Weight
Today we are learning about standard units that are used to measure weight or mass.
- We use scales to measure grams (g) A gram is a small unit of measurement that we use to measure how heavy or light something is. We would use grams to measure: flour, sugar and butter.
- We also use scales to measure kilograms (kg). Kilograms are a larger unit of measurement that we use to measure how light or heavy something is. We would use kilograms to measure: people, potatoes, a suitcase.

Time to take a break
Literacy
Task 1
Write the ingredients that you used for your recipe neatly in your home learning jotter. If you would like to, you could write instructions on how you made them. Take a photo and draw a picture of what you made.
Reading Task
Make a den or find a special place to read a book. When I was a little girl I used to hide behind the sofa and my book. I liked it because there was a nice warm radiator there. If you are making a den, ask an adult first if it is ok.
You can choose your own book or listen and read along with the story below called No Matter What by Debi Gliori.

Time to think 
Lunch Time
Enjoy your lunch
I thought you maybe enjoy listening to a song called ‘Food Glorious Food’ from the musical ‘Oliver’ which is based on the book Oliver Twist by Charles Dickens. Charles Dickens is a famous author who lived during Victorian times.
Hopefully you wont get gruel for lunch!
Challenge
See if you can find out what gruel is, maybe you can leave us a message!
