family. 2. The creative games you have invented to pass the time. 3. About the things you really look forward to each day.
French - Daily routine at school.
This week we will be learning about the daily school routine in France, it is very similar to ours in England. Watch the clip below, and see if you can practice the vocabulary as it comes up on the video. Pause it at each word that is written on the screen, and listen and repeat after the characters. This will help with your pronunciation of the words.

If you fancy more of a challenge, try writing your own version of your normal school routine in French.
ICT - Creating your game.
Now that you have your main character for your Scratch game, you can now start programming and coding the blocks to make your game. This can be as simple or as complex as you wish. Go with what works for you. Here is link to help you get started (the chase game, and the pong game). I can't wait to see some of your creations and play them when we get back to school!
4. Trying to make the flying puppets for the art project. 5. Funny things that have happened whilst playing games online
with your friends. 6. Cooking and being creative. 7. Home Learning Challenges you have enjoyed. 8. …Knowing more than your parents in Maths …J hehe
I have attached some pages from the book so you can remind yourself how a might diary can look!
Good luck. Remember with this challenge you can do as little of as much as you want – it is totally up to you.

Last week you kept a diary of all the foods that you ate over the duration of a week.
This week we want you to use this information to try and work out what type of food groups you are eating.
We want you to classify the foods you ate into these categories:
Carbohydrates/Grains
I hope you did well on last week’s spelling practise. See Resources Week 4 – Spelling.
This week: Have a go at correcting these spellings.
Step 1: Try to sound out the word and use our classroom technique to spell the word correctly or get as close as
possible.
As I’m sure you have seen, Joe Wicks is doing daily exercise classes - have a look and try one! You don’t have to do this
at 9:00 each morning – they are always there for you to look at.

Christians believe Jesus came to Earth to get people into heaven but also to make the world more like heaven. Jesus told stories (called parables) about the ‘kingdom of God’ or the ‘kingdom of heaven’ to explain this idea. For Christians, the kingdom of God is where God rules – not a geographical place, but in human hearts and minds, in their everyday lives and communities. Jesus commanded them to love thy God and love your neighbour. Can you find some of the ‘kingdom parables’ to find out what the ‘kingdom of God’ is meant to be like. Here are some examples: • The Feast: Luke 14:12–24. (Put this into
In order to do this, you will need to remind yourself what types of food belong in each class. Use the Resource Week 4 – Science to help you.
Write down all the different foods you have eaten in a list. Now you will identify the correct food group for each food by writing next to it which food group it belongs in.
For Example:
1. Milk – Diary 2. Bacon – Protein
The main learning point here is:
EXAMPLE: The first word spelt incorrectly is :
according
Sound out:
Ac - cord - ing
What did you notice?
That’s right, there is a strong ‘C’ sound which means it needed an extra C.
Step 2: Mark you work by using this online dictionary
Step 3: Give yourself a score out of 8.
If you do not have a printer, it is okay to just write the words down
on paper J
Extension: Can you use these words in your own sentence. Have
some fun with this.
Example: According to Mum, I don’t have to clean my room for a week!
REMEMBER: You should also be continuing with last week’s spellings – keep practicing the year 3 and 4 words, followed by the year 5 and 6
a search engine and you will find the new international version of the bible story)Who would you invite to a feast? Who does Jesus say will be included?How does Jesus want his followers then and now to behave?
Can you classify the foods you have been eating?
Extra Challenge: Finally, think about how you could record your results. You could use/create a line graph, pie chart to show which groups you are eating more or less of.
