Hi all, Caspian and Tanith are back!
We are doing a joint blog today as we have done most of our work together as a team. First we had our French lesson. Mum gave us both ten words related to Halloween and asked us to find the word in French. We found some words in French were very similar to the English spellings but others were really different. For example, zombie = zombi, ghoul=goule, pumpkin=citrouille, broomstick=balai. We did our research by using our English to French dictionary and also watching some programmes online. Tanith was really pleased because she already knew black cat is chat noir as she really loves watching Miraculous Ladybug where Chat Noir is one of the main characters!
We then worked on our maths separately. I worked on area and capacity, Tanith looked at subtraction machines and her times tables.
We finished the day by creating a skeleton from raw pasta!
Meet Bob! Bob the Almighty is the skeleton of an alien warrior race. He comes from the planet Paistametrix. He has one pair of arms where the hands each have three digits – useful when eating chicken wings. He also has one pair of pincers – in life his pincers contained a toxin to spear his prey. He stands on a pile of bones – the remains of his victims from a few weeks ago! He has six joints in each leg – useful when dancing at the warrior Friday night discos on the neighbouring planets.
We are really enjoying our Halloween themed lessons.
See ya!
Bob is brilliant – BUT he might make me think twice about approaching the pasta bag until after Hallowe’en!!
