Today it is English, Maths and Science.

English

Please continue to follow the plan you did on Tuesday. I am looking forward to reading all your letters.

Remember the following points:

  • The point of view is clearly stated in the first sentence.
  • The strongest argument is introduced first.
  • Use questions to provoke a reaction.
  • Use statistics to reinforce the argument.
  • Use furthermore and in addition to link your ideas.
  • Use indeed and besides this to emphasise a point.
  • Use in conclusion to sum up the argument.

If you have completed your letter, and checked it through carefully, you might want to make yourself a bookmark.

Maths

We are continuing to look at finding the area of a shape today. Remember area is the amount of space the shape takes up. Watch the video and then try the worksheet below.

Some of you might like to choose a statement to investigate like the area and perimeter of a rectangle are never the same. Remember you need to find out whether the statement is always true, sometimes true or completely false.

Science

Today, we are looking at how vibrations change when a sound gets louder.

Watch the BBC Bitesize clip and then take a look at the presentation below.
