  ??  Our Big Question  ??

We will have a 'big question' each week to get us thinking! Explain what you think the answer may be to your family and carers. Why do you think this? Can you use the conjunctions we have been learning in class to explain why you think this e.g. 'because', 'but'.Can you think of examples to support your answers?

 If elephants ruled the world, what would change?

Riddle Detectives!

Can you work out this riddle? What could you be? why do you think this?

'What has a bed but never sleeps and has a mouth but never eats? '

English Task of the Week

I wonder…

Have a look at the link: www.pobble365.com

Use this picture to answer the questions provided. Every day, the challenges will change, and different images will appear. Try to make up your own stories and draw pictures about what you think might happen next. 

I would love to see what you have written and any pictures you may have drawn. Email me your creations: abowley@hogarth.essex.sch.uk

Photo/Video of the week 

We will have a different video or photo each week to inspire our writing using descriptive vocabulary .Use your senses to describe what you would be able to see, hear, feel ,taste, smell and see. Write a description of this. 

We can also use the photos/videos to develop our prediction skills: What happens in the video? What do you think will happen next? 

Maths Challenge

With the help of an adult, find some plastic containers and fill a bucket or sink with water. 

Which container do you think will hold the most/ least amount of water? How will you check that you are correct? 

You could use a small cup and use it to fill each container in turn. Count how many cups it takes to fill each container. Was your prediction correct? 

Science Investigation

As you know, Mrs Smith loves science! There are lots of simple and fun things you can do at home to learn more in science.  Here are examples of different experiments you can at home. Each week, pick an experiment for the things you have at home. Make sure you work with an adult. 

 Healthy Body, Healthy Mind 

There are lots of exercises you can do in your home! Here are some daily workout videos you can use. 

Music

Hello to my Hogarth music lovers!

If you go to the 'enrichment' icon on the home webpage there is an assembly song tab with lots of songs for you to sing along to at home!

Choir and music makers you know where to find all your own resources under the 'parent' icon

Keep Singing!
