Hello again Dahl class! Another sunny day today - I took the dogs out again for another long walk, they wanted to say "Hello!" to you all, so we had a picture together. I hope you're all doing well and enjoying the activities I am setting you. Enjoy your weekend and I will be back on Monday with some more activities for you!

Writing

Today I would like you to write a newspaper report all about the Apollo 11 space mission. Make sure you use all the information you have collected throughout the week. There is a WAGOLL (what a good one looks like) attached to Tuesday’s history work that I posted, which you could use as an example and magpie some ideas from. 
 

Your report should include:

• A headline
• An introduction - including the when? who? what? where? and why? (in this order). You can find this information from Tuesday's history task.
• Writing in 2 columns (fold your page in help you if you are writing on paper)
• A picture with a caption (you can draw this e.g. the rocket taking off or the flag on the surface of the moon)
• Paragraphs that include facts and opinions (speech from the astronauts or spectators on what they saw or how they felt)
• A final paragraph about future space travel plans

If you would like to take a picture of your report and send it over to our class email that would be great - I would like to display some of your fantastic work on our class page!

Mental Maths

Today, I would like you to complete some mental maths activities. Those of you that have emailed the Dahl class email address, will have been sent your credentials to TimesTableRockstars. Each of you have been set the times tables that you need to practise. Head to the TTR website and hit ‘Play’ when you have logged in. You will then be timed and tested on the tables assigned to you. 

You can also head to the Daily 10 website (https://www.topmarks.co.uk/maths-games/daily10) where you can select which level you are working at (sent to you via email) and choose a topic to practise. We have covered Place Value, Addition, Subtraction, Multiplication and Division in class, so these areas are a good place to start revising mentally. You can change the amount of time you have to answer each question according to how you get on. See if you can improve your scores!

Music

Today in Music, we would like you to listen to this piece of music ‘Magnificent Men in their Flying Machines’. Then, practise singing the words in time with the music. Once you have practised this a few times, we would like you to see if you can add actions to the music.  

Feel free to film some of your responses and email them over to the class email. I’d love to see what you came up with!

Storytime

The Sheep Pig - Chapter 6

For today's storytime, you will hear an audio clip of Chapter 6 of The Sheep Pig being read. Enjoy!
