Monday
To be able to compare and order lengths using > and <.
Let’s learn.
Let’s try the guided practice together.
Turn to page 121 and 122.
Grammar warm up
Conjunctions join together two different, but related, parts of a sentence.
They can be words like 'and', 'but', 'if', 'when', and 'because'. For example:
I wore my coat because it was cold.
You will get wet if it rains.
Spot the sentences with because and if.
Birds
Birds are animals that can fly.
Birds have feathers because they help keep them warm. Birds build nests because they need a safe place for their eggs. If birds feel in danger, they may fly away quickly. Birds will sing if they want to attract a mate or protect their space.
Birds live in many places around the world.
Remember
One part of the sentence cannot make sense on its own.
To orally rehearsing sentences in present tense and using conjunctions. Write sentences in present tense and conjunctions.
What are birds?
Birds are something we see everyday, but how much do we actually know?
Talk with your talking partner.
Ideas to talk about:
- what they look like
- where they live
- what they eat
- where we see them
- any stories about them
We will show you how to make a note of important information for you to share with the rest of the class.
Let's watch a short video for more information.
Now it's your turn to investigate to find facts about birds.
What have we learned?
We are going to answer this question in full sentences.
They can be simple sentences like:
Birds have wings.
Or they can be compound sentences using conjunctions to join ideas.
Birds have wings so they can fly.
As Historians, we look at sources of information in books, on the internet, from photographs and films then ask questions to find out about the past.
This week, we are going to look at the key events in the life of another explorer. His name is Tim Peake. Unlike Robert Falcon Scott, Tim Peake is still living and only became famous for his expedition a few years ago.
With your talking partner, answer the questions below about this photo.
Where is he from? How do you know?
Where did he explore? What evidence do you have?
What equipment would he need?
What transport would he use?
When we learned about the life of Robert Falcon Scott, we found out that he joined the Royal Navy at 13 and sailed many times before he travelled to the South Pole with his team. These were key events in his life.

Just like we did for Robert Falcon Scott, we are going to place events in chronological order on a timeline of Tim Peake's life.
With your partner put the events and dates into chronological order.
