Maths 

Today we solved more worded problems involving length. It is very important that if you have a question where the lengths are different (e.g. 80cm and 1.25m) then you must convert one of the measurements to match the other (e.g. 0.80m and1.25m.) Make sure that you keep one digit per box and give your decimal point a box all of its own too!

Remember the basics:

  • 1.0cm = 10mm
  • 1.0 m =100 cm
  • 1.0 km = 1000m

Have a go at the sheet below.

English

Today, we collected out ideas for our own ‘The Magic Box’ poem. We based our ideas on the wonderful things about our planet and what we would like to protect inside our wonderful box.

Please use the Youtube video below to help generate ideas.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iYXBJmrsxZU

Now complete the diagram sheet below using all the wonderful sights, sounds etc from our planet. Remember to think about developing your language skills by adding personification, onomatopoeia, similes etc.

E.g. a host of stars illuminating the dark black ocean of a sky.

or the orange-pink tones of a sunrise on a crisp winter’s morning.
