Home Learning

English: This week for your English I would like you to complete the Mr Stink criss cross puzzle which I have stuck in your home learning books. Use the clues to help you fill in the letter spaces next to each number and, once you have worked out each clue, the hidden word should be revealed.

Maths: For Maths this week I have stuck another problem in your home learning books. Read the problem and see if you can work out one of the possible answers.

What we have done this week

As well as completing our own water cycle diagrams we also did some other activities in order to achieve our science learning objective this week. One of these activities involved cold mirrors (which had been put in the fridge at the start of the day) and asking the question ‘what happens when you breathe onto a mirror?’ We decided that what we could see and feel when we did this were water droplets and that the water had come from the water vapour in the air from our lungs. This process is called condensation and we learnt that these changes in the state of water (by evaporation and condensation) are reversible changes.

We then talked through the process of the water cycle and completed our diagrams before trying to remember what we had learnt by learning the ‘water cycle song’.
