A good Monday morning to Skylarks,

Over the weekend, I discovered something that ties in very well with our research on a particular individual that we did at the beginning of our home learning. Last week, Malala Yousafzai graduated from Oxford University. This is something that is a fantastic achievement for her after years of campaigning for women’s education. Please have a read of one of the following newspaper reports to start off your Monday morning:
Home learning timetable
This week I have attached a weekly timetable that consists of activities as part as your ‘Young Leaders Award’, which you would have completed during this year. The activities are based online and it is a great way for you to develop confidence and an understanding of what makes a team leader.
Maths
Continuing on with our learning of decimals, I would like you to have a go at the following lesson which is about subtracting decimals (which again is very important in terms of money). Please follow the link: https://www.bbc.co.uk/bitesize/articles/zk4kvwx
English
This week as part of your writing and reading, I would like you to follow the lessons on Oak academy for writing a diary entry. Today’s lesson is linked to your reading comprehension focusing on the skill of inference: https://classroom.thenational.academy/lessons/diary-entry-reading-comprehension-inference
Message from Mrs Powell:
Tolerance
Today we are thinking about Tolerance. Look at this video, it made me smile!

Which characters were being intolerant?
How do you think the big bird felt?
Why were the little birds mean to the big bird?
What could the little birds have done to make the big bird feel welcome?
Now read this poem, could you make a poster of it for our sharing window?
We are all born
In a different way
How we look
And what we say.
From different countries
Around the world
Of different genders:
Boys and girls.
Of many sizes
And colours too,
The things we like
And the things we do.
If everyone
Were the same you see
You wouldn’t be you,
And I wouldn’t be me!
Take care everyone!
Miss Thwaites and Mrs Hulse x
