Home Learning Maths, English, Spellings, Topic Tuesday 26th January Leopard Class- Year 2/3 Hello Leopards, In this learning guide, there is a maths, English, spelling and topic lesson for you to complete. They are approximately 30-40 minutes long each. Maths

Turns and angles

Warm- up: Problem solving. Find the value of each shape. Use the sum and the end of each line to help you.

= Today, you are going to look at reasoning and problem solving questions that ask you to think about turns, clockwise and anticlockwise.

A right angle is made when two A quarter turn looks like this: lines meet like this:

The size of a When something right angle is makes a quarter 90°. turn, it turns 90°. The child is facing the circle. If they make a quarter turn clockwise, which shape will they be facing? The child is facing the rectangle. If they make a three-quarter turn anticlockwise, which shape will they be facing? The child makes a quarter turn clockwise to face the circle. Is there another way he could have turned to end up in the same position? Activity: Have a go at answering the questions on the following slides.

1. Start at east. Turn three quarters clockwise. Which direction are you now facing?

2. What turn does the spinner need to make to get from the dragonfly to the spider?

1 3. If the hour hand is turned a 4 turn, what time will it be?

Problem Solving

4. After a three quarter turn anti-clockwise, you are now facing the zebra. Which animal were you facing when you started?

Reasoning

5. A compass needle has moved from south to north.

It has moved a half turn clockwise.

Jon says,

It has moved a half turn anti- clockwise.

Fiona says,

Who is correct? Explain how you know.

1. Start at east. Turn three quarters clockwise. Which direction are you now facing?

2. What turn does the spinner need to make to get from the dragonfly to the spider?

A quarter turn anti-clockwise or a three-quarter turn clockwise.

4. After a three quarter turn anti-clockwise, you are now facing the zebra. Which animal were you facing when you started?

Leopard

Reasoning

5. A compass needle has moved from south to north.

It has moved a half turn clockwise.

Jon says,

It has moved a half turn anti- clockwise.

Fiona says,

Who is correct? Explain how you know. Both Jon and Fiona could be correct because a half turn in either direction from the same starting point will end up at North.

English

Coordinating and subordinating conjunctions.

This lesson will be taught on Teams at 11am.

Remind yourself what a conjunction is and what they are used for. The Coordinating Conjunction

A coordinating conjunction is used to link two independent clauses (two clauses that would make sense if they were on their own.)

Here is an example:

I love rollercoasters.

I love rollercoasters and I adore log flumes.

I adore log flumes. The Coordinating Conjunction

Here are some coordinating conjunctions that you might have seen before. and but or

Which conjunction would you use to list ideas?

Which conjunction would you use to give an alternative idea?

Which conjunction would you use to give a contrasting idea? The Coordinating Conjunction

Here are some coordinating conjunctions that you might have seen before.

and is used to use to list ideas.

but is used to give an alternative idea.

or is used to give a contrasting idea. The Subordinating Conjunction

A subordinating conjunction is used to introduce a subordinate clause.

There are lots of different subordinate conjunctions, each one will give your sentence a different meaning.

Can you use one of these subordinating conjunctions in a sentence? Which part of your sentence is the subordinate clause?

because if since

I chose a burger, because I like fast food.

If you’re tired, go to bed.

Since I’ve been on holiday, I’ve felt more relaxed. Activity 1: Choose challenge 1 or 2 to complete. Identify the coordinate and subordinate conjunctions. Challenge 1: Challenge 2: Challenge 1 answers:

Apostrophes it’s for Contractions that’s can’t

hasn’t don’t I’m I’ll Contractions Contractions show the way that we actually speak.

We tend to speak quite quickly, with our words shortened. Sometimes we miss out sounds completely.

but we are more likely to say: We might write:

I think that is a good poem because it is not too sentimental. I think that’s a good poem because it isn’t too soppy! a How are the contractions shown? Apostrophes are used to show contractions Contractions are formed when letters are missed out.

Warm-up: Think of different words or phrases to describe this photograph. Did you think of any others? Write a short sentence using some of the words you thought of to describe the photograph.

Use the sentence starter to help you.

This place is one of the coldest places on Earth. It is ……………………………………………………………………………………….… ………………..……………………………………………………………………..… …………………………………………………………………………………………. Now look at a globe. Use the compass points to decide the position of the points (or Poles) at the top and bottom of the Earth.

South Pole Finish the sentence.

The Arctic is located at the………………….. Pole.

Draw the compass points. Now look at the globe again.

Find the lines. What do you notice about the lines? The lines of Latitude run around the Earth in separate circles.

The lines of run from top to bottom or North Pole to . MAP SHOWING TYPICAL GLOBAL TEMPERATURES

Note: shading and lines are approximate What is the Arctic? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H3QDqqAQTbo There are 5 major circles of latitude around the Earth.

The Arctic Circle is the most northerly circle .

The position of the Arctic Circle is not fixed because the Earth tilts but it is usually located at 66 North of the . All of the land within the Arctic Circle is classed as being part of the Arctic.

Use the map on the previous slide to label each country in the Arctic Circle.
