Every super hero needs a cape, but what material in the best? Find a selection of 3 materials. You could use cotton sheet, tin foil, paper, cardboard, a towel or bubble wrap…anything you have available at home. Write down the name of the three materials. Use your phonics. First, look at the materials and suggest which material you think will work the best. Explain why you think that. Next test the materials. How will you test the materials? What does a cape need to do? You could attach it to your collar and run. Does it flap when you run? Is it strong? Is it comfortable. Next mark your materials 1-3. 1 being the best and 3 being the worst. Which material is the best? Why? Is it the material that you thought would be the best?

Now you need to write a sentence and draw a picture to explain how you are going to save her. Think about the powers you might use? Think about where you will find Mrs Taylor. Will Mr Stink try to fight you? You can ask a grown up to scribe what you say once you have written at least two sentences of your own.

Put the pages 1, 2, and 3 into order. You have written your own story. Isn’t that clever. Read your story back. Is it exciting? You could put the pages together like a book and add your own front cover.

Today, you will either need some masking tape, big paper or an area outside that you can scribe on. The tape or paper needs to secured vertically onto a wall. Next, choose 5 of your soft toys. Now, just as you would if you were getting your height measured, put the toys one by one against the wall to mark their height. Which one is the tallest? Shortest? Can you describe a toy that is shorter than another toy? Taller than another toy? Use the words tall, taller, tallest, short, shorter and shortest to describe the height of your toys. What could you use to measure the height of each sot toy? You could stack blocks and then count the blocks. Don’t forget to record how many blocks tall each soft toy is.

Research – A long time ago in Ancient Greece, the Greeks believed in a Gods and Goddesses. The head God was called Zeus. He was the God of the sky and Thunder. The good Gods lived on top of a very high mountain in Greece. Thy called it Mount Olympus. The Greeks shared lots of stories about Heroes that were instructed by Zeus to save the world. One of the Greeks favourite heroes was a man called Herakles. He is also known as Hercules like it the Disney film. He was very strong and killed lots of Monsters. Unfortunately, the world was not just full of Heroes and Gods, there was also the villain Hades. He was the God of the Underground which means he lived below in the middle of the world where it is hot and dark and gloomy. I would like you to research Herakles. Find out about one of his hero stories. You could draw a picture to describe what happened. You could even write a sentence to describe what happened.

Hades – God of the Underground

Zeus – God of the sky and Lightening

Click on the link below. Select phase 4 and then click on all of phase 4. For each word, start by asking your child you point out any digraphs or trigrpahs. This will help them break up the word correctly. Then ask your child to sound out the word and then blend to read. Remind your child to break longer words up into readable chunks and then blend the chunks together. Your child then needs to decide if the word is a real or fake word and select the correct dragon. Can they say a sentence that includes the real word? This checks that they know the meaning of the word. If they do not know the meaning, then explain and discuss the meaning.

Afternoon Play and Learn –  

Snuggle down and watch or read your favourite superhero film or book. I love watching the ‘Incredibles’ film and I love to read ‘Superato’. Netflix has a wide range of superhero programmes at the moment, if you have access. Watch how the superhero moves around in different ways. Maybe you could copy the moves. What superpowers does the Hero have? Who is the Villain? How do the superheroes defeat the Villain?

Thinking back to when you started to grow your plants, how tall are they now? Are they all the same height? Can you spot the tallest plant? Can you spot the shortest plant? Isn’t it funny that you planted them at the same time but they are all different heights? They are all different and special just like all the children in our class. You are all different heights too.

When you were younger, were you shorter than you are now? Have you measured your height since you were little? How tall do you think you will grow?

Have a go at the computer game below. It will help you revise length and help you practise recognising height.
