DAY 6

Hello everyone

I hope you enjoyed your weekends.

Happy birthday to Zac – we all send you our best wishes for a great day.

Happy Birthday to Keith too: we hope you have a great day. Don’t eat too much cake!

Percy has sent pictures of Daffodil and Biff: he says that they are in good health and that they have eaten nearly all the grass in the garden. Thank you for looking after them Percy.

THE GREAT STORM OF DUNWICH 1286

Today’s task is to write the introduction to the Great Storm recount. Use the powerpoint first to think about the language features that will bring your story to life. Remember, you are starting at the most dramatic point to really engage your reader.

Aim to write a paragraph of – at least – half a page so that you can set the scene and describe the danger your character is in.

MATHS – RATIOS

In maths this week, we will be doing some work on ratio and I have prepared a sheet for you to work through. If you can’t print the page out, you can easily work in your books by drawing the sets of objects with colouring pencils.

Today, you will be writing ‘For every ___ there are ____’ sentences. Eg: “For every 2 girls in Yangtze Class, there is 1 boy.”

SCIENCE

On Friday, I asked you to explore the colour of light. If your experiment didn’t work, here is a link with a way of trying it again. You need a glass of water, a piece of white paper and the light from a mobile phone. https://www.tate.org.uk/kids/make/performance/make-rainbow

FRENCH

In French there are two things to look at. The first is a quick revision game – can you remember the names of the rooms in a house. Match the right name to the right room.

The second thing will need a little research on the internet, or use a French-English dictionary if you have one. Try to match the words for things you would find on the outside of a house to the picture.

AND FINALLY, ANOTHER TERRIBLE JOKE

Why is Cinderella so bad at football?

Because she always runs away from the ball.
