Get Talking, Get Learning!

W/c 22.11.10

Literacy – We will be continuing with work on play scripts next week. We have now planned our new character who will receive an extra golden ticket and get a chance to visit the factory.

Describe your character to somebody at home. What are they like? You now need to decide how they will manage to win a golden ticket and what will happen when they enter the factory? How will they meet their end?

You will be writing your own script for this next week. Look at the blog to see some clips from the film to inspire you.

Numeracy – Please practice your times tables. We have noticed that many children do not know these in Year 4.

We have moved time to next week as children needed more work on multiplication. Please practise reading the time at home. Get your parents to remind you how we tell the time so that you are prepared on Monday. Can you read the time to: O’clock Quarter to and past 5 minute intervals (e.g. 10:15, 12;35)

Can you read an analogue clock and a digital display?

Practice looking at a time table and calculate time intervals. E.g. Eastenders starts at 8pm and finished at 8:30. How long is it on for?

 Topic – Next week we will be learning all about how to use the green screen technology. This is extremely exciting! When you are watching television see if you can spot any green screen technology.
