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)

***INDEPENDENT LEARNING***

11:00-14:15: During this time, you are expected, to complete the work for all three subjects, independently and upload it to the blog.

Literacy: RAINFORESTS – People

You will need a pen, lined paper and any notes you made pertaining to people that live in the rainforests.

You are to continue to write your paragraphs for your rainforest information booklet. Today we will be looking at People of the Rainforests.  This will form the final section of your information booklet (non-fiction text).

The focus of this week, is looking at the different ways in which you can start sentences. Remember, this will make your writing even more interesting.

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.
