Year 4 Your Reading Plus will be your evidence for today, you don't need to send me anything else.
For your English today we are going to do some comprehensions. I would like the Year 4s to use Reading Plus today. When you log on it will probably ask you to do a test where it will work out what level to put you on. That will take about 20-25 minutes. It is really important that you take your time and read everything carefully, because it is very tricky to change the level afterwards. You will also need to do the test by yourself - no grown up help I'm afraid.
Once you have done that then please have a go at doing your first activity.
It works best if you use Google Chrome and you might need to change the zoom on your browser to about 90 % to see all of the options, it just depends on which type of device you are using. Hopefully it will be fine though.
If you don't get asked to do the test then please do two activities instead. I hope you enjoy it.

Reading Plus® Login
Reading Plus is a brilliant resource and you can log on and use it whenever you want. It has hundreds of things to read and it will unlock new levels the more you do too.
Year 3
Your work is a lot easier to find Year 3s, have a look in your Teams folder and there is a comprehension for you to do. Please record your answers in your notebook or exercise book. The answers are with the comprehension so you can check it afterwards.
When you have finsished please could you take a picture of your answers and either send it through your private Teams chat or email it to mrgamble@gfschools.co.uk Thank you.

5. Green
6. Yellow
7. How old are you?

Let's learn some Fruit words today. Join in with the video below:
Now listen to the song, 'J'aime Les Fruits' (I like fruit).
Now listen again and try to join in, by saying just the fruit words or if you have a fruit bowl at home, try to hold up the right fruit
when you hear it in the song (and don't forget to wash your hands!).
Afterwards, see how many fruits you can name in your fruit bowl. Test your grown-up!
You could even make up your own song and send it to me on video or written down, at mrstodd@gfschools.co.uk.
You could make each line the same, with a different fruit, e.g.
'J'aime les bananes, les jolies bananes'
Click on the links below to download the following Fruit worksheets:
1. J'aime et Je n'aime pas - Draw and label fruits that you like (J'aime) and dislike (Je n'aime pas).
