Good Morning Stiperstones. I hope you have had a nice weekend and enjoyed all the learning we completed last week. The work you have all been completing has been amazing so please continue to keep up your high standards. We have another very exciting week of new learning to come this week.

This week, we have come to the end of learning about the story of Noah’s Ark so we will now move on to learning all about a new Biblical story, called The story of David and Goliath. Similar to Noah’s Ark, this story has lots of hidden meanings within it, that are important for everyone to understand.

We will also now be exploring a new book in our English lessons and have got a new learning area in maths also. For the next two weeks, we will be studying the Roahl Dahl book ‘The BFG’ and learning how to work out the perimeter and area of a shape in maths.

All of today’s learning is posted below. I hope you all have a brilliant week.

English lesson one:

During today’s English lesson, we will begin exploring areas of our new book, the BFG, written by Roahl Dahl. In today’s lesson, you will be exploring the character ‘the BFG’ and identifying his characteristics and personality.

Maths lesson one:

For Today’s learning, we will begin our new maths learning area and will firstly be learning how to measure the perimeter of a shape. Firstly, please complete the fluent in five maths warm up activity below.

Once you have completed your fluent in five, please watch the video clip below that will help you in understanding how to measure the perimeter of a shape.

Once you have watched the video clip, please click the link below to access today’s learning worksheet for you to complete.

Some of the questions on today’s worksheet may require printing out to be able to measure the shapes. If you do not have access to a printer, do not worry, instead for those questions, it would be good for you to find certain shapes around your house and measure their perimeter. Please write down or draw a picture of the object you have measured and write down it’s measurements. If you are able to print the questions you could complete the activity of measuring the perimeter of objects in your home as well if you wish.
