Well done to those of you who have completed quizzes in the last week:

Izzy F, Will & Jack!

SPAG: Yesterday, we looked at identifying nouns. Today we are going to be identifying verbs.

Log on to SATs Companion and watch the video on verbs before you complete the activity 'Identifying Verbs'. 

If you are unsure of anything at all, please feel free to message me.

Spelling Shed: Log on to Spelling Shed and complete the new list of 'ough' words, familiarise yourself with the different sounds 'ough' can make. Aim to reach Royal Bee status.

Why not message some friends and get them to go on at the same time and set up a hive game? 

Maths: Today would have been the reasoning paper so I thought I would set some problem solving activities.

Open the PowerPoint document below and see if you can solve both of the puzzles. You could use your orange books to show your working out.

Topic: The Greek alphabet only has 24 letters, which you can see in the image below.

The word alphabet comes from the two Greek letters alpha and beta.

You can find out about the history of the Greek alphabet and how to pronounce each of the letters by clicking here.

Open up the PowerPoint below and then have a go at completing the enclosed activities.
