Hi there and welcome to another day of opportunities!!
Just to let you know that we are in positions 2, 3, 5 , 6, 11, 12, 13, 14 and 19- so you’re doing really well in the Sumdog Competition. We just need to get more of you into the top 10, so please keep going. Some people are answering thousands of questions!!!🏆
It’s also 
time tonight at 8pm for all the carers. I take out a pan and wooden spoon now, to make even more noise!!
Spelling practice today involves using a phone!
Use the activity for telephone words to practise your spelling.
Literacy
I have linked your grammar lesson to your spellings for this week. We are learning about comparing nouns using comparative and superlative adjectives and this lesson will develop your skill in thinking about adjectives that don’t follow the rules🤔. However, this link is really useful as it has some good examples and it tells you to think about the number of syllables that a word has e.g. powerful has 3 syllables pow – er – ful.

In your jotter, write the date and I can use comparative and superlative adjectives correctly.
With this section, you apply the learning from above and what you have already learnt from your spelling words this week. The answers for some words are in the MAKING SURE grid, too!
For the punctuation section, read for meaning! You may have to create new sentences or use commas for pauses. Remember the rules for capital letters and each sentence should have an end mark of some sort!!
Please traffic light your work and, as usual, write a comment about your understanding of the skills you are practising.
Number
As today’s starter, do your bit to help us win the inter-class competition! Play Sumdog for at least 20 Â minutes and I’ll check on the scores later today.
We will continue to multiply and divide by 10 and 100. Use the information from last Thursday, to remind you of the strategies for multiplying/dividing by 10/100. Remember the importance of the place values. Please date and I can multiply/divide by 10/100
When you traffic light and comment think about whether using the strategy has become easier and you are more confident.
This link let’s you practise your times tables in a different way.

I thought you might like to try a piece of artwork, in the style of Romero Britto. This is my attempt and it’s especially for you –  if you look carefully in the top  right hand corner, then you will see all your initials.
Here are the sites that I looked at, but there are many other examples if you are interested. Please remember to keep any artwork that you create.
Hi Mrs. Macleod
Hope your having a wonderful week it’s been fantastic at home but I wish I was at school though.
From Savannah R
Hi Savannah and thanks for getting in touch. I wish that we were in school too! It is very lonely doing the Blogs at home and I miss us all being together so much. I am glad that you are safe, well and having a great time at home. Best wishes to you and your family x
