To be able to recognise four basic 3D solid shapes: spheres, cubes, cuboids and pyramids

Starter -

Let's have a look at some 3D shapes on our tables. Can you recognise any?

A 3D shape is a 3 dimensional shape which is NOT flat.

We can see all around the shape including the bottom, top and all the different sides. 

We are going to be focusing on these 4 3D shapes today - 

Sphere 

Cube 

Cuboid 

Pyramid 

Walk around the classroom, can you spot any of these 3D shapes?

 

Compose and sequence their own sentences to write short narratives.  

 Today you will start to write your invented story independently.

Your teacher will be looking for:

  • Capital letters to begin sentences
  • Full stops to end sentences
  • Capital letters for names
  • Using 'but' in sentences
  • spaces between words
  • neat handwriting
  • segmenting for spelling

Can we group objects based on the materials from which they are made?  

Last week we learned that objects are made of different materials. Some can be made of more than one material.

Last week you drew an object and labelled what material your object was out off, can you share it with the class?

Let's say the names of the materials together.

 

Today we are going to be grouping different objects based on their materials!

Around the room there are 6 different materials, each clearly labelled.
You will be given one object.

  1. Look carefully at your object.

  2. Decide what material it is made from.

  3. Move to and stand by the labelled material group that matches your object.

    The material groups are - 
  4. wood 
  5. plastic 
  6. fabric 
  7. paper 
  8. metal 
  9. glass
