Morning all,
Thank you for the wonderful stories - I plan to send them out to new pairings shortly, so you should have them in the morning. I'm still waiting for two...
Reading: 30 minutes or more please. I can't wait to get back to my book!
Exercise: I see that Mrs Wicks is now the nation's favourite? Good for her. Keep getting fresh air and exercise everyone.
Writing: I'd like you to get together with your pairings and read through the new story that you have received. Talk about it. Don't write anything yet. Discuss and think. If there is any editing to do, then by all means have a go at that, but I want you to leave it until Wednesday to write, just discuss ideas. This story will have five chapters. So, there are three to go. This third chapter needs to have some kind of dilemma, or problem that needs fixing. You aren't going to solve it; you are going to leave it for the next pair to thing about. So, think carefully about what has happened so far, the characters and the setting and decide what the main problem will be. Enjoy...
Maths: Common factors and prime numbers:
Topic: I love some of the work you did on storms. Here are some of them...
Brilliant, eh? Very impressive.
So, the question is... what causes storms? Some of you have touched on this, but... are there storms in Antarctica? In Namibia? In Mongolia? Are they only in hot countries? Have they got worse recently, because of the human race and 'global warming'? What is the North Atlantic Conveyor system? What is the gulf stream?
Your topic is to research whether storms and weather patterns have got more extreme recently. Has the human race had an impact on this, or is it a cycle?
Chess: I hope some of you are still playing... I am!
Revision: Based on today and yesterday - https://www.bbc.co.uk/bitesize/articles/zd8j7nb
Mrs C says our house is haunted. But I've lived here 300 years and I've never seen anything!
Sorry... try this: Why is dark spelled with a k and not a c?
Because you can't c in the dark!
Here are some pics... enjoy!
