Writing – Continue with your journal task (separate tab). Remember to reflect on your feelings and share what is happening in the world. It is up to you how you complete this and whether you are completing it each day. I found a really nice example that someone else has completed and I thought it may give you some inspiration. They have included phases of the moon, how they felt each day and activities they have done. You could include anything else you felt was appropriate.

Imaginative Story

I will email you out a pack of planning and assessment sheets. Please use what you would normally use in class. The picture below is what I would like you to write about. Remember to use your senses to help you describe your setting. I will also send you a copy of the baseline criteria to help you assess your work. If you are unsure of what any of the criteria means please ask.

Title of your story:

The Path at the End of the Garden.

Numeracy

You are tasked with finding out about a famous mathematician. Have a read through the fact cards that I will upload (and email). Choose one of these mathematicians and do some research on them to present to the rest of the class.

• Carl Friedrich Gauss

Once you have selected your mathematician, complete some research on them and their relevance to mathematics.
You could consider:

• events of their childhood;
• their family;
• what made them become interested in mathematics;
• how did they contribute to mathematics;
• their social life or home life;
• their personality;
• how their developments in mathematics affected the world.

You could create a poster, a PowerPoint or select any other way to record your information.
