Science

This week we are learning about the different

types of energy around us and their sources.

Energy is the ability to do work. Energy is how

things change and move. It is all around us

and comes in lots of forms! It takes energy to

cook and eat, walk, turn on lights, warm up,

listen, and to jump in the air!

1. Watch this video

2. Think about the following:

How many types of energy did they mention?

Where did each type of energy come from?

For example, light and heat can come from

the sun.

3. Draw a simple poster showing the types of

energy you learned about in the video. (Hint –

light, heat, electrical, water and wind) Can

you add any more?

Expressive Arts

People were often buried with a mask in

Ancient Egypt after mummification.

A very famous mask that was discovered was

that of the pharaoh Tutankhamun!

Do you remember that he was one of the

youngest Pharaohs?

Follow this link where you will find a mask

template. You can draw it out and design your

own Ancient Egypt mask like Tutankhamun!

Social StudiesThis is our final week to learn about Ancient

Egypt! We have learned a lot about Ancient

Egypt over the past few weeks but the most

important thing we learned is that we must use

reliable evidence to learn about the past.

Discuss your learning with a helper about all that

we covered:

• Archaeologists and artefacts

• Where Ancient Egypt was located• Daily life in Ancient Egypt• Hieroglyphs and the number system

• Pharaohs, Gods and Godesses

• Pyramids and Jewellery

Task: Use the template to design a Learning

Poster about Ancient Egypt to show your

learning. This should include information about

what you have learned and what you would like

to know more about. We can put these on

display in the classroom when we return

R.ELearning Intention: We are learning

about Lent.

Task 1: Listen to the story

called “The Parabole

Of the Prodigal Son”

(Luke 15:11-32). This story

teach us about God’s love. Do you think

the father in this story is just like God?

Why?

Task 2: It is great to know that even

when we make bad choices, God

always welcomes us back. Complete

the comprehension task attached in the

files section about the story.

Task 3: When you hear the word Lent,

what picture comes to mind? Maybe

purple, fish, ashes or fasting? Make a

poster to show what lent looks like for

you.

P.E.Skill: Sprinting.

Sprinting on the spot- Can you do 1 minute

without stopping? Can you do it with 1 minute

without stopping when you focus on getting

your knees as high as possible?

Sprinting outside- How far can your run in 1

minute? Do you keep the same pace for the

whole minute?

Try crouching down in the starting position.

Does this affect your speed/how far you go?

Does it matter what you wear on your feet?

STEM challenge

With adult supervision challenge yourself to try

some new skills in STEM:

Homemade Lava Lamp

Modern LanguagesLearn some of the words for different types of

food in Spanish by listening to this song.

pictures with the Spanish words you have

learnt.

Health and Wellbeing

We are starting a new unit of our Building

Resilience programme: Have a Goal.

In this unit we will be looking at

the importance of setting and

pursuing meaningful goals. When

we make progress on things that

are important to us to achieve we

are more satisfied with our lives and report

higher levels of wellbeing.

Family Task

help you and agree how you will celebrate
