Good morning Skylarks class,
I trust by now you have all recieved a little something in the post? If you haven't don't worry I am positive it will be on its way to you very soon.
I hope you are all still adding to your lists of what you want to do when we are out of lockdown as this is a great way to stay positive and motivated.
Today, I would like you to carry on working through your maths packs if you have activities left to do, or you can have a look at this online lesson about translations which explains it very well:

The activities I have given this week to do in your afternoons you can do in any order you choose too. Some activities are shorter than others like the Science activity.
Today's riddle: What are moving left to right, right now?
Yesterday's answer: A secret
Message from Mrs Powell:
Please watch this clip and think about what we talked about yesterday http://tinyurl.com/qbkaq75
I love this story. Do you think Mr George likes cabbage now? Can you imagine how he felt? Victory in Europe (VE) Day marked the end of the Second World War in Europe in 1945. Friday 8th May 2015 was the official 70th anniversary of VE Day. VE Day is another day that many people will never forget as it marked the end of a terrible war in Europe, though there was still fighting in Japan until later that year. Mr George’s memorable day was one of great danger followed by relief at still being alive. This is one type of memorable day although hopefully no one present will experience such a day! My Gran Peggy used to tell me when she had her very first orange as you couldn’t get them during the war; she used to make lots of marmalade as oranges became her favourite fruit! Mr George’s story reminds us that we all have special days that will stay with us forever. We don’t know when they will come or what they will be.
Take care and stay safe!
Miss Thwaites
