Today we will be learning to: write expanded noun phrases

Day 1 Task

Look at this picture of a Scottish wild cat:

It has been labeled with expanded noun phrases. This is when more detail has been added to the noun by adding one or more adjectives e.g.  long, thin whiskers.  If there is more than one adjective it should be separated with a comma.

Task:
Using expanded noun phrases, draw and label at least four features of ‘The Siamese Cat’ in your neatest handwriting.
If you use two describing words in a phrase, put a comma between them.

Here is some vocabulary to help you:
Nouns: fur, paws, tail, ears, eyes, legs, body, face
Adjectives: black, white, fluffy, smooth, long, wiggly, large, triangular, sleek, staring, blue, pointy, bright, small, elegant, regal, delicate, neat,

Challenge: On lined paper, write a full, punctuated sentence explaining which cat (Wildcat or Siamese) you prefer. Continue writing and explain your choice. How many reasons can you give?

Maths
There will be a google meet session at 11.15 to explain this work. Please login using the link sent to you via email to join in.

We are learning: Multiplication sentences using the x symbol

Look at this picture:
We can say:

There are 4 equal groups with 3 in each group. There are 12 cupcakes altogether.

We can also write:

3 + 3 + 3 + 3 = 12

Another way to write this is: 4 x 3 = 12. This means: 4 groups of 3 = 12.

This is the multiplication symbol:  X   It is a quicker way of writing groups of or lots of.

Task:
Draw this table into your book and complete the addition and multiplication sentences for each picture:

Challenge:

Topic

explore features of China

Take a look at Barnaby Bear’s visit to China:

Task:
Make your own travel brochure all about China. A travel brochure is for people who want to visit a place to find out all about it and what they can see and do there before they go.

Here is a video explaining how to make a travel brochure from a piece of paper:
