Good Morning, Fun-loving Fives!<\/p>\n

I hope that you have enjoyed breakfast and are no ready to go!<\/p>\n

Let’s begin with the morning prayer:<\/p>\n

God our Father<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

As we prepare to begin our work<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

We ask you to help us to use properly the many gifts you have given us<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

So that we may fully benefit from out day together. Amen.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Health and Wellbeing<\/strong><\/p>\n

I hope you enjoyed your Slushies yesterday!! We just managed to get them made in the warm weather as today is to be a bit cooler.<\/p>\n

YOGA \ud83e\uddd8\u200d\u2640\ufe0f \ud83e\uddd8\u200d\u2642\ufe0f<\/p>\n

We are going to follow a little Yoga session that Mrs McFall (Daniel and Luke’s mum) has kindly allowed us to share on the Blog.<\/p>\n

Below is a great Yoga workout that you can do along with an adult or your siblings. \u00a0You can also have your favourite ted join in too.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

Yoga is a great skill helping you learn the importance of how you breath which in turn helps us relax and sleep well.\u00a0 (Parents: Mrs McFall recommends that you allow your child to go with the flow and, if you are able to accompany them doing the video, ask them similar questions). \u00a0Remember with any exercise we should remember to drink plenty to keep us hydrated, looking after our bodies!!<\/p>\n

Once again a great big thank you to Mrs McFall and Luke. \ud83d\udc4f\ud83d\udc4f<\/p>\n

You’ve done very well on Scholastic and on First News. Keep in up!<\/p>\n

If you haven’t logged on yet, please do so and I can add you to all those who are trying so hard!<\/p>\n

Literacy Tasks<\/strong><\/p>\n

First News:<\/strong> please select from assigned Comprehension, Crossword and Word Definition tasks.<\/p>\n

Scholastic: <\/strong>please continue with your selected book. If you have finished, please complete the quiz and choose another book. You should aim to read for twenty-thirty minutes each day.<\/p>\n

Literacy: Recap of Yesterday’s Task<\/strong><\/p>\n

Step 1<\/strong><\/p>\n

Decide on six characters. <\/strong>In the game you have Professor Plum, Miss Scarlett, Colonel Mustard etc. You can give your character a title e.g. Lord Lime, Captain Chloe -it’s up to you!<\/p>\n

Step 2<\/strong><\/p>\n

Give each of your characters a colour and \u00a0a few characteristics: for example, Lord Lime might be green in colour, he might have a walking stick and he might be sneaky, dishonest and cunning.<\/p>\n

Step 3<\/strong><\/p>\n

Think of a setting. In the original edition of Cluedo each room belonged to a mansion with nine rooms.<\/p>\n

You can choose any setting – but it must have nine rooms also. It could be a castle, a spaceship etc. List the nine rooms.<\/p>\n

Step 4<\/strong><\/p>\n

Decide on six <\/strong> accessories the characters might have e.g. a walking stick, a metal briefcase etc.<\/p>\n

Task<\/strong><\/p>\n

Draw each of your characters just like Top Trump cards. The top of each card should show the name of the character. Their clothes should clearly show which colour you have selected for them and each should feature the chosen accessory.<\/p>\n

On the bottom of each card, write a brief<\/strong> description of the character based on the characteristics. You don’t need to add<\/strong> any categories or gradings (e.g. Magic 70 above).<\/p>\n

Keep your cards somewhere safe.<\/p>\n

Wednesday’s Tasks<\/strong><\/p>\n

For today’s task, you must create two sets <\/strong>of cards of an identical size<\/strong> to those you made yesterday.<\/p>\n

Set 1: <\/strong> these cards will show each of the nine<\/strong> rooms you decided upon yesterday. You will create a picture and a brief <\/strong>description of the room.<\/p>\n

Set 2: <\/strong>each card will show one<\/strong> of the accessories you decided upon yesterday. The card should have a picture of the accessory and its name.<\/p>\n

Keep all of your cards somewhere safe.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Task 2<\/strong><\/p>\n

Research the game, CLUEDO – if you haven’t already played it before. <\/strong>Make sure that you know the rules and<\/strong> that you know what you need to play the game apart from the cards above. Have a look at the board itself. How many squares doe it have?<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Numeracy<\/strong><\/p>\n

Mental Challenge: Multiplication<\/strong><\/p>\n

https:\/\/www.topmarks.co.uk\/maths-games\/daily10<\/p>\n

Select: Level 3 or Level 4 or Level 5<\/p>\n

Think carefully about which tables you know<\/strong> and which require more practice. If you know a table really well, don’t waste time on it…move to one you’re not sure about.<\/p>\n

Select two to focus on and then choose one<\/strong> from the mixed section.<\/p>\n

Weight<\/strong><\/p>\n

Over the last few days we have been looking at units of measurement used in weighing: grams and kilograms.<\/p>\n

There is a reminder for you below.<\/p>\n

Kilogram and Gram<\/strong><\/p>\n

A gram<\/strong> is a small unit which is used to weigh objects. It indicates how heavy<\/strong> the object is.<\/p>\n

A kilogram <\/strong>is made up of 1000 grams.<\/strong><\/p>\n

R.E.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Over the course of the last few days we have been learning about the importance of Pentecost. It has shown us how important the feast is in the church’s year.<\/p>\n

There are a few activities below which you can complete to reinforce what you have learned about The Feast of Pentecost and the Holy Spirit.\u00a0 You can choose to do one activity or why not complete it together with your siblings.<\/p>\n

Pentecost – story<\/a><\/p>\n

Pentecost – word search<\/a><\/p>\n

When you have finished your activities, take a few minutes to pray together with your family.\u00a0 I have attached a lovely hymn that you could sing together to finish off your Pentecost work for today.<\/p>\n
