Spellings: Word webs
This week we are going to build up a word web as a strategy for learning tricky spellings.
Using the root word sign as the centre of your web, you will add a prefixes and suffixes to make new words with new meanings around that root word and build up the web (you should finish with a poster full of words that have the root word within it). For example:
designers designing
redesign sign design
designer designed
Aim for fifty words! Remember that you can add a suffix onto a suffix and a prefix onto a prefix as long at is has meaning! I wonder who can achieve the most words on their poster - all correctly spelled of course! Use colour if you would like to make your poster more interesting. Choose 10 of your words and put them into complex sentences. Can you get all 10 into one meaningful sentence?
HAVE FUN WITH WORDS! Let's get some exciting posters on the blog!
Weekly Wider Curriculum Tasks
1. Read the comic strip.
2. Choose one of the battles mentioned and
research it. (If you researched the Battle of Stamford Bridge last week research the Battle of Hastings this week.)
3. Share your learning (you could create a comic
strip as used in the clip but this can
be done in any way you choose; remember that blog posts are more effective
if illustrated). Science -This week we will be revising life cycles
Life cycles
Watch the two video clips, then work through the two activities. Next focus on the human life cycle - make sure that you learn, use, understand and can spell the scientific terms! Remember to test yourself by completing the two quizzes at the end. Can you show the human life cycle in a labelled diagram to share with your peers?
Music -
Use the link below to have a go at composing your own music using sounds around you. There is a video to watch and three activities to complete.
DT - Four week project
Continuing your DT project: now your research and designing is complete, it is time to test out your ideas regarding possible materials and how these could be joined. It is always sensible to test out your ideas so any necessary modifications can be made before the next stage of building. Now is a good time to reflect back once again on our Mongolian yurt project and the testing our materials afternoon we had. Gather together any possible materials and joining tools and fixings, and have fun testing your ideas. Make notes on what works and what needs to be reconsidered either on your design or a separate sheet. This is also an opportunity to note down anything you will need to gather over the next week when you will build your chosen animal home/church/other construction.
Ideas for testing materials
Further ideas
Here is an idea for making supports or poles out of paper.
Please share your testing experience and how you have overcome any issues.
If you do not feel you have the tools or materials to actually build your project, you can still test your ideas out using paper, empty cereal boxes, water bottles etc and create a prototype.
RE - Christianity
Keep working on your ongoing project of Christianity in you local area. You could visit one of the churches and photograph any Christian symbols you find there and note similarities and differences between them.
Follow this link to find more information about what the Christian faith represents to help you with your project:
