Monday
English
- Complete your SPaG as usual. Rather than just doing 'Look, cover, write, check' with your spellings, why not try a few word pyramids or 'drawing' the word like we do at school.
Reading comprehension: David Attenborough
This week's theme is all based around Science and who better to study than Sir David Attenborough. Many of you know a lot about his life and work already from your own research. Open the text and question document and have a go. Remember: use evidence/quotes from the text to support your answers and you don't have to print out the document - just write your answers down on paper.
The mark scheme is available afterwards to see if your answers hit the marks.
Short written task:
I'm setting this as a very open-ended written task so you can have some fun deciding what to write. You should write in 1st person as the turtle. It could be in the style of a diary entry in past tense, or it could be written in present tense like the events are happening right now. Funny or serious, it's up to you! I look forward seeing what you come up with.
