Home Learning Day 5

Date: 27th Mar 2020 @ 9:03am

Good morning everybody!

It’s day 5 of your home learning journey 😊

I hope you are all as awake and ready for the day as I am? I’m starting with a Joe Wicks workout and a dog walk afterwards!

I wanted to come on bright and early so that I could tell you that CHESTER ZOO is hosting a LIVE virtual tour of some of the animals TODAY!  Starting at 10am, you can watch Red Pandas, Rothschild Giraffes, Asian Elephants, Butterflies, Sun Bears, Sumatran Tigers, Humboldt Penguins and the Aquarium!

(Note: somebody in your family would need to log into Facebook for you to watch- just visit the Chester Zoo page and you will find a link to it there)

You never know, you might learn more to add to our Life Cycles topic!

Also, Chester Zoo have loads of resources on their website for you to have a go at if you can’t get onto the virtual tour:

MATHS:

I have set you a tournament on Times Tables Rockstars, too! (bear with me as I am still getting used to the website myself)- see if you can beat the teachers on it together!

For those of you that love a maths challenge, White Rose have an amazing website with some great problem solving and reasoning activities on each day if you want to try it out! You’ll find the activities here:

Literacy ideas for next week:

We have used this website for some picture writing ideas before now, but they have lots of other things, including a ‘Challenge Book’. If you love writing and would like a challenge next week, check it out- there are some amazing questions for you to answer on there that will get your imaginations running wild!

 

Keep it up, guys! The weekend is around the corner. Have a lovely few day’s break from work, enjoy the fabulous weather and I will speak to you all again bright and early on Monday.

Look after yourselves, be kind to each other and keep smiling!
