L.O. To visualise and reason about rectangles
Today you have another interactive activity that is going to challenging you reasoning skills. Watch the video first as the two presenters you hear talking, play the game and help you to think through some strategies. Then it's your turn. Think about:
What do you know about rectangles?
Where could the rectangle be? How do you know?
Where can't the rectangle be? How do you know?
English
Date: Friday 12th February 2021
LO: To write the closing paragraph of an explanation text
In this lesson we will consider what makes an effective closing paragraph and write our own.
Publishing
Well done on completing your second unit of English work during lockdown. If you want your work marked, please publish it using the paper below and take it to the box in Corrine's meadow after half term. We will collect them on Friday 26th February by 11am. We are unable to mark work emailed to us as it is difficult to see all of the writing on screen. The publishing will need to be done in your own time as we will be starting a new unit after half term. You do have two weeks to get it done and we are really looking forward to reading all you have learnt about writing an explanation text.

Happy Half Term!
Thank you for all of your hard work this half term. We know it hasn't been easy working remotely, but we've been really impressed by your learning attitude and the quality of the work you've produced at home.
We can't wait to be back with you in the classroom very soon hopefully!
Have a lovely break,
Mrs Derbyshire and Mrs Karban.
