Good morning Venus,
Here is today’s schedule:
09:15-09:30: Log into our google meet. Say good morning to your classmates. As always, there will be early morning work to active those muscles in your grey matter. Today’s early morning work will be on the screen, ready and waiting for you to complete.
09:25-09:30: Register.
09:30-10:00: Together we’ll go through today’s work and discuss any issues. Once that’s clear, I will give you time to make sure all your links work and you are able to open the documents and videos. Also, you should take a look at the independent work and make sure you understand is expected of you.
Can I remind you all that no one should be in their pyjamas or in bed! This is a learning environment and I need you to take it as seriously as you do, when you are in class. There should, also, be no personal discussions or spamming via the chat unless advised to do so!
10:00-11:00: Live Online Lesson: Maths – MULTIPLY BY 10, 100 and 1000 (Recap)
Continuing with multiplication, today you will be multiplying by 10, 100 and 1000. You have done this in the past, so I am expecting, that a majority of you should feel confident in doing the independent work. Again, some of you may find that you finish the worksheet quite quickly. If that is the case, I want you to attempt the extension worksheet.
When watching the video, make sure to take any notes, if it will aid in your understanding of how to multiply by 100. You can go back or pause the video as many times as you want! You will, as always, need pen and paper.
Remember:
When multiplying by 10, the digits move, one spaces to the left (the zero fills the empty space).
When multiplying by 100, the digits move, two spaces to the left (the zero fills the empty space).
When multiplying by 100-, the digits move, three spaces to the left (the zero fills the empty space).
Today’s main worksheet Multiply by 10 100 1000
Today’s ‘support’ worksheet for those of you, who are finding the main sheet overly challenging Multiply by 10 100 1000 Support
The extension worksheet, if you manage to finish the main worksheet, dives deeper into Multiplying by 10 100 1000
Remember to use your resilience if you are finding it tricky. You can all do this!
11:30: This is also an opportunity for any of you who found yesterday’s work challenging to join Miss Warby’s room (epsvenus2)

Please make a Bob Dylan poster that gives some interesting facts about his life. You can use the Wiki site for the information:
Make sure you make some notes whilst you watch and read. Make sure you have at least 5 interesting facts about this historic songwriter. Though the more the better. Will your poster be the best one?
Also practice the Adele version to be prepared for your “online performance” in a few weeks.
Instrumentalists:
If you have an instrument at home like a glockenspiel or a keyboard, below are the links you’ll need to download the music scores to learn this song.

PSHE: HOW TO DEAL WITH CHANGE
Start off by watching the video below. I apologise if it doesn’t work on school laptops – it’s not absolutely necessary though if you can watch it on a phone or something else, that would be great. Perhaps you recognise the illustrations – we have already read something from this author. As you listen, think about how the main character has responded to change.
Next task is to watch this video. It’s a narrated PowerPoint, by Mr Kelly, that talks about change and how we deal with it. Do you have someone to talk to usually? Can you talk to them now?
The main task is draw a picture of place the soothes you – somewhere you go when you’re feeling down. Maybe it’s in the garden, maybe it’s under the dinner table with a blanket thrown over the top…it’s up to you. Sketch it out using some of the skills Mrs Stutter taught you and surround it with the names of people with whom you’d like to share your feelings – good or bad, lockdown or not. I hope we can share some ideas when we meet this afternoon.
14:15 – 15:15: Live Session – AFTERNOON CATCH UP
Will discuss today’s work – was it easy/just right for you/difficult/challenging? We will, also, see who has collected dojo points for the day. Our daily dose of ‘quiz time, finishing off the day by continuing to read The BFG.
