Friday is here again!
You have all been very busy this week and produced some super home learning. Don’t forget to keep checking the class news page.
We have a few things to get through today and I’ve given you a ‘Freedom Friday session.’ I will explain this a bit later on.
Task 1
Spellings
Listen to my sentences and write down the correct homophone.
There are 5 sentences but remember you only need to write the word not the whole sentence. Pause the recording after each one.
Times tables
We have been learning our tables throughout the year.
Listen to the recorded times tables test. Try to answer each question.

Task 3
Freedom Friday
Today, you can choose one (or more if you wish) of the activities below.
- The Great Race
She turned in the saddle and looked behind her. Emma could see the others gaining on her. Digging in her heels, she wispered some words of encouragement in the ostrich’s ear as it burst into full speed. They were making good time but there was still a lot further to go…….
Can you continue the story? Who is chasing Emma? Is this a race or some sort of an adventure?
2. Junk modelling – why not upcycle some waste materials in order to make something new? What can you find to make a model with? Be as creative as you like! Don’t forget to send a picture of your model to us.
Here are a few ideas.
3. Challenge your teacher
We have had one quiz already from lots of you. I enjoyed trying to work out who was who in the baby photos. Some of you haven’t changed at all!
Can you think of another way to challenge us? You are now the teacher and you need to set us some home learning!
Below is a challenge for you.
There are 10 pennies in the shape of a triangle. Can you turn the triangle upside down? YOU CAN ONLY MOVE 3 OF THE COINS!
Great learning this week everyone!
Enjoy the weekend and stay safe!

We are going to start our day with some Living and Learning. Here is the statement for this week.
