Music – From Miss. P
We are going to start today’s music lesson by listening to a piece of Scottish music which is a dance played by an orchestra during the lockdown.
This is the BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra all playing from their houses.
Do you recognise the music?
Next, we are going to listen to a song that you may all have heard, played on a woodwind instrument, the clarinet.. there is another clarinet being played, it’s called a bass clarinet and it is very big, so it sounds very low.
Today we are going to continue with our body percussion. Why don’t you try this with your family?
Finally, after the great success with everybody singing and playing ‘Somewhere over the rainbow’, we have another thank you to all our NHS and Key Workers…this is great fun to do with your family.

Good Morning everyone. I hope you all had a lovely weekend and enjoyed the sunshine. I hope you managed to see some friends and family at the weekend. Charlie and I visited my mum and dad again. We sat in their garden and enjoyed the lovely weather. We are having another themed week this week. This week’s theme is Japan. This was the most popular choice when you voted a few weeks ago. Space week was great. Let’s make our Japan themed week even better.
Health and Wellbeing
Did you know that there is an exercise routine every morning in Japan? Japanese people usually do this exercise in the morning maintain their health. Actually this kind of exercise is popular in Japan, China and Taiwan. In Japan, they usually say it as “Rajio Taisou” (ラジオ体操). It is from two words, “Rajio”（ラジオ), which means Radio in Japanese, and the word “Taisou”（体操, which means physical exercise in Japanese. Have a go at some Rajio Taisou!

Languages
Here is some Japanese vocabulary for you to work on learning this week.
Literacy
Reading
This week we are going to read a short book called, ‘Sadako and the Thousand Paper Cranes’.
This is the blurb from the book that tells you a little about the story.
This story is a true story about a girl named Sadako who lived in Hiroshima, Japan. Sadako dreams to be a very good runner but when she gets dizzy, she can’t live that dream. She gets to a hospital and realizes that it is the leukemia hospital.

After listening, think about the 3 sharings (Likes and dislikes, puzzles and connections). Write these down in proper sentences.
Spelling
We all have the same spelling words this week. They are all Japanese themed. Have a go at finding the meaning of each of the words. Try not to copy straight from the dictionary. Try to write out the definition into your own words.
