Morning Class 4. Thank you so much for all the work I have been sent over the last few days. I have really enjoyed getting to hear from so many of you! 

Reading

Keep up with 30 minutes of reading today. Perhaps you could send me a photo of you reading in the strangest place? James in my class sent Mr. C a photo of him reading in his washing basket!!

English

In English today, I would like you to do something that I set for my class a few weeks ago. Find the favourite view from a window in your house. Spend a few minutes really looking at the view and enjoying it. Maybe note down what you can see. 

Then, I would like you to write a short poem called 'From my window...' 

Here is an example of a couple of lines:

From my window, I can see a baby calf sheltering beside its mother.

From my window, I can see a cheerful wagtail hopping along.

Remember, a poem doesn't have to be really long and it doesn't have to rhyme. It just needs to use imaginative vocabulary. You could use a structure similar to mine where you start each line with the same phrase, or you could do it a different way. It is up to you!

Maths

Thank you so much for your addition questions yesterday. If you didn't already send them in for me to check, here are the answers:

  1. 937
  2. 893
  3. 1,273
  4. 6,470
  5. 3,180
  6. 8,060
  7. 9,147
  8. 948.48
  9. 78.29
  10. 9,414 metres Bonus: 9.414km

Here are some subtraction questions for you to try now. Remember, I would like to see it neatly laid out so I can see how well you know the method.

1.) 954 - 214 =

2.) 865 - 321 =

3.)  7869 - 3425 =

4.) 9564 - 7614 = 

5.) 9333 - 5128 =

6.) 7893 - 6937 =

7.) 6504 - 387

8.) 4992 - 674 = 

9.) 789.43 - 94.21 = 

10.) The cola bottle had 673ml of cola in it and the lemonade bottle has 459ml of lemonade. How much more liquid does the cola bottle have than the lemonade bottle?

Art

Yesterday, you created art from imagination. Today, I would like you to do some observational art. This is where you use your eyes to draw something in front of you. 

We will be drawing the view from the same window you wrote a poem about! 

So you can draw the picture or paint the picture underneath your poem. It will be a lovely way to illustrate your poem and I would love to see all the amazing views I'm sure you have! 

I will post a photograph of the view from my window later today for you to see!

PE

Make sure you are staying active every day! Who has been doing Joe Wicks recently?
