Morning, everyone!

It was great to see lots of you doing a range of activities to help you stay physically healthy yesterday!

It’s also important to have a healthy mind as well as a healthy body. Click the link below and have a go at these breathing exercise on GoNoodle.

Science

In our first science session this half term, we experimented what would happen to raisins in still water and in fizzy water.

If you can remember, the raisins sank to the bottom in still water and floated to the top in fizzy water.

After this, we asked questions about what would happen to the raisins in other liquids.

E.g.

Will the raisins float or sink in coca cola?

Will  the raisins float or sink in olive oil?

Will the raisins float or sink in orange juice?

For today’s task I want you to pick 3 liquids and predict what will happen to the raisins and why.

Complete the sentence below for three different liquids.

I think the raisins will ______________ in ___________

because ______________________.

Let me know which three liquids you chose.

Reading

Today’s reading task is phonics.

Segment and blend the phase 5 words below.

stray     play      shout        clouds       cried     pie

Now, read and write these sentences and fill in the gaps with the words above.

I like to ___________ outside in my garden.

There are lots of white ________ in the sky.

My friend __________ when he fell over.

I’m having a _______ for my dinner.

On my walk, I saw a __________ cat.

Maths

Similar to an addition task last week, I’ve written some calculations. This time, they are subtraction calculations.

Some are true and some are false!

Your task is to make a list of true calculations and a list of false calculations.

E.g.

8 – 2 = 6

9 – 4 = 4

10 – 5 = 4

11 – 6 = 5

13 – 6 = 7

15 – 7 = 8

17 – 5 = 11

14 – 8 = 5

12 – 10 = 3

Challenge: Can you turn the false calculation into true calculations?

Good luck with today’s tasks 🙂
