Good morning P7, we hope you had a restful weekend.
Here is today’s Literacy Work:
There are many different characters in White Fang; your task today is to do a character study on 2 of them. In the centre of your page write the name of your chosen character, around the outside you must include information about the character – this can be physical traits, looks, personality etc. Write what you know about the character so far and use direct quotes from the book to support what you are saying.
Keep up to date with your ‘White Fang’ reading

Continue taking notes: Who are the main characters? Where is the novel set? What are the main events of the story? This will help you write a book review at the end of the novel. This can be in your Home Learning Jotter or using a template like below (or if you find your own that’s fine too).

Today we are going to look at quite an advanced piece of maths, the calculations involved in working out Speed, Distance and Time. It’s something we need to learn a bit about before the move to high school, don’t worry if you find it tricky to start with, you’ll learn more about it at secondary.
Start by looking at this PowerPoint which will explain the concept.
There’s a little online starter mental game:
