Hi boys and girls!  I am very impressed with the hard work lots of you are sharing.  You are all doing so well and I know it can be hard to get your school work done at home sometimes.

Today I’d like you to complete the number challenges I have set for you on Sumdog.

For literacy – follow this link  https://www.freechildrenstories.com/the-great-hill and watch the video of the story or read it yourself if you wish.

P3 can you answer these questions:

1. Why did the slow yolk feel like the worst climber in the world?
2. How do you think the slower yolk felt when someone helped him?
3. Why do you think slow yolk didn’t stop climbing like some of the others? What adjectives do you think might descride his character?
4. Do you think he made it to the top of the great hill?  Continue the story with one more paragraph to explain what you think happened and how he felt.

P2 – Can you draw a picture of the slow yolk reaching the top of the great hill and write a sentence to finish the story and explain how he felt.

Practise your spelling words in any way you choose today too.

Finally a little fun song.  The Japanese language is very different from ours and this little song lets you hear how they use our vowel sounds a,e,i,o and u.  Have a listen and see if you can sing along!

Take care everyone.
