Hi Everyone.

It was great to see some of you this week and catch up with all your news.

I hope you are all continuing to stay safe, well and happy. I cannot believe that we only have 2 weeks left to this Summer Term.  It has been a very strange time for us all. Here is this week’s work for you to have a go at to keep you busy!

Read the story about The Lion and the Mouse.  There are some words down the bottom of the page for you to use to fill in the gaps.

Then, change the title of the story to a title of your own and think of other words to fill in the gaps.

My idea was the Tiger and the Rabbit!

Maths

Have a look at these one step maths problems. Remember when we are school we always think about the information that is really important for us to be able to work out the problems. Remember to show your workings.

 

Here are some near doubles and near doubles for you to work out.

Geography

We are hearing lots of things in the news about different places England, Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales.

Read of the facts and try and answer the questions.

You can use Google to do the research if you need to but remember to ask an adult to use the internet.

 

Here are some short films for you to watch about where we live and our country.

Remember to ask a grown up to use the internet and You Tube.

This week the children that came to school we took some time to talk about some of the things that interest us. We found a great website with lots of different facts and so we could do some research.

Have a look at the website and find a topic that interests you to do your own research. Some of the topics are rivers, volcanoes, rainforests, glaciers and lakes, human body, planets, sound and light facts and many more.

Let me know what you decide to research and tell me what you found out.

Remember you can log onto Hwb and upload your work for me to see.

Some of you have been printing off the work to do and that’s fine too.

 

Have a great week everyone.
