Remember to log onto Google Classroom for a hello message from me!

Literacy

For this literacy unit we are following the Somerset Literacy Network plan on poetry.  This unit is focussing on creating poems about certain animals.  Our animal focus is the hare.  Below is a photo which will be the main resource we will need for our poem.

Below is also the activity for you to complete today.  It is all about fact finding!  What can we find out about the hare?  It is also linked in a file below.

Reading

I would like you to spend some time every day reading your reading book or any book you are enjoying.  It is great to read to others but it is also good to do some independent reading!  Maybe you could send in some book reviews that we could share on our webpage!

REMEMBER, we now have a great website called GetEpic!  It would be wonderful to see you using that as well!

Read, Write Inc

In Read Write Inc we are continuing looking at unit 9 focussing on words with the suffix -ion, it is on page 37-40.  But today I would like you to just work on page 39 and complete the log and learn, dictation and four-in-a-row activities.  Tomorrow we shall go onto choose the right word, team teach and jumping orange word activities.  

Do remember to practice for your test on Wednesday.

REMEMBER, you can always go back over previous units and complete and work which you did not quite finish.

Science

Today we are going to continue looking at light and dark.  Last week we focussed on Sun Safety but this week our focus will be making shadows!  The PowerPoint for this session is attached below along with the activity.  

The activity below is in two parts.  Firstly you are going to discover what opaque, translucent and transparent is and then you are going to design some light blocking curtains!

Have fun!
