Monday 20th April – Years 4, 5 and 6 – Welcome back!
Welcome back everyone to summer term’s online learning 🙂
We hope you have enjoyed the sunny weather over the Easter break (and perhaps some chocolate eggs too!)
Here is our first set of tasks for the summer term: Maths, Horrible History English, Music and some Computing and e-safety tasks.
I have been keeping up with Joe Wicks all through Easter so we will kick start the day with our PE session as normal at 9am on Youtube. Even if you’ve had a break from fitness, let’s have a fresh start beginning today. I know starting with some exercise first thing makes me feel so much more energised and positive for the day. It is great for your physical and mental health.
Enjoy 🙂
Remember to comment on the blog with your responses or email to your teacher’s email address e.g miss.spaven@wfps.org.uk we’d really love to hear from you; it brightens up our day 🙂
Here are your tasks for today and the links from the slides are here too:

Hope you had a great Easter. I was up early this morning so have completed all the tasks today. My song lyrics were about the titanic… I’ll email them to you Miss Lowe. Also taught my mum how to work out the angles on white rose maths. We loved watching the video of WFPS staff sing.
Oliver
Wow you have been productive today Oliver! I will ask Miss Lowe about your titanic lyrics as I’d love to hear what you’ve been up to.
Have you had a sing along too to As One? Or even the Rise up option for today. Singing makes me feel good!

1. £5.25
2.no beacuse 10 is an even number but is still in the 5 times tables.This is the same with all numbers in the 10 times tables for the numbers that are a multipul of 10 are a multipule of 5
For the third question i wasnt sure how to work it out
The third question is tricky Freya, it took me some time to solve. It helped to using drawings to support my mathematical thinking. If 3 cubes are the same as 2 spheres, a sphere is 1.5 times bigger than a cube. Or 1 and a half times bigger than a cube. You can use decimals or fractions to help you solve it. I did have to check my workings with a calculator.

I couldn’t pick a beat so I decided to do a 3 4 3 4 poem about Boudicca
Young ,ruthless , powerful
Fighting with a spear
Brave Celtic queen
She’s the Romans fear.
English
I did a 3 4 3 4 Poem about Boudicca for I struggled to find a beat
Young ,ruthless ,powerful
Fighting with a spear
Brave Celtic queen
She’s the Romans fear
Great choice! I find 3, 4, 3, 4 poems a great way to get me started. I wonder if you clap the syllables this would help create a beat? You could extend your ideas by adding noun phrases, include a metaphor and simile and see if you can include a rhyming scheme.

Good Morning.
We can not get on to White rose maths website. Has anyone else had this problem?
Hello! Hope you’ve had a lovely Easter. Is it the link to the website that isn’t working for you? It seems to be working for me. Have you tried searching ‘white rose home learning’ in google? It should come up as the first link and then you can just choose the year 4 option. Hope this helps!
Miss Clancy
1/2 of £3.50 is £1.75 which means combined it equals £5.25.
Tommy’s number doesn’t have to be odd because 5 is a factor of lots of even numbers like 20, 10, 50 and 40.
3 balls and 6 cubes weighs 12.6kg
1 ball = 2.2kg (x3 balls) = 6.6kg
So each cube must weigh one kilogram each.
6 cubes (6kg) + 3 balls (6.6kg) = 12.6kg.
maths
i did 5 min of ttrocks and white rose and got all the answers right
the cost of a pineapple is £1.75
the total cost of the melon and pineapple is £5.25
tommy’s answer does not have to be odd because the answer could be anything in the 5 times table and the 5 times table answers are either odd or even.
the mass of the cube is 1.2kg
Here come Vikings to brawl the world,
with there sharp swords.
By showing all their anger,
they fight with danger.
Hi Sulaiman,
This is a great verse. I wonder what your hook would be and your chorus? What could the theme of the other verses be about?

Life changes
Charles Darwin what a man
who came up with a plan
That life changes over evolution
He looked up in a tree
What could it be
A monkey that looks so much like me
Charles was full of glee
He whispered it is just a theory
That life changes over evolution
Hi Drake,
What fantastic lyrics! I especially like your use of rhyme.
Lovely to see you posting on the blog. Can you put your name next time?
Miss Taylor
they landed with success,
and joy did they feel,
with glee and excitement ,
they stepped of the rocket,
planted the flag and set back to earth ,
they arrived and were famous,
and made history,
Terrible Trenches
Rusty, angry sharp barbed wire.
Soldiers watching, eyes full of incoming fire.
Wounded, hurt, killed, disfigured.
Enemy weapons painfully delivered.
Poisonous gases creep through the air.
Wee on your hankies, better take care.
Rats, thick mud and lice for dinner
Freezing cold rain, soldiers shiver.
Skinny as a pencil now.
Not eaten properly, could eat a whole cow.
Terrible Trenches, oh what you do to me!
Dreams of home and what life will be.
Terrible Trenches
Terrible Terrible Trenches.
Terrible Trenches
Rusty, angry, sharp barbed wire.
Soldiers watching, eyes full of incoming fire.
Wounded, hurt, killed disfigured;
Enemy weapons painfully delivered.
Poisonous gases creep through the air;
Wee on your hankies, better take care.
Rats, thick mud and lice for dinner.
Freezing cold rain, soldiers shiver.
Skinny as a pencil now
Not eaten properly, could eat a whole cow.
Terrible trenches, oh what you do to me!
Dreams of home and what life will be.
Terrible trenches
Terrible terrible trenches!
Wow Cosmo, that’s amazing. I was looking for comments from Y1 in the list of comments I can see on my computer but I was floored by your powerful description. It made me stop and read. You made me feel like I was actually there, and how awful it was. Very powerful words.
Mrs Worth
What powerful lyrics Cosmo, you really made the trenches come alive with the range of writing techniques you have included.
Miss Taylor
I THINK THE IDEA OF EATING A VEGETABLE OR FRUIT IN THE COLOURS OF THE RAINBOW
IS A VERY GOOD OPTION
Is this you Tess? I’m glad you think so! I’ve been trying to be more inventive with my vegetables so I made courgetti (courgette cut into spirals) and it was delicious with a squeeze of lemon so i’ve used green and yellow – what colours have you eaten so far today?
Miss Spaven
They landed with success
And joy they felt
Stepped of the rocket
And planted the flag
they set back home
With hope they thought
And finally came back
They were mentioned and famous
And made history
And know since ages they still are discussed
Great lyrics Klea, is your song about Neil Armstrong?
Miss Taylor
I did 5 minuets on ttrocks and he missed a nort so he was a tenth of from the actual answer
English
The awful Egyptians,
With their inscriptions,
They wrapped up the dead,
From their toes to their head,
It is called mummification,
Within their hot nation,
Going along the river Nile,
You can walk the Egyptian style!
Maths
1: £5.25
2: No, because if you times an odd number by an even number, it always equals an even number.
3: 1.2
Great work Cadi, I love the rhyming that you have used. I’m so impressed with the maths work, even I found the third one really tricky, well done!! Hope you have had a lovely Easter.
Miss Clancy
C because I think mubina would be upset if I said something mean back and if I told everybody I think mubina would be embarrassed if I told everyone
Be mindful have time to think
Connect talk to someone you are not able to meet be active go outside and do exercises be creative paint something give to other share your love to family
Well done Klea; all great ways to be mindful.
Miss Taylor
Hope you had a great Easter miss Clancy
Viking song.
The Vikings came from Scandinavia
They attacked villages causing mania
They worshiped Greek Gods, such as Odin and Thor
Thanks to Alfred the Great they were no more!
Digi Safe Question
C- Tell an adult, because it is unkind and to tell friends is also being unkind.
I am creative.
Maths
They cost £525 altogether. 1\2 of £3.50=£1.75+£3.50 = £5.25
Number 5 as a factor goes into odd and even numbers i.e 25 ÷ 5 = 5 , 30 ÷ 5 = 6.
I had a lovely Easter thank you Rose, I hope you did too!
I love the rhyming you have used, well done. Great maths work too!
Miss Clancy
I have also read the book
Maths
I have done the White Rose maths questions 1 – 10.
1. £5.25
2.No because in the 5 times table there are even and odd numbers.
3. 1 cube = 2kgs
English
Married and killed her brothers
Had to save Egypt from the Roman Empire
She was well known to others
Fell in love with Julius Caeser
In Egypt she was queen
Famous, Strong and Feisty
She was born to be seen
Famous, Strong and Feisty
Ditched Julius Caesar
Moved on to Mark Anthony
He truly loved Cleopatra
But it wasn’t meant to be
In Egypt she was queen
Famous, Strong and Feisty
She was born to be seen
Famous, Strong and Feisty
Had a battle with Octavian
It was a disaster
With poisonous snakes and sharp, sharp swords
They killed themselves after
REPEAT CHORUS
I love your song Bella, so creative! I particularly like your rhyme and that you’ve thought about the structure by including the chorus.
Great maths, 1 and 2 are spot on. Number 3 was very tricky, we know that the spheres are 1.5x heavier than the cube. If each cube weighs 2kg, will this work on the scales to equal 12.6kg?
Keep up the amazing work!
Miss Clancy
I’ve done 5 minutes on tt rocks and some white rose maths
Hi Freddie, what answers did you get for the White Rose questions? Is there any questions you need help with?
Miss Taylor
1. 5.25 because half of 350 is 175 and 350+175 is 525
2. No because some are odd such as 5 is a factor of 25 and some are even such as 5 is a factor of 60
3. 1 ball is 1.8kg, 2 balls are 3.6 kg so 1 cube is 3.6 ÷3 = 1.2kg
Fantastic maths Olivia, I’m very impressed with number 3, that was really tricky!!
Miss Clancy
£5 25p no it will be even. 126kg
£5.25 is perfect, well done Esme! Will it definitely be even or could it be odd too?
Miss Clancy
£5.25 no because 5×10=50 Which is even. 1 cube = 2kg
A 3434 about WW1 Blood all around
Soldiers have all died
Trenches stand still
All is now silent.
Hi Hadley,
Well done for proving your mathematical thinking with question two. In question three if one cube = 2kg then how is 3 cubes equivalent to two spheres? One sphere is 1 and half times heavier than 1 cube. It’s a really tricky question this one and you might want to check your workings with a calculator.
Could you now extend your verse? Maybe add a simile, an expanded noun phrase, use alliteration or include a metaphor?

In 1914 it all kicked off
guns on backs, walking in mud
with there best bud
Russia was involved
this is starting to get old
stuck in the trench
with no bench
eating rice
with the mice
I don’t want to moan
I wish I was at home
its Christmas time
its time to stop
biting and fighting
until there was a big surprise
the football came out
but if you win they’ll be a big prize
stuck in the trench
with no bench
eating rice
with the mice
I don’t want to moan
I wish I was at home
starting at the end of the song
I wish I was at home
home

home
Good afternoon Rhys,
What a productive day you have had!
Well done for solving the maths problems; I like how you’ve made your song rhyme.
Miss Taylor
1. £3.5/2= £1.75
£3.5+£1.75=£5.25
£5.25
2. Tommy’s number can be odd or even because 5 times an even number it would be an even number, but if you times it by an odd number it would be odd.
3. 7 circles = 12.6kg
12.6/7=1.8
1.8*2=3.6 3.6/3=1.2 one cube=1.2kg
Brilliant maths Elvin!! I’m very impressed. Number 3 took me quite a while to figure out but you have shown your working out perfectly. Keep up the amazing work, I hope you had a lovely Easter.
Miss Clancy
Maths:-
1) The pineapple and the melon both cost £5.75 altogether

English:-Poem: About Cleopatra
(Verse 1 – ) She lived many years ago,At a time, where there was great sorrow.HER NAME WAS CLEOPATRA!
(Verse 2 – )Cleopatra's sister was always rude,Perhaps her attitude will be full of gloom.She has always been dressed in gold,And with a lamplight, which was very old.
