Ideas for home learning<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n Week beginning 21.9.15<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n English: <\/span><\/b>This week, we have been writing persuasive adverts for Marwell Zoo using a range of features such as rhetorical questions, exaggeration and emotive language. Create an advert of your own for anything you choose using the features we have discussed this week.<\/p>\n Maths: <\/span><\/b>This week, we have been working on using inverse operations to solve missing number calculations e.g. 41 + __ = 74. We have also practised a range of strategies when adding and subtracting mentally. These were: nearly numbers, using number facts, partitioning and near doubles.<\/p>\n RE: <\/span><\/b>This week, we have looked at the story of Abraham (Genesis 22: 1-19) and thought about how Abrahams\u2019 beliefs affected the decisions he made in the story as well as how he felt at different parts. We began writing diary entries to show how his thoughts, feelings and beliefs changed throughout the story. Choose another story from the bible and write a recount which shows how a character\u2019s beliefs change throughout.<\/p>\n Context: <\/span><\/b>Our trip to Marwell provided the basis for this week\u2019s context learning. We have begun to think about conservation and its importance in the survival of different animals. Children could choose an animal and create a poster listing the threats to its survival (habitat, hunting, farming etc).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Despite, the weather, everyone had a fabulous time on Monday at Marwell Zoo.
