Good Morning Everyone.
How are you today on this bright and glorious morning? It was really hot yesterday. I think today has to be slightly cooler but still very hot. Don’t forget to drink plenty of water and slip, slap, slop with the suntan lotion if you go outside.
If you are running out of space in your jotters or need pencils etc the school will be open next Tuesday to collect these items between 3.45pm and 4.45pm. We would ask that, where possible, only one adult comes to collect items and that you stay at home.
Here are today’s tasks:
Maths
Building on from yesterday’s work have a go at this:
Starter
Activities:
Look at this diagram to help you with today’s activities.
Plenary:
Use a ruler or tape measure to find out how wide your hand span is. Then use your hand span measurement as a guide to estimate the length of different objects. Record the item, your estimate in hand spans and the estimate in cm. For example, radiator: about 6 hand spans; my hand span is 12 cm, so the radiator is about 70 cm. Find at least 5 objects to measure. Record your estimates and then actual measurements in your jotter.
Literacy:
Starter:
Verbally or written, write a short summary of what you learned in Chapters 1 & 2.
Activity: I can interpret the author’s clues and use evidence in my answers.
Read Chapters 3 and 4.

Use evidence and your thoughts on the matter, do you think it was the right thing to do?
Think about the following quote:
“Weeks passed, and King Fred forgot all about the Dovetails, and was happy again.”
