What a glorious weekend it has been. The sunshine shone and hopefully you all created special memories with your families. I enjoyed a wonderful walk along the Portishead coastline with my family. It was lovely to see so many families out enjoying themselves.
This week brings beautiful weather. If you have a garden, you may wish to complete the home learning tasks outside - remember sun cream.
Today's Learning Tasks:
Warm up for learning
Get ready for learning by completing a Go Noodle dance class online. Why not try out their catchy Trolls: Can't Stop the Feeling dance session. https://family.gonoodle.com/
Reading
1. Listen to the story 'The Boy with a Wobbly Tooth', which has been written by Oliver H. The story is found on the BBC Radio 2 using the link
https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/articles/5HQ1BvjqZfw408lbbf2c5dt/top-50-stories-2020-age-5-to-9
2. Spend 10 minutes reading and respond to the appropriate question below.
Superheroes
This week we are moving onto a fun practical mathematics unit focused on measures. I wonder if any of you have thermometers at home. Have a chat to someone you live with to find out. You may have a thermometer in a first aid kit to check someones temperature when they are unwell, on the heating control, in the kitchen to check the temperature of hot food or even in the car.
Create a simple obstacle course to complete with someone
else you live with. One of you will wear a blindfold and the other helps the
blindfolded to navigate the course safely. Afterwards swap over.

Fiction text - explain something that happened at a specific point in the story.

Superheroes
We have three new class helpers called Jo
Awesome, Raja Extraordinary and Sammy Exceptional who are going to help us with our writing over the next couple of weeks. We are going to begin our superhero pack on page 3, which requires you to read a fact file about each of the superheroes. Afterwards we would like you to create a new superhero, make sure you write down the hero's name, powers, how it senses the call and other features.

Measures: capacity and volume
This week we are moving onto a fun practical mathematics unit focused on measures. I wonder if any of you have thermometers at home. Have a chat to someone you live with to find out. You may have a thermometer in a first aid kit to check someones temperature when they are unwell, on the heating control, in the kitchen to check the temperature of hot food or even in the car.
Make sure you scroll down to the measures subheading before selecting lesson 1, as otherwise you will repeating an old shapes or fractions lesson.
Select Lesson 1: to be able to read the temperature on a thermometer.

Then discuss:
What was
supportive?
What
helped?
What didn’t
help?
How did
the blindfolded person feel?
How might
you do it differently if you did it again?
