Good Morning Everyone!
I don’t like my picture being taken and even less a video!! So I thought that this week I would include a picture of something special to me –
This my cat Amber she is 5 1/2 years old. She’s a real house cat and doesn’t like to go outside unless it is very warm and not windy! We rescued Amber, shortly after we moved up here, when she was a kitten only eight weeks old. Then she was so tiny she could fit in my hand now she’s over weight because she doesn’t go out and exercise so she is on a diet!!
This is the last week before we finish for the holidays!
If we had been at school we would have had our final SATs practice this week. Luckily you get out of that pleasure!
Maths
For maths today I would like you to work through the Arithmetic calculations.
LI – To answer a wide range of arithmetic questions
Mild – do questions 1-15,
Spicy – do questions 1-25,
Hot – do questions 1-32.
There doesn’t seem to be a Problem of the Day as it appears that Friday was the last one!
Arithmetic Questions Monday Abacus 2 P101.
English
On Purple Mash you need to listen to the poem by Samuel Coleridge called The Ancient Mariner it is listed in your 2Dos then work through the Word Detective sheet below. You don’t need to print it out, you can copy the bits you need to into your home learning book.
LI – To listen to a classic poem and to identify the meaning of some old vocabulary
Science
Read through the power point presentation on transporting nutrients and water around the body. Then look at the diagram of the body, if you can, print off the diagram to fill in the boxes. If you can’t print off the file, try explaining the different parts of the body and how nutrients are absorbed in your home learning book.
LI – To understand how nutrients and water are transported around the body
Lesson Presentation Transporting Water and Nutrients
Activity Sheet Digestive System Functions – Black and White
Stilling Time
In The Present we would be starting a new two week topic called Choosing. We make choices all day every day, some choices are big ones like what to buy mum for her birthday others are smaller ones such as what to have for my morning snack. Choices are made in the Prefrontal Cortex of the brain. This is located at the front of your brain (where your forehead is).
Switching senses – for this task you will need one object that you can pick up eg. pine cone, leaf, stone, dry fruit. Explore your object using just one sense eg. touch (so have your eyes closed) After a few moments switch to another sense eg. smell. You choose the sense to explore and switch between.
I hope you have a lovely day and email me or message if you want to.
Love
Mrs Poole

Rufus, my cat, hasn’t left the house more than 1 time a day in weeks,he sleeps all day on my bed.??
Good old Rufus!?
Thanks Maya, Rufus sounds like he and Amber would get on very well!
good morning everyone really looking forward to this week missing you all very much
Amber looks like my cat Tilly. Tortoiseshells are the best!
Tortoiseshells are lovely our vet says she calls them naughty tortis because they can be mischievous!
Totally agree!
Good morning Oak Class – what no SATs practice? Really? Oh well, how good is that? Enjoy your home learning everyone. I’m looking forward to singing with Fischy this morning.
Take care
Mrs Thomas
Are we allowed to print out the English?
Actually it doesn’t matter.
Do we do every maths question or just do half of it
If you can manage every question then do that or do 1-15 or 1-25. Hope that helps.
Purple mash isn’t letting me go onto the poem because it says you need flash player and I cant so it on mine. However its letting me do everything else on purple mash. How should I do my english?? xx
Heidi, I will email you the poem and the worksheet, thanks for letting me know. Love Mrs Poole
