Hello, Mercury Class,

I hope you are all well!

Please see, below, our remote learning tasks for today. Remember, these are optional, as you will be meeting your new teacher and completing work for them, today.

English

Year 4/Year 3/Table 2

• With an adult, explore this website from The National Trust and the 50 things to do together: https://www.nationaltrust.org.uk/features/50-things-to-do-before-youre-11--activity-list
• Discuss which activities you have already done and those you would like to do in the future. Make a list of the activities you have done already.
• Then select a few to write about, recounting the events, e.g. Paddling. I went paddling in the sea in Blackpool with my Dad. The sea water felt icy but I didn’t mind. When I walked in the water, I stood on a stone and it hurt my foot! After that, my Dad bought me an ice cream with a chocolate flake and some strawberry sauce. It was a great day!
• Now make a list of the activities you would like to do:

• 1.
• 2.
• 3.

• Check all sentences and punctuation together.
