Thursday

To be able to measure objects using other items as non-standard units of measurement, such as squares

How could we describe how long the bookmark is?

What objects could we use?

How many rubbers do you think we would need?

Teacher - Show pupils a pencil case and ask them if they would need more or less rubbers to measure it.

Let's recap the keywords we learnt yesterday

Short, shorter, shortest

Tall, taller, tallest

Remember to always measure from the start!

Miss Ali says that her bed cover is smooth and soft, because when she moves around the cover is nice to touch and moves so it is flexible.

Is a table soft too? How do you know?

What is the significance of being a caretaker/Khalifah? 

 What do you think the word significant means?

What is the religion Muslims follow called?

 Discuss with your talk partners!

Lets learn!

Last week we learned about the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) and why he was seen as a good role model for Muslims.

 

So the Prophet Muhammed was a caretaker, does anyone know what a caretaker is and what their job is?

Why do you think a care taker is important?

Khalifah is the Muslim word for being a caretaker of the world.

Today our school caretaker will be joining us to share what their job involves and how this role supports the life of the school.
