Over the last few days, we have been practising to spell words which contain the /sh/ sound spelt with 'ch'. Today, you will be taking part in a spelling quiz on Purple Mash. Please complete the 2Do called Y4 Spelling Quiz 0502, where you will have 10 seconds to look at the word and then drag the letter tiles to spell it. Good luck!

Topic                                                              

The Viking Age in Britain began about AD 793 and lasted over 200 years. Bands of fierce raiders began to once again attack England's shores, just like the Anglo-Saxons had done 400 years before. Today you will be gathering relevant historical information to create a poster about a particular aspect of Viking life in detail (050221.year4.history2), such as clothes and jewellery, religion and gods, houses and food, rhyme and writing and art and craft. All the information you need is included in the pdf, but if you would like to do some extra research to include on your poster, please use this BBC Bitesize link about Viking life:  What was life like in Viking Britain? - BBC Bitesize

 

We look forward to seeing your posters! 

 

Have a great homelearning  Friday.
