MATHS

L.O ARITHMETIC

YIPPEE! It’s Friday again and you know what that means. FRIDAY ARITHMETIC TEST. Click on the PDF attached below, and your questions will appear just like magic. It’s Test 8.

Do your working out and answers in your Maths Book and then get someone to mark it for you. BLOG me your score out of 40 please.

The answers are on the last sheet of the test. Please don’t look at them until you have finished, it will not help you. 

ENGLISH

LO: To use grammar and punctuation skills

Complete the next 10 min test from the purple KS2 Grammar and Punctuation Book: Book 1 Set C test 2 page 44. When you have finished, use the answers to mark your work out of 12 and post this score. 

Remember a modal verb shows the likelihood that something happens: could, might, may, would, should, ought to, can, will, must.

LO: To use formal language

Click on the document below and read this comic-strip about Tim Berners-Lee, the man who created the World Wide Web.

Then write today’s date and LO in your exercise book or on a word document. Your task is to write a biography about Tim Berners-Lee using the information you have just read. It should be at least one page long and be good quality writing. A biography uses:

• formal language (as if you are speaking to the queen), unlike a comic strip, which is informal (like speaking with your friends).
• chronological order (time order). Start with his birth and early life and continue up to the present day using paragraphs to order your work logically.
• key dates and facts about his life.
• time adverbials are really useful to begin each paragraph: during, later on, after a while, before long, just then, immediately, in the blink of an eye.
• Details to interest the reader.

Click on the link below to see an example biography about Shakespeare, which helps you see the language and the structure of the text you need to use.

DT

LO: To use DT skills

There are two DT options to choose from today, based on our inventions learning this week.

OPTION 1

Make your own camera obscura. Click on the link below to watch how. You need a room that can be made quite dark with the curtains closed, a toilet roll and some hair clips. Take several photos of the image your camera obscura makes over the course of the day and attach it to the blog or email it to me.

OPTION 2

Make your own Rose-Water Perfume.

Ask an adult to help you with this task. All you need is rose petals and water. I am sure you could try a different flower if you want. In the clip it asks you to use distilled water, but normal water is fine. Also you do not need the aloe vera gel. Click on the link below to see how it is done. Take some photos of you making the perfume and attach them to the blog or email them to me. How did it smell?
