Morning everybody. I don't know about you, but this hot weather makes it difficult to work! I thought I'd give you slightly less to do today, as it is so hard to get work done when it is THIS hot. It is meant to cool down slightly over the weekend. Also guys, I know it is a tough time not being in school, but CAN YOU IMAGINE being in my classroom when the weather is THIS hot? 

Here are the answers to yesterday's daily questions:

Maths

Before lockdown, we began to look at changing imperial units of measurement into metric units of measurement. We looked at changing miles to kilometres. 

Today, all I want you to do is answer the following questions. Use the Internet to help you.

1.) 1 mile = ? kilometres

2.) 1 metre = ? yards

3.) 1 inch = ? cm

4.) 1 kilogram = ? pounds

5.) 1 metre = ? feet

Here are you daily 10 questions:

1.) 674 X 28

8.) 6.432 + 5/10

9.) 0.32 as a percentage.

Competition Time

The competition this week is a photography competition. I 'borrowed' this idea from the Year 4 blog! Basically I would like you to send me in 5 photographs on the theme of 'nature' to me. 

The photographs that I think best represent 'nature' will win a blog takeover next week!

Your photos can be of animals or plants. If your 5 photos 'connect' in some way or have a clever slant, then you are more likely to impress me. 

You have until 10am on Friday to send me in the photographs.

PE

PE? Today? No way! Far too warm! If you have a paddling pool, I recommend using it!
