Literacy. Here is chapter 5 of our class reader (it’s a short one 🙂 )
Two activities for you:
1) We loved creating animal factfiles based on Amazon creatures mentioned in chapter 4 – particularly caiman and piranhas. Create your own factfile about an animal which fred might come across deep in the Amazon. You could do a poster, a booklet or a PowerPoint.
2) Complete the questions/activities on this sheet
MAAAAATHS – Hello fractions, my old friend. We are completing this sheet of challenges today – how many can you do?
Now, in the afternoon, I would like you to have a think about our science topic for this half term, which is….Electricity.
It is very hard to recreate Mr Dawson’s exciting science lessons over the blog so I would like you to do this:
Show your knowledge and understanding of the following scientific terms which you have covered with Mr D (look them up if you can’t quite remember!). Ideally, you would make a creative video of yourself explaining what each term means, documentary-style. For example, showing conductors/insulators in your house.
If this is tricky, list the words on a colourful poster with your definitions around them 🙂
Key Science Words:
Electricity
Circuit (older children, also Series and Parallel)
Battery
Power Station
Plug
Safety
Conductor
Insulator
Challenge words: Electron, Flow, Volt
Good luck, and enjoy the photos below. We can’t wait to have you all back with us soon 🙂
