Moving on up!
Thursday 15th July 2020
Hello everyone! Welcome to the final day of learning online.
For English today, we would like you to complete your information leaflets. A successful class is one that works together. To work together successfully we need to think of the values that we must share as a class. This is what we would like your final section to be about.
You will continue to work on using arrays for your maths session today. You will be using arrays for the 5 times tables. As with yesterday's session, make sure you read the calculations carefully before you solve them. Before you begin, have your worksheet (from below) and pencil ready. Remember you can either print the worksheet or copy it by hand. Follow the link below to access the video for this session.
Log on to Purple Mash to read chapter four of this week's story and to complete the comprehension task.
For your final activity, we would like you to complete the 'Transition Day' booklet. There is a section within the booklet that is for you to complete when you know who your teacher will be in September so keep it in a safe place.
Today is the last day of term for most of you! A massive 'well done' to all of you for staying strong and carrying on during the past months. Whatever you do, we hope you have a wonderful holiday and look forward to seeing you again in school in September.
We wish you every success for next year. 
Fun in the sun

Hi everybody!
For English today, you will be learning about how to stay safe at the beach. You will then write key information on to your leaflet. Once you have done that draw a picture to go with this section.
For maths, we would like you to work on your problem solving skills. Either print or copy by hand the worksheet from below which you will need for this session. The link for the session is here:
Log on to Purple Mash for chapter four of this week's book and the comprehension activity that goes with it.
Next, we would like you to read the story about growing cress 'Sam's Seeds'. Once you have done that, either draw or print the pictures from the slide and sequence them correctly. Write about what happens in each stage of the growing process. If you want and you can get some cress seeds, have a go at growing your own.
We would like you to take part in a national competition for designing a badge to say thank you to all of those unsung heroes who have helped the country throughout the past months. Follow the slides where you will find details of things to remember when designing your badge. Once you have designed your badge, take a clear picture of it and upload it as a file to our Purple Mash blog.
Today's story from around the world is from Brazil. We hope you enjoy listening to it. To access it, follow the link within the PowerPoint.
Have a super day everybody!

You should have designed and made a friend for Beegu and a rocket by now. If you haven't finished yet, work on completing these first. Once you have done this, you can use your models to role play.
Have fun playing with your models and remember you can post pictures on our class blog.

Happy Thursday, everybody!
In your English session, you will work on using commas in a list so that you can get yourself ready to write a setting description tomorrow. After practising spellings, you will be shown how to use commas in a list before having a go at this on your own.
You will be using all of the work that you have done so far in maths in today's session about unit fractions. A unit fraction is when the numerator is 1. Click on the link below and scroll down to 'Week 2 - Lesson 3 - Unit fractions'.

To complete your reading comprehension activity, log into Purple Mash.
By now, for art, you should have at least four puppets and the storyboard for your scene ready. Today, we would like you to work on recording your scene using your puppets. Remember you can do this using the video function on a phone, tablet etc. or on an app such as Puppet Pals.
The weather forecast for tomorrow shows that it will be another very hot day. Enjoy the sun but remember to have fun safely. Some of the ways you can keep safe in the sun are by drinking plenty of water throughout the day, wearing a sunhat and sunglasses and using sun spray.
Have fun!

Hi everyone! We hope you are doing well and staying safe.
In your English session, you will look closely at the key features of a character description. Click on the link to access the session and remember to pause the video when you need to. It is a good idea to copy the description of Lalchand before you identify the features.
For maths, you will be continuing your work on fractions. Today you will be finding half of different amounts. You will need the worksheet below which can be printed or copied by hand.
You wouldn't believe it but for your science session today, you will need a bag of sweets! Yes, sweets! Skittles to be precise. Unfortunately they are not for you to eat but to use in an experiment. You will also need some warm water so it is important that you complete the task with an adult who can warm and pour the water safely for you.
The focus of today's 'HUK Back to School' session is worries. Worries can be experienced when we go through a change. In today's session, you will be reflecting on any worries that you may have and what you can do about them. There is a task for you to do with a template (on the final slide) which you can copy or print.
On Purple Mash you will find the daily reading and comprehension task so don't forget to logon and complete that also.
It would be great to see pictures of the work you have done on our class blog on Purple Mash.
Have fun learning

Hello everyone!
A super well done to those of you who are completing the tasks. It is great to see pictures of your work on our class blog and lovely to see that you are sending messages to each other.
For English today, you will be moving on to identifying the features of instructions. Have your pencil and paper ready and click on the link below to access it.
For maths, you will begin by recapping the learning from the past 2 days and completing each pair of numbers using either < or >. Then you will move on to learning about the symbol for 'equals' and how we can use it to combine 2 number sentences that give us the same value.
We have all been experiencing change since the start of lockdown. It can be a tricky thing to experience. When you download the PowerPoint 'We see things differently', it will allow you reflect on change and how some things stay the same whilst others change. You can draw a pair of glasses. In one lens, you can draw things that are the same and in the other, things that are different. Remember, it is always a good idea to talk to an adult about the changes you are experiencing or have experienced.
For your reading activity, go to Purple Mash to complete it.
Happy Thursday everyone, have a super day learning!
