We are going to be looking at words which contain the /sh/ sound but spelt with 'ch'. Watch a quick video on BBC Bitesize by clicking this link:   When is the 'sh' sound spelt with 'ch'? - BBC Bitesize

 

Complete the word search 030121.year4.GPS3wordsearch, then choose five of the words that you have found and include them in sentences. I wonder if you can also include fronted adverbials? For example, In the Winter, we stay at our family chalet in the Swiss mountains.

Today’s lesson is all about tenths.

Don’t forget to check the video link to see how to complete each event safely. You have 30 seconds to complete as many repetitions as you can, apart from the Ski Sit when you must just time how long you can hold the position!

 

P.H.S.E.                                                            

Last week you looked at how to make a new plan and set new goals even if you have been disappointed. This week you are looking at how to work out the steps to take to achieve a goal and how to do this successfully as part of a group. Begin today’s lesson by looking at the PHSE Input and then completing the PHSE Activity.

 

Have a great home learning  Wednesday.
