Happy Thursday Everyone!
We hope your week is going well and you are all safe and happy at home. It’s been lovely to hear from some of you about what you have been up to and some of the activities you have been trying out. Today you can continue to look at your packs and choose a Literacy, Numeracy and Across the Curriculum activity to complete. In your pack today we have included an imaginative writing task about Blackbeard. Try to remember our imaginative writing targets as you write – you could maybe underline and self-assess with pink to make you think/green for go after you have finished.
-Can you use different starters?
-Are your characters involved in the action?
-Can you take a new paragraph for beginning, middle and end?
-Can you include a simple ending?
Also if you are looking for an additional Maths challenge why don’t you try some out on: https://nrich.maths.org/9412
Next term we will be learning about hot and cold countries and in particular animals in these countries. You might enjoy seeing what some of these animals at the zoo are getting up to now they’ve no visitors!
