HOME LEARNING HEALTH WARNING!
Times are hard for everyone, the most important thing is to look after your own mental health and help your family to do the same.
We will post enough work so your children can find tasks they'll enjoy - but we aren't expecting families to be doing all of it! Do what's right for you and your circumstances.
In terms of learning, the priority is to keep reading and number tasks going whenever you can, these things will make it easier to return to learning once school re-opens.

Home Learning Week 6: 11th May 2020

Welcome to our Week 6 of Home School!
The subjects are labelled with the activities able to be downloaded below. Please try your best to get as much done as possible. If you have any questions or if you have any problem at all please do email me. We want to make sure this works for everyone so any feedback will be very useful. We also would love to see any work that you can complete and we will post them up on our 'Super Star' page

#3 Challenge

The Monkey Mystery

BEAT MR SANDERS

 I've really enjoyed seeing some of your handstands so I have set you another challenge. How many Burpees can you do in one minute? I managed 20. Can you beat me? Send me a video of your attempt and I'll post them on our 'Super Star' page. 

French-using money

 

In France (and lots of other European countries) they use Euros (E) and cents rather than pounds (£) and pence. Watch this video here for fun and pause it at 1 minute 23 seconds. From this point you'll hear lots of prices: can you translate them into English, eg 6 Euros? How much does Tom make altogether at his jumble sale?

How to draw a cat using a Paint app such as Sketches (instructions to the side of this!)

Computing 

This week we're going to learn how to draw cats using step-by-step instructions. On the photos here I'm using the Sketches app, but this method will work on any drawing program or app. You might even want to try it on paper as well.

You can either watch and copy the slideshow on the left hand side (it is set to change slowly to give you time to draw) or you could read and follow the instructions underneath here.

 

1: draw an oval near the top of your paper

2: draw two ears and a nose

3: draw two small curves coming from the nose and another underneath for the cat's tongue

4: add two eyes

5: add two large curves for the side of the body and then some whiskers

6: draw two paws at the front and two little circles at the side for the back paws

7: join up the body to the paws so that it looks like it is sitting on something flat

8: add a tail and claws

9: colour in using the shading tool and choosing colours you've seen on a real cat

10: add markings and a background if you wish!
