Writing
Today for writing you will need
to recognise the 3 types of
sentences we have learnt
about over the past fortnight
being simple, compound and
complex sentences. You will
find the information in the
‘Types of Sentences’ page
included below.
Using your knowledge about
the three different types of
sentences, you will need to
decide which column each
sentence belongs in and then
write it.
Reading Activity
Answer the following
questions:
1. What message was the
author trying to convey?
How do you know?
2. Why do you think the
author chose the setting
of the story?
Take a 10-minute Crunch and
Sip break.
Writing
Today you are going to write
your own complex sentences.
Your task is to make sure that
your sentence has the words
on the task card included and
that you have used the correct
punctuation. Use the writing
checklist picture to help you
edit your work.
Take a 10-minute Crunch and
Sip break.
Writing
Today you are going to write
your own complex sentences
using the task cards again.
However, this time you are also
going to include adverbs and
adjectives as well to make your
sentences interesting and
descriptive.
Your task is to make sure that
your sentence has the words
on the task card included and
Take a 10-minute Crunch and
Sip break.
Writing *Check in Task*
Today you are going to write
your own complex sentence
using a picture prompt. You will
need to look at the picture of
the pirates and write down as
many nouns, adjectives, verbs,
and adverbs you can think of
about the picture. This will
help you to create your
complex sentence.
On the worksheet there are
already the subordinating
conjunctions and relative
pronouns you can use at either
the beginning of your sentence
or in between the independent
and dependent clause. Once
you have brainstormed and
written down your words in
each column (try and have at
least 3 or 4 words in each), you
can use these words to make
your complex sentence.
Make sure you pick words from
each box so you have a noun,
adjective, verb, and adverb in
your sentence.

Review Place Value Columns
When using a strategy like the
split strategy, you partition
numbers into their place value,
add the place values
separately, and then combine
the numbers to find the total
sum.
We will review place value and
partitioning so we can move on
to more difficult strategies.

Activity 2 *Check in Task*
Use dice to complete the ‘Roll
It, Make It, Expand It’
worksheet.
Students roll a dice 3 times
and record their 3 digit
number putting each number
inside the hundred, tens and
units columns on their
worksheet.
Students then represent that
number by drawing MAB
blocks.
Then write the number in
expanded notation form,
e.g. 300 + 20 + 4 = 324
Today we are going to learn
how to recognise 3D shapes
like cones, cubes, cylinders,
spheres, pyramids and prisms.
Activity 1
Explore the ‘3D Objects and
their properties’ poster.
Use the poster to help
complete the ‘Guess the 3D
Object’ worksheet.
Activity 1
Using the poster from
yesterday, try and find an
object in your home that you
can say is a common 3D object.
For example, a cereal box is
rectangular prism.
Using the object, try to spin,
flip, and turn it. Does that
change the 3D object?
Even when we move a 3D
object into a different
orientation it remains as the
same shape even though it may
look different. The qualities
and dimensions remain the
same.
Activity 2
Look around your house and
backyard for more items that
are common 3D objects. The
pantry cupboard might be a
place to start!
Complete the ‘3D Shape Hunt’
worksheet.

sticks, straws, foil, pencils,
crayons, scissors, tape etc.

How do we use medicines
safely?
Today we are going to learn
about why it is important to
use medicines safely.
People often have medicine
when they are feeling unwell or
to prevent feeling worse if
they are sick. One example of
a medicine you might see
people use is an asthma puffer.
It is very important that
people are careful with
medicines. Children should only
have medicine when it is
needed and when it is given by
a trusted adult. It is also
important that people only
take medicine that is meant
for them. There are some rules for
safety when taking medicines
that include:
-You should only take your own
medicine
-You should have the correct
amount of medicine and at the
correct times
-You should only have medicine
when told to by a doctor, a
parent or caregiver
History - Special days
Some days are very important
to people. They may be a time
to celebrate, remember or to
have fun.
Different cultures share
different special days. They
may often be quite different
to days that you find special.
For example, in China on a
child’s birthday, they lay out a
bunch of objects in front of
them and see which item they
will choose. In this culture,
they say that whatever the
child chooses is what their
future job will be.
Questions:
What job do you think you will
choose when you grow up?
What is a special day that we
celebrate here in Australia?
What do you do on this special
day?
How does it make you feel?
What are some things that
would make a special day for
you? (Family, friends, food,
toys, swimming, playing
outside)
