Spellings
This week we are going to be investigating words which contain silent letters which make them tricky to spell.
First have a look at the video on the link below.

This week I would like you to find out which flavour cake you are going to make your design from. 
To do this you could make some basic buns and then add various flavours to them to decide which is your favourite. You could even ask other members of your family which they like best and do a vote to decide which is their favourite.

Here is a recipe for a basic bun mixture :
8 oz self raising flour
8 oz baking magarine
8 oz sugar
1 teaspoon of vanilla essence
1 tablespoon of boiling water
4 large eggs

Method
  • cream together the margarine and sugar
  • mix in the 4 eggs and vanilla essence
  • add in the flour slowly
  • add the boiling water
  • put bun cases in a tin and fill each case half full of the mixture
  • bake in oven 180 degrees F for 17 minutes
This mixture will make up to 24 buns depending on size of cases.
To change the flavour replace the vanilla essence with a different flavour eg: orange, lemon, coffee.

You don't have to use the recipe you may have recipes of your own that you could use.

After this you should know the flavour cake or cakes you are going to use for your design.

Music

Use the link below to have a go at composing your own music using sounds around you.

Picture news

Story: As some children return to school, we think about how our routines have changed during this time.
Question: How important is it to have a routine?


Ongoing project

This half term we thought it would be nice to do some research about an aspect of our local area. We decided that the 3 churches and their history would be a great project. We would like you to find out about them and present your work in an interesting,exciting way. We particularly would like you to look at how each church is similar /different. You could maybe talk to people who attend these churches and ask them what it is like and the things that happen during their services. Find out about the Catholic, Anglican and Methodist branches of the Christian faith. They will have things that are the same and some things which are very different.You could maybe do a painting/drawing or model of one of them too. 







You could also included Selby Abbey, as this is a fabulous building with so much history.
