Good morning Venus,

Here is today’s schedule:

09:15-09:25: Say good morning to your class mates. EMW.

09:25-09:30: Register.

09:30-10:00: We will go through today’s work, discuss any issues, check all your links work and that you are able to open the documents and videos. It is your responsibility, to look at the independent work and make sure you understand is expected of you. Lastly, looking at today’s non screen activity task and kindness task.

Can I remind you all, that no one should be in their pyjamas or in bed! Everybody should also make sure that they have eaten their breakfast before the register is taken. This is a learning environment and you need 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: Lesson 1 – Live Online: MATHS – Multiply 2 digits by an Area Model

Today, you will learning another strategy to help you, specifically when multiplying 2 digits by 2 digits. It is a bit like a multiplication grid, so it makes this another visual strategy. You may find that this is a concept that you may find challenging and that is okay but as always when it comes to your independent activity, do your best and try to push through.

What is your favourite strategy to complete multiplication calculations?

*LESSON 2:  LITERACY – Write An Alternative Ending to a Story

Today,  you will be reading the rest of The Viewer and discussing its ending. It is quite a complex and mature ending to understand. There are many questions that have been left unanswered and you have the chance to answer them. It is up to you to write an alternative ending to The Viewer. This is your opportunity to be the author and dictate how The Viewer ends!!! You will need to show off all the skills you have learnt during this unit: interesting adjectives, verbs (phrases), adverbs, non-finite clauses and of course, show not tells, to make it a successful piece of write. Can you, use the questions at the end of the lesson, to help guide your writing?
