Good Morning everyone, here are your Online tasks for today:

PE: Today, we are ready for some more 60 second challenges, see below the attachments and send us some of your scores.

Maths: Today we continue to work through our learning of Algebra. Today’s focus is all about finding a rule with 2 steps.

Below I have attached the worksheet and answers:

Literacy: To plan a setting description

In this lesson, we will step inside Sherlock’s office at 221b Baker Street and finally see what lies behind the mysterious front door. We will develop our knowledge of clauses and phrases, and generate descriptive vocabulary about Sherlock’s office.

Guided Reading: Continue with reading Just the beginning https://www.purplemash.com/#tab/pm-home/serialmash/serialmash_saphires/just_the_beginning_pupils and answer the online questions after.

DT: Today we are looking at healthy eating and the foods you need to eat to help you maintain a healthy diet. We all enjoy a takeaway and sweet and savoury snacks but do they keep us healthy. To have a balanced diet you need to be eating food from all of the different food groups.

Using information from the poster and from your own research, design your own poster that promotes healthy eating and that encourages others to choose a healthy diet. Start your poster with a title, then fill it with facts, illustrations and text boxes.

Have a great day and keep sending all your work into us.
