ENGLISH
For today’s English lesson I would like you to follow this link for the BBC lesson on synonyms and antonyms.
MATHS
Today we will look at another Fluency Grid.
Using today’s fluency grid, decide on your own numbers to work with (e.g. 4, 50, 86, 700 etc) and just do a variety of the activities. Can you remember what a composite rectilinear shape is? How many mls in a litre? How can we compare miles to kilometres?
(A composite shape is made up of 2 or more shapes. Examples: The shape below is a composite shape because it is composed of two rectangles. It is also a rectilinear polygon. To find the total area of the shape, find the areas of each of the two rectangles separately.)

Pause for Thought: Be Thankful

We can be thankful for things every day! If you’d like to, have a go at the following:
Can you think of someone whom you would like to thank? Could you send them a message or write a letter to them today? Free printable thank-you cards that are ready to colour in are available at: https://printable-cards.gotfreecards.com/categories/color-your-card/thank-you
Why not make a list of as many things as you can think of that you are thankful for today? You could ask your family to join in. I wonder if you can think of 100 things!
Dear God,
For families and friends…
We are thankful.
For the beauty of nature and the world around us…
We are thankful.
For all the things in life that we too often take for granted…
We are thankful.
Please help us to be willing to show our thanks - not only in what we say, but also in what we do - every single day…
We are thankful.
Amen.
I think today you all deserve another gold star for your fantastic home learning!
Best from Mrs Downing, Mrs Whittingham & Mr Beswick
