Good morning Discoverers, 

I hope that you had a great night’s sleep last night, and are ready for a new day 🙂

In English today, you are going to use Tuesday’s list of differences between night and day, and create a setting description which focuses on the nighttime. 

You worked excellently with your daytime paragraph, and again, I would like you to think about including adjectives, similes and metaphors in today’s. 

Remember to describe what you can hear, see, touch, taste and smell, if all of these are appropriate. The more the better! 

If you would like to, you could write your setting description in the style of a poem, and it could be written in any shape or format. 

Well done on your efforts for yesterday’s maths problem. You worked through this patiently, and managed to work out which amount you would prefer. Here is my answer for you, so you have an idea of how you would explain the reasoning for it. 

Today, I have another problem for you, which not only requires you to find a particular amount, but it also wants you to find more answers, that meet the same criteria. 

Again, work slowly through the problem and try to find as many combinations as you can. 

In science today, we are going to be looking at the effects of deforestation. 

Here is a video for you to watch: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VFcIxfc8nCg&feature=emb_logo

For today’s science work, it would be great if you could create a poster to help stop deforestation. 

To make the poster effective, you could include some of the problems that deforestation causes. 

I hope that you all have a great day,

 

Mrs Taylor
