Wednesday already? Good morning Skylarks class I hope that you are all well today?

After seeing a few of you yesterday, I know that some of you can worry about drawing.

You will love it! Here, have a go: http://www.robbiddulph.com/draw-with-rob

To support your speaking and communication skills, I felt that this would be a good lesson for you to do this morning. In some careers, you have to present information to other professionals in a range of ways. This lesson teaches you how to share a presentation using charts and graphs.

Message from Mrs Powell:

Explorers

Freya Stark (1893-1993)

Stark went where few Europeans, especially women, had ever been before. A British explorer and writer, her travels led her into remote areas of Turkey and the Middle East. While living in Baghdad, she explored and mapped uncharted areas of the Islamic world. Hers were some of the first accurate maps of the region. She moved on foot, on donkeys, on camels and by car – camping along the way. Stark is the author of more than 24 travel books, covering local history, culture and tales of everyday life. In spite of age and illnesses, she never stopped travelling. In 1972 she was honoured as Dame Freya Stark!  Wow!

What adventures would you go on?  Why?
 

Take care everyone and see you soon!
