Good Morning Class 4
Morning all! We're all back together (at home!) today! I hope you're all well? I look forward to hearing from you today. 
I hope you enjoyed the Lion King clip yesterady? I've got another chapter of 'the last wolf' for you today. If you didn't hear the last chapter, then go back to Monday's page and have a listen.
I've realised that I forgot to put Tuesday's grammar answers on to the page yesterday, sorry about that. Here they are:
-Year 5 grammar 11 answers.docx-
-Year 6 grammar 11 answers.docx-
Remember that if you would like to send me examples of your work, or simply want to tell/ ask me something then you can use Purple Mash email or the class email address: class4@gfschools.co.uk. I'd love to hear from you.
These are your tasks for today. Remember, you can do the tasks in any order, and you don't have to do everything if you don't have time. 
PE:
Have a look at the below link. There are lots of ideas for different PE type activities that you could do at home; give one a go!

I have attached a maths question sheet for each year group today. Click on the correct one for you.

You can write your answers straight into your exercise book or you can print the sheet off and fill it in. I will put the answers up tomorrow so you can see how you've got on.
Spelling task:
Click on the below link to play the 'bouncing anagram' game. Choose 'bouncing anagram' and select single player. You have to click on the balls when they are bouncing to spell the word. It will be one of the words in the list on the left.

Writing task:
This morning, I'd like you to write a job application as someone who would like to work on board your new mode of transportation. You can decide on a specific job or it could be a general one, but think about the skills you would need for the job. If you click on the below link, you'll find an example to help you:

If you have run out of books to read, then visit the enrichment page on our website and read the 'what can I read next?' article.
Learning project:
The focus for this week's project is 'transport'.
The projects this week aim to provide opportunities for you to learn more about transport. Learning may focus on modes of transport, transport in the past, the science behind transport, road safety and how to be safe around water.
This afternoon, you can either complete yesterday's task or start a new one.
● Is it a Bird? Is it a Plane?- I would like you to choose a major city from each continent and look at the population’s primary mode of public transport, e.g. rickshaws and Skytrain in Bangkok, Asia, the Tube in London, Europe etc. Then can you create a fact-sheet showing each city’s most popular mode of transport and decide which is your favourite, providing reasons for your opinions.
● Creativity in the Underground- Many of the London Underground tube stations have their own unique, tiled designs. Can you think of your own London Underground tube station name, and create a tile design to accompany it. You could simply draw the design using crayons, felt tips or paint. Alternatively, you may choose to represent the design in the form of a collage, cutting out your own tiles of paper, newspaper, magazines, cardboard, or whatever you have access to at home. There are some examples at the link below.

● From Horse-Drawn Cart to Jumbo Jet- I would like you to select 10 modes of transport from throughout history, using the below link to help you. I'd like you to research the modes of transport and present them on a timeline, writing a description for each one, explaining what it was and who would have used it - bonus points for including the inventors!

● Faster Than a Speeding Bullet...Train- The Shanghai Maglev, also known as Shanghai Transrapid, is currently the fastest train in the world, running between Shanghai and Beijing in China. Can you be just as speedy and complete the following 5 activities as fast as possible: Star jumps, tuck jumps, press-ups, squats and lunges. Record how many repetitions of each activity you can perform in 1 minute. Can you beat your personal best? Can you record your heart rate (beats per minute) after each activity.
● Make and Do - Make it Go!- Have a go at this hover balloon activity.

You will need the following equipment: CD, bottle top with push/pull closure, like those on some sports drinks or water bottles, blu-tack or glue and a balloon.
Alternatively, you could have a go at creating a baking powder powered boat.

You will need the following equipment: empty water bottle, baking powder, kitchen roll or tissue, scissors, straw, vinegar, sellotape.
If you don’t have access to this equipment, you can watch and read about the experiments and can discuss with your favourite, providing reasons for your opinions.
Have a lovely day.
Take care
