This is a problem that we looked at ages ago in the Autumn term, but I thought it would be fun to try it again and see what different possibilities you can think of. 
Today would have been our Poetry Slam, so I thought I would leave you with a poem today called 'If you could see laughter' by Mandy Coe.
Listen to the poet read it aloud here - https://childrens.poetryarchive.org/poem/if-you-could-see-laughter/ Challenge. - Write your own poem about laughter, what do you think it would look like? 
 It was so lovely to see you all yesterday, some of you have gotten very tall! Amelie, Sabira and Taqwaa we really missed you! We can't wait to see you again in September. Amelie, we loved the memories sheet you completed.  Learning for today...

We are so excited to see you all this afternoon!! Please see yesterday's blog for the lists and information.
Maths:
Play 'Shut the Box' with your family. 
Instructions: 1) Start with the numbers showing on all the cards. Use just numbers 1-6 to begin with. 2) The first player rolls the two dice. They can turn over the cards which are the same as the numbers rolled, or choose to add the dice together. For example, if a 4 and 5 are rolled, they would turn over the 4 and 5 cards or 9. If a double is thrown, the player's turn ends. They can roll the dice again until they can't turn over any more cards. When the player can't turn over any more cards, those that are left are added together and that is the player's score. 3) The dice are then passed to the next player who turns the cards the right way up again and then rolls the dice in the same way as player one. They now can keep on rolling dice as long as each time they can turn over some new cards. When the player can't turn over any more cards, those that are left are added together and that is the player's score. The winner is the person with the lower score. PE:
Here is another great workout from Joe Wicks and some Yoga for you to try. Enjoy!
