LC: To make predictions from evidence stated and implied.
What are predictions?
As we read, we naturally make predictions (guesses) about things like what is going to happen next or what does this word mean.
We use clues in what we have already read to make these predictions. These clues are called context.
When you’ve paused the video, answer the question below.
What do you think will happen next?
Write down your prediction.
Challenge:
Now watch to the end of the Sir Gawain and the Green Knight clip.
What do you think will happen next?
Continue the story by writing the next paragraph (about 8 to 10 sentences).
Think about the title of this legend. Who is Sir Gawain and why haven’t we met him yet?
You can watch episode two in the link below to see if your prediction was correct.

LC: Plan a magazine article using a toolkit.
Today you are going to continue your plan for a magazine article for children your age about a different monster in a different place.
Remember to think carefully about what you need to write about in each paragraph.
Remember a plan is for telling you what you are going to include in your writing. It is NOT for writing sentences to copy.

LC: To control a circuit using a switch and explain what it does.
Let's recap.
Switches are used to control circuits. Switches can break a circuit by making a space between components where the electricity cannot flow. Switches are used to turn bulbs, buzzers and motors on and off. Different types of switches are used to control many electrical appliances we use everyday.
Where have you used or seen a switch?
Now we know how to make a circuit with a light, we are going to see if we can find ways to turn the light on and off using a switch.
Task
Draw a picture of your circuit with the switch closed.
Does your circuit work?
Why? Why not?
Draw a picture of your circuit with the switch open.
Does your circuit work?
Why? Why not?

LC: To recognise respectful behaviours.
What does respect mean?
Being respectful of other people is an important value. Showing respect means demonstrating a concern for people you interact with and treating them as equals.
You probably show respect in several ways on a daily basis, for instance, when you:
- Listen to others when they’re speaking
- Play fair
- Use manners when you address people
- Wait your turn
- Give someone a compliment
- Tidy up after yourself
How can we show respect to others?
- By treating others how you would like to be treated
- By thinking about the feelings of others
- By celebrating similarities between people
- By being aware of the talents and qualities other people possess
- By listening to the thoughts and feelings of others
- By celebrating differences between people
- By being proud of the achievements of others
Easy ways to be more respectful:
- Treat others how you’d like to be treated
- Practise random acts of kindness for people in your class
- Say ‘please’ and ‘thank you’
- Don’t tease people
- Be patient with others
- Be polite
Task: Draw a picture of the most respectful person you know and around the picture write down what characteristics they possess that makes them respectful.
Remember to take your time and think carefully, we will be putting these in our PSHCE floor books.
Consequences
