will be looking at different types of rocks and trying to identify these. At home, do your best to fill in in the worksheet using information from this website. The rocks we looked at were:

Chalk
