Hi everyone.
«»
Thank you for sending me your interviews yesterday, they were amazing. We had lots of different ideas about who we could interview, with some people pretending they were talking to their favourite sports stars while others interviewed real people who played different sports and wrote down what they said.
Right, time to get started. 
PE:
Have a look at the below link. There are lots of ideas for different PE type activities that you could do at home; give one a go!

Maths:
For you maths today I have set you a task on MyMaths looking at tables or multiples. Some of you might be ready to move on to a new times tables so you might find it a bit tricky but I'm sure you will rise to the challenge. Other people might have a bit of times tables revision instead.
If you need a quick reminder about how to log on then click on the link below and it will take you back to Friday's webpage which has everything on that you need.

Reading task: 
I would still like you to read for 30 minutes please. Ideally, I would like you to read your school reading book or a book that is similar in difficulty. However, if you choose to read something else then that's ok too. As long as you're reading, I'm happy. 
Spellings:
Don't forget to keep working on your spellings.
Writing Task:
For your writing task today we are going to do a bit of grammar work and look at how to use contractions. These are something that you use all the time when you are talking but can be tricky to write down.
There are two links below, one for Year 3 and then one for Year 4.
For you final tasks it asks you to write about Marie Curie or someone who inspires you. If you would prefer to write about a sporting person instead then you certainly can as lots of you said that you found the person you wrote about yesterday inspiring.

For activity 2 you don't need to write out the whole sentence, just write down the contractions because you will need them for activity 3.
Year 4

There is a word mat below to help you if you need it.
Topic work
The project this week aims to provide opportunities for you to learn more about sports and games. Learning may focus on the history of sport, sporting-heroes, physical challenges and performance.
● Our Sport Heroes- How many famous sports people can your child name? Ask them to choose a sports person and research online about them. Can they find out how and when they started their career, or any other interesting facts about them? Encourage your child to create a timeline that details all of the achievements of their sporting hero.
● Tissue Paper Sports Logo - Ask your child to use scrunched up tissue and paint to recreate the logo for their favourite sport team or design and create their own sport logo, perhaps for their school team. Your child could sketch this with pencils as an alternative.
● Super Movers! - Encourage your child to take part in this football themed Super Movers! There are two levels - Super Movers are a great way to keep active and have fun! Try Go Noodle and dance along to one of their routines - there’s plenty to choose from and the whole family can join in! Your child could design a poster encouraging others to take part in sporting activities. Ask them how they would persuade others to join in. What type of words could they use?
● Sharing Sport Interests - Encourage your child to ask different family members about their favourite sports and any sports they took part in growing up - were they a part of any clubs? Did they take part in any competitions? Did they win any trophies? They might find out something new about their family members! Following this, can your child use the information to write a newspaper report recounting one the memorable events? They could include quotes from the interview.
● Powerful Paralympians - You could explore diversity in sport with your child. Ask your child to find out about the Paralympic games and famous paralympians such as Ellie Simmonds. How have these people overcome challenges to represent their country in their chosen sport? They could write a letter/email to a chosen athlete and ask them questions about their sporting journey. Or they could draw a detailed sketch of the athlete during a winning moment.
I hope you have a lots of fun with the sporty topic work,
Mr G
