Just a few ideas for home learning for Tuesday 5th July 2016:
Maths: Calculating the perimeter. Use this website to remind yourself about how to calculate the perimeter. Could you have a go at creating your own shapes and calculating the perimeter? Or even calculating the perimeter of you bedroom? Or garden? http://www.bgfl.org/bgfl/custom/resources_ftp/client_ftp/ks2/maths/perimeter_and_area/index.html
Literacy: Today the focus is using inverted commas (speech marks). Use this video to remind yourself about how we can use punctuation to show speech between two characters. Could you write a conversation between two characters? http://www.bbc.co.uk/education/clips/zvftsbk
Topic: How do the muscles in your body work? Use this webpage to research all about muscles and the skeleton: http://www.bbc.co.uk/education/topics/z9339j6/videos/1
Complete the table by identifying the main muscles used when carrying out the following everyday household activities and jobs:
EXERCISE/ACTIVITY | MUSCLES USED |
walking up stairs | * |
drinking | * |
washing the dishes | * |
vacuum cleaning | * |
brushing your teeth | * |
