​Maths

Yesterday, we recapped our understanding of right angles. Today we’re going to learn about two other types of angles.

Below is a picture of an acute angle (less than 90 degrees), a right angle (90 degrees) and obtuse angle (bigger than 90s but smaller than a straight line). There are also some examples of different angles. Can you label each angle correctly?

CHALLENGE: Have a hunt around your house and see if you can identify things that have an acute angle, right angle or obtuse angle. You can use your hand to help you. 

Music

Listen to the two pieces of music below and answer these questions about it.

• How did it make you feel?
• What did you enjoy? Why?
• What didn’t you enjoy? Why?
• Which instruments can you hear?

Don't forget...

• Log into Purple Mash and say hello to us on the blog. We really do love seeing your comments and finding out what you are up to.
• Send in your project work from over the break. What interesting facts did you find out about your family? We'd love to see all the work you did. Send it to us either through Purple Mash or the school email admin@virginia.towerhamlets.sch.uk. 
• Have a look at the new Spanish blog I've made: https://www.virginia.towerhamlets.sch.uk/spanish-blog. I'll be putting up a new Spanish task each Wednesday but there are already a few things there for you to start with. 

Keep being brilliant, washing your hands and staying safe. We miss you lots and are very proud of how well you're coping with everything.
