Good Morning Class 4
The first thing we need to do this morning, is say Happy Birthday to Maya! Happy Birthday! 
We hope you have a great day with lots of cake! 
The second thing you can do, is watch this clip of the Lion King movie. We have watched the cartoon version of this clip before, but I thought we could watch the new version today.

These are your tasks for today. Remember, you can do the tasks in any order, and you don't have to do everything if you don't have time.

Maths task: 
I have set you a task on the mymaths website today. It is about units of length. Remember to go through the lesson first and then have a go at the activity. If you find it difficult, you can go back to the lesson, and you can have as many goes as you like at the activity.
Please login using your details to complete the activity. You can follow the below link:

Spelling task:
Today, I would like you to have a go at creating a transport themed word board game. Use your imagination to produce a game which is linked to transport of any type.
Once you've finished it, you could play it with your family.
Writing task:
Today I would like you to create a menu for guests on board your new form of transport. This is the new mode of transport you designed on Monday, and created an information leaflet about yesterday.
Imagine you are feeding your guests as they travel. What would you expect to eat on your mode of transport? What sort of food does it servce?
Be as as creative as possible, and think about the layout of your menu. You want to make it engaging.
Reading task:
Nothing has changed here...I still want you to read for 30 minutes! Remember to keep doing the AR quizzes when you complete a book as you would do at school. Follow the link below:

If you have run out of books to read, then visit the enrichment page on our website and read the 'what can I read next?' article.
Learning project:
The focus for this week's project is 'transport'.
The projects this week aim to provide opportunities for you to learn more about transport. Learning may focus on modes of transport, transport in the past, the science behind transport, road safety and how to be safe around water.
This afternoon, you can either complete the project your started yesterday or begin a new one.
● Is it a Bird? Is it a Plane?- I would like you to choose a major city from each continent and look at the population’s primary mode of public transport, e.g. rickshaws and Skytrain in Bangkok, Asia, the Tube in London, Europe etc. Then can you create a fact-sheet showing each city’s most popular mode of transport and decide which is your favourite, providing reasons for your opinions.
● Creativity in the Underground- Many of the London Underground tube stations have their own unique, tiled designs. Can you think of your own London Underground tube station name, and create a tile design to accompany it. You could simply draw the design using crayons, felt tips or paint. Alternatively, you may choose to represent the design in the form of a collage, cutting out your own tiles of paper, newspaper, magazines, cardboard, or whatever you have access to at home. There are some examples at the link below.

● From Horse-Drawn Cart to Jumbo Jet- I would like you to select 10 modes of transport from throughout history, using the below link to help you. I'd like you to research the modes of transport and present them on a timeline, writing a description for each one, explaining what it was and who would have used it - bonus points for including the inventors!

● Faster Than a Speeding Bullet...Train- The Shanghai Maglev, also known as Shanghai Transrapid, is currently the fastest train in the world, running between Shanghai and Beijing in China. Can you be just as speedy and complete the following 5 activities as fast as possible: Star jumps, tuck jumps, press-ups, squats and lunges. Record how many repetitions of each activity you can perform in 1 minute. Can you beat your personal best? Can you record your heart rate (beats per minute) after each activity.
● Make and Do - Make it Go!- Have a go at this hover balloon activity.

You will need the following equipment: CD, bottle top with push/pull closure, like those on some sports drinks or water bottles, blu-tack or glue and a balloon.
Alternatively, you could have a go at creating a baking powder powered boat.

You will need the following equipment: empty water bottle, baking powder, kitchen roll or tissue, scissors, straw, vinegar, sellotape.
If you don’t have access to this equipment, you can watch and read about the experiments and can discuss with your favourite, providing reasons for your opinions.
Have a great day everyone.
Take care
