Class 4
Good Morning Class 4. I look forward to seeing you all later on our Teams calls. 
I will be be explaining where to find your science work on Teams if you have trouble finding it.
Today looks like...
English - Use of conjunctions in persuasive writing.
Maths - TT rockstars & Finding the area.
1pm Teams call for Year 6.
1.30pm Teams call for Year 5.
Science - Lesson 3 of animals including humans - The circulatory system. (This is the piece of work I would like to see today. You will be able to submit it to me through Teams when you've finished.)
Don't forget that you need to do 30 minutes reading today and some physical exercise too. Look at the home learning tab for information about both of these. Remember, you can do these activities at any point during the day.
I am really impressed with the Olympic mascots I have recieved so far. They are amazing! You still have time to send me yours if you haven't already done so. I just need it by the end of the day today.
We have finally made it past our current record of 21 people completing their TTrockstars sessions. Yesterday there were 22 of you! It's creeping upwards. What was amazing though, was that ALL of the Year 5s did their sessions yesterday! Well done Year 5! You all got an extra dojo for that. Keep it up!
Remember to look at the daily Collective Worship. You can find it under the News & Events tab on the website, under School News.
Your lessons for today are...
English
Yesterday, you were planning your persuasive letter. Today, you are going to look at the use of conjunctions to help structure and sequence your writing.
Today's LI is: To develop an understanding of how to use formal conjunctions.
Here is the link for the lesson. As always, you can pause the video at any time.

Year 6, there isn't a video for you today. Don't worry though, the questions are based on what you have done in the last week or so in maths so you should be fine. If you do find it difficult then don't worry, I can go through it in our Teams call.
Here is the Year 5 video...
Here are today's question sheets.

Afternoon
Science
This is the third (and last) lesson on animals including humans. This lesson is about the circulatory system and builds upon Monday's lesson.
Today, I have put your lesson on Teams under assignments. If you login to Teams as usual, you will go to the posts front page as I've shown below. Then click on assignments as I've highlighted below.
Then once you've selected assignments, you'll see the lesson as I've highlighted below. It's called animals including humans - lesson 3. If you click on that, you will see an explanation from me plus the powerpoint and activity for today. Go through the powerpoint as usual, and it will explain what to do.
If you have trouble finding the lesson, don't worry as I can explain again in our Teams call.
Have a great day, and I'll see you on the Teams calls. Mrs Barker x
