Activity:
I can discuss the theme of the book.
Think about the links to Christianity and the values within the religion. Think about the characters experiences. Think about our wall display from class, we split it in to 2 sections with the White Witch and Aslan, what did they each represent? Is there a lesson to be learned from this story?
Complete the activity C.S.I.

Is it fast/ slow? Is it happy/ sad/ intense? Do you think of certain scenes? Or characters? Do you think about lessons learned related to the theme?
Does it change throughout?
Why do you think they chose this music throughout the film?
MATHS
Starter:
In the next few weeks, weβre going to revise multiplication calculations.Β To ensure youβve got your times tables facts at your fingertips, each day this week for our mental starter, weβre going to play a game which helps you to revise your times tables.Β Hereβs todayβs game:

Select-> Times Tables ->Hit the Answer -> Mixed.Β You can decide whether you want to do Tables up to 10 or 12
Activities: I can subtract a 3 digit number from a 3/4 digit number.
Remember:
To ensure your work is accurate, think about:
- Estimating and checking an answer. It can be easy to make a careless mistake in a calculation so it is very helpful to estimate the answer before completing it using rounding or known facts.
- Laying out a calculation. Remember the importance of lining up the digits correctly, particularly if there are two numbers of different sizes, e.g. a 6-digit number and a 4-digit number.
- The importance of zero. It is particularly important in a written calculation to keep the digits in the columns where they belong.
- Mental or written strategy. Look at a calculation and consider whether a mental or written strategy is most appropriate. Just because it is written as a formal calculation doesnβt mean you have to solve it that way. For example, the calculation 6034 β 5897 would be very difficult as a written calculation (as it involves exchange several times), but it is relatively easy to work out the difference by counting on.
