How is your week going?

Thank you to those of you who have done your videos for Fantastic Mr Fox. We need all of you to take part for it to work so make sure you read Amy's blog and have a go at filming. 

Here is today's wellbeing task. 

English

Over the year, we have revisited the use of apostrophes a few times. They can be complicated to understand and lots of adults still get confused about how to use them.

Hopefully these explanations will help you understand them a bit better. 

Try and apply your understanding of apostrophes through these tasks. 

Question 1

Which sentence uses an apostrophe correctly?

Question 2

Why is an apostrophe being used in this sentence?

Question 3

Draw a line from the singular possessive word to the plural equivalent. 

​

Question 4

This is also your reading task for the day. While you are reading, see how many apostrophes for singular and plural possession you can find in your book. Create a table like the one below and write them in it. 

Maths

Today we’re going to be comparing decimal numbers. When we compare numbers we are working out which number is larger and which one is smaller.

We use these symbols to help us compare numbers < > and =.
​
Watch this video to remind you of how to use the symbols. In the video the numbers being compared are two digit whole numbers not decimals but the strategies are still the same.

Spanish

Have a look at today's Spanish blog here: https://www.virginia.towerhamlets.sch.uk/spanish-blog

It's great to see examples of what you have learnt in Spanish, Khalil has sent in some photos of what he's been getting up to. Why not upload some photos to your "My Work" on Purple Mash so we can see what you've been getting up to?

Don't forget...

• Please send in your Fantastic Mr Fox videos to Amy. We need all of you to send them in to be able to put the film together. 
• Keep in touch and ask us questions on Purple Mash. It's a great place for you to ask for help if you need it and we're always checking in to see if we can help. 
• Check back here for confirmation of when the next book swap will be. There is not a Year 4 book swap tomorrow. 

Stay safe, work hard and find time to have fun.
