\ud83c\udf08\ud83c\udf08GOOD MORNING PRIMARY 4\/3\ud83c\udf08\ud83c\udf08<\/span><\/p>\n

Hi boys and girls, hopefully the sun breaks through the clouds today!! \u2600\ufe0f \ud83c\udf1e I have loved watching\/seeing all of your Virtual Sports Day activities from Tuesday.\u00a0 Definitely some budding athletes for the future I think!<\/p>\n

Let’s start the day with our morning prayer \ud83d\ude4f. \u00a0We could also say a Hail Mary remembering anyone who needs a little prayer.<\/p>\n

Choose a starter activity from the link below.\u00a0 Remember to choose one you haven’t already used.<\/p>\n

Find a Word!<\/a><\/p>\n

Today we are going to continue with our homophones.\u00a0 Watch the following link to give yourself a little reminder.<\/p>\n

https:\/\/www.bbc.co.uk\/bitesize\/topics\/zqhpk2p\/articles\/zc84cwx<\/a><\/p>\n

Remember homophones are words that sound the same but have different meanings and are spelt differently.\u00a0 Last week we looked at to\/too\/two because they are very commonly mis-spelled as people use the wrong one.\u00a0 You must ensure that you use the correct word in your writing.\u00a0 We all did very well on the exercise but the hard part now is to remember to apply what you have learned and use the correct word.\u00a0 I’ll be looking very closely at this in your written work. \u00a0\ud83d\udd0e<\/p>\n

Today I would like you to think of pairs\/trios of other homophones.\u00a0 Can you list 5? 7? or maybe even 10?\u00a0 Try your hardest and I would love to see your lists.\u00a0 Some are more common than others.\u00a0 Once you have your list I would like you to take 3 of your sets of homophones and show me you understand what each of them mean by using them in a sentence.\u00a0 Remember your core targets and make your sentences as interesting as possible.\u00a0 Remember, too, it must make sense.<\/p>\n

Continue to practise your phoneme words if you need to.<\/p>\n

Today I have assigned you a reading book \ud83d\udcd6 in Scholastics.\u00a0 Please email me and I will send you the information you need to get into your book.<\/p>\n

Numeracy\ud83d\udd22<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Today we are going to concentrate on our 4 number operations.\u00a0 These are addition\/subtraction\/multiplication\/division (+ – x \u00f7).\u00a0 \u00a0If you are given a sum you always have to look at the sign and ensure we carry out the correct operation.\u00a0 If we are given a word problem we have to ensure we read it carefully and ask ourselves what we need to do.\u00a0 Will we add, subtract, multiply or divide.<\/p>\n

We are going to be working from our Teejay Textbook today, so I will give you your exercise when you email me about your reading book.<\/p>\n

When you have finished you can choose to play an online maths game of your choice for one of the four operations.<\/p>\n

Health and Well-being \ud83d\udeb4\u200d\u2640\ufe0f\ud83d\udd7a\ud83e\udd3e\ud83c\udffc\u200d\u2642\ufe0f\ud83d\udc52 \ud83e\udde2\u00a0<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

We have all been enjoying the lovely sunny weather recently and it has been great to be able to get outside and play.\u00a0 Even though it is important for everyone to enjoy the sun we have got to remember that it can burn your skin. There are three important steps to stop sunburn:<\/p>\n

\u2022 Cover up with clothing and a hat
\n\u2022 Spend time in the shade,
\n\u2022 Wear suitable sunscreen and apply it often<\/p>\n

In the attached sheet the character in it is out in the sun with no hat!!!\u00a0 I would like you to design a hat for the character and make sure it offers suitable protection against the sun.<\/p>\n

When we pray it is important to remember a few simple things.\u00a0 Prayers can be simple thoughts and words coming straight from the heart.\u00a0 Sometimes God doesn’t seem to give us what we pray for.\u00a0 Do not give up praying – keep on talking to God and listening for he knows what is best for you, even if it is not what you expected.\u00a0 It is also important to remember that we don’t just ask God for things we want.\u00a0 Remember to praise God and thank him for his goodness, to tell him about ourselves and others and say sorry if we have done wrong.<\/p>\n
