KL: use noun phrases

Today you are going to design Mudpuddle Farm.

You will need to include a place for the animals to live:

Captain the horse lives in the barn

Aunty Grace and Primrose the cows live in a field

Upside and Down live in the pond

Albertine the Goose lives on an island in the middle of the pond

Diana the silly sheep lives in a field

Jigger the dog lives in the farmhouse with Farmer Rafferty

Farmer Rafferty also has a vegetable patch which includes- runner beans, lettuce, potatoes and tomatoes

When you have finished your design think of a noun phrase to describe each place. Make sure you choose two different adjectives.

Look at the examples below.

big, large barn

This is a bad choice because big and large are similar

big, red barn

This is a good choice because the adjectives are different.

KL: Solve measurement problems

Read the problems carefully. Think about what the problem is asking you do. Look for key words.

• Check if you need to add or subtract
• If you need to + draw both numbers for your working out
• If you need to – draw the greatest number for your working out
• Don’t forget to put TO on top of your working out to help with your place value

KL: Design your own garden

What would you like to have in your garden?

You could include a play area with a slide or swing or a sandpit. Some grass, a flowerbed or vegetable patch even a swimming pool!

Use the sheet at the bottom of the page to help you plan.

You must include a flowerbed with five different kinds of flowers (remember to label them). There is a word bank to help you.
