Do you know how shadows are formed?
Use a torch or a light to create some of your own shadows. Take photographs and share them with your Crew Leader.
What is the strangest shadow you can form? Practice making different shapes using your light source.
Make a list of all the solids, liquids and gases that you see within the day. Share your responses in crew.

Can you demonstrate changing state with something you have at home?
E.g. You could freeze water and melt ice cubes, melt chocolate, boil water etc. Take photographs and send to your class teacher so we can celebrate your science learning!
Keep an eye out on the blog for tomorrows extended study challenge.
This week in Phonics we have been covering the following sound. The sounds will be sent out for the children to be practising to recognise the digraph, say the digraph and then write the grapheme.
The children are really starting to learn and retain those sounds but will need support to blend those sounds together. Have a go at the green words and the more they hear those sounds being blended the easier it will become. There is a sentence to read on the bottom of the sheet also. Reading this and also reading the reading books that the children now have will all help to increase and improve the children’s fluency in their reading.
Thanks
Mrs Wallace and Mrs Jones.

Before half term, Crew Council delivered some personalised kindness stones to show their appreciation for members of staff in school.
We spoke about how this links to our Character Trait of Compassion and how it was a rewarding experience for both those handing them out and for those receiving them.
Linking to Kindness Week – I wonder if you could show some compassion and kindness throughout this week?
You could:
I can’t wait to see lots of kindness and compassion around school!
