Good morning class 4
It looks like we had a great VE day - I love the decorarted gardens - Here's Spencers and Bea's VE-themed gardens
And some of us enjoyed a tea party in the garden - I wonder if some of the many animals pinched a sandwhich from the table? Looks fantastic though!

Firstly here are the answers to yesterday's task:
Column A: 1) 14, 2)4, 3)6, 4)6, 5)9, 6)5
Column B: 1) 16, 2)11, 3)16, 4)5, 5)13, 6)6
Column C: 1) 17, 2) 14, 3) 5, 4)16, 5) 23, 6)27
Group two - I've left you with some puzzles from my genius book. Please find page 24 'Which is the divisor' - You can see a circle with 4 numbers in the outer layer and one in the centre. The number in the centre was made by multiplying three of the numbers in the outer circle and then dividing by the last one. You might have to try a few times but there are only four combinations. Here's an example I've made below.
I can see that 3 numbers were multiplied together. Then divided to make 7 so the number which was divided had to be a multiple of 7.
Let's try 4 x 3 x 12 which is 144. ( I know 144 isn't a multiple of 7 because 20 x 7 = 140 so I won't bother dividing it)
I'll try 12 x 7 x 4 which is 336. I'll divide that by 3 and I get 112 so that answer is way too big.
I think I'll reduce it so I won't use 12 in this combination.
7 x 3 x 4 is 84. And 84 divided by 12 is WaHoO '7'
Group 1
On Monday on My maths I noticed that your scores weren't all 80% or above - So I thought I'd move it back a level and have selected the lesson on basic division. You'll need to log in to the school account https://login.mymaths.co.uk/login
username:grewel
password:algebra
Then find the 'my portal username' on the right and log in with your private account details (see Monday's page if you didn't make a note of them)
I have set a new task to do - You must do the lesson first before doing the questions.
One or two of you didn't seem to complete it and therefore it didn't show me how you got on (Harvey and Max)

Well done for finding out such interesting facts out on your planets. You'll need those facts for today's task. Firstly, look at this fantastic model planet - Great job
Esme's is very impresive too; it even has texture to it. Good job guys!
And some of you sent in your solar system drawing, complete with mnemonics.
Bea had a very strange way of remembering hers: My Vegan Elephant Munches Juicy Steaks Under Noodles.
Hmmm, why do you think that is strange? Vegans wouldn't eat steaks so maybe it's one of those 'plant-based' steaks. I'm going to ask you that Bea when we get back... Do you think you'll still remember?
It's so nice to see what you've been up to and the hard work you've done! Thanks for sending it in.
Now we're going to be using purple mash today and making a branching database. You'll need your fact sheets with you and probably Google on stand by. Spencer made an amazing, fact-filled powerpoint with galaxies of info you can use so I've attached that below my video.
As well as that AJ managed to link his information to Scratch and made a super interactive factfile. Check it out on https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/394435288/
I'll log on this evening and see if your branching data base works. It would be far too complicated for me to try and explain how it works in writing so watch my video below.

Reading
Find a quiet place to read for 20 - 30 minutes (or longer) or remember you can log onto the Oxford Owl audio stories, the myths and legends website http://myths.e2bn.org/mythsandlegends/
or the David Walliams audios too. https://www.worldofdavidwalliams.com/elevenses/
History
Like every Wednesday, The English Heritage are doing a live History lesson - I always watch too and I do see some familiar names on the comments section! Let's see if we can get a shout out for Grewelthorpe School!
Now this week's lesson is on the battle of Hastings! I loved learning about that but sadly it's a secondary School topic so I've never taught it. I do remember the English King dieing after being shot with an arrow which went through his eye though! Gory stuff!
Here's the link https://www.facebook.com/englishheritage/ - It is on Facebook so you'll need to arrange it with your parents.
Be ready for 11:30am
That's it for today
