Good morning everyone!
We hope you had a lovely long weekend spending time with your families and getting lots of fresh air.
This week has a special anniversary in it. Friday will be the 75th anniversary of Victory in Europe (VE) Day which was the start of the process that ended the Second World War (VJ Day will be in August). We will be learning about why this day was important during this week.
We will start with maths today. The Number of the Day will be set on teams and we would like you to complete your usual tasks for that then go on to do this maths starter:
There may be a few tricky things for you but we can chat about these on teams later.
Here are your main maths tasks:
Spicy Maths Grid Method 6-5-20
There are extensions included with each task and you can challenge yourself to do more than one if you’d like to.
Our reading comprehension task this week is all about VE Day. You will learn lots of information through reading the passage carefully and answering the questions (in full sentences). Choose the task you think will challenge you without being too difficult, maybe read more than one before you decide:
VE-Day-reading-comprehension-Mild
VE-Day-reading-comprehension-Mild-Questions
VE-Day-reading-comprehension-Spicy
VE-Day-reading-comprehension-Spicy-Questions
VE-Day-reading-comprehension-Hot

We look forward to hearing from you on teams this morning but also seeing all the work you upload to your Personal Learning Blog later.
Remember, you do not need to print anything out and you can type on a word or similar document, straight into your PLB or in your home learning jotter and upload a photo if possible.
