Tuesday 2nd June

Good morning everybody! I hope you enjoyed learning about your family yesterday.  Today we are going to continue our friends and family’s theme.   When you have completed any of your work, please email it to your class teacher. Here are our email addresses:

Mr Bemister: otters@knowle-plymouth.co.uk

Ms Edwards: foxes@knowle-plymouth.co.uk

English:

Today you are going to choose a member of your family - or a friend - and find out as many things about them as you can.  You will need to talk to this person to find out as much as you can about them.  If you want to write notes about a family member or friend  that doesn’t live with you, you could ask permission call them or video chat!  Your mission is to find out 20 things that you will use to write a poem tomorrow.  Find out all their favourite things like colours, music, food, places and animals.  Write notes about their appearance, such as what they wear and what they look like.  Write notes about what they do, their skills and hobbies. 

In your books:

• Write the friend or family members name
• Write a numbered list of the 20 things about this person.

Maths:

In maths over the next few weeks, you will be consolidating your understanding of the number operations, using written methods for addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. You will be practising arithmetic questions.
