I'm having a few issues uploading images from the day onto the blog at the minute. I will try and have them on by the morning. If you could leave your comments on this post then I can add the photos and edit this later. Don't forget to keep practising your tables!
This week's challenge is a mystery. You have 100 words to write creatively about the image above. You could set this out however you like. It could be a news report or a story that builds tension. Try to focus on using a wide range of punctuation and grab the reader's attention.
Jenny & Elizabeth came into school today to discuss what skills and qualities people need within business. We came up with some lovely ideas such as enthusiasm, confidence, self-belief and humour.
We shared our knowledge on the Lumiere festival. We were given set challenges to complete within a time limit. We have been given a new quest. In order for us to get a head start after the holidays; I would like you to complete all activities based around fractions. Try to get a minimum of 80% on each section. You must complete this challenge in order for the class to succeed. Remember, Thomas is leading our quest, so try to gain as many points over the week to take over him.
This week we are back to part of a sentence for this week. Remember the prompt can go anywhere in your work BUT it must make sense and be the prompt as it is written. It is:
…it felt like.. Before you start writing think of all the things you can touch & how they feel. What fabulous words can you think of to describe what you are experiencing. It might be an idea to close your eyes before you start and try touching a few things but make sure they are not harmful! Force 1: Tilly R – We have been learning about forces of attraction. Gravity is the force of attraction that pulls us towards the centre of the Earth.
Force 2: Scarlet- We have been exploring air resistance through paper helicopters. We timed how long it would take for the helicopter to reach the ground. Force 3: Tilly B- We also looked at friction. We tested our shoes out on different surfaces. The rougher the surface, the more friction generated. For this week's challenge, there are no words, only a picture. You have 100 words to write the most creative piece you have to this date. As we have been focusing on a wider range of punctuation - it would be useful if you could include this within your writing.
Enjoy your weekend! Next week we will be focusing on Time in maths. I would suggest that you access Mathletics and the KS2 Bitesize shortcut on the right hand side of the blog. This would be a great help for next week to refresh our memories on how to read and tell the time.
This weeks challenge must include:
…then, in the middle of the noise… You need to think about what the noise is before you start your story. Where are you? Is it a good place? How do you feel? |
