Good morning everyone. A positive improvement on participation numbers yesterday which is great to see. I uploaded some videos to yesterdays blog for anyone who might have missed them - make sure you give them a watch for help with your written work this week.

Todays tasks -

1) Read Theory x 2

2) Times tables rockstars

3) LBQ code - apu

Maths -  moving onto looking at line graphs. Line graphs show changes over time. The video below should give you some background on this before starting.

 English - (determiners) We looked at these back in January. There are lots of types of determiners however in general a determiner is a short word which comes before a noun to give it context - simply, it can tell us how many there are. The start of this video should explain it, it is the same video we used parts of earlier in the year. You don't need to know about all of the different types of determiners just yet - you just need to be able to identify them. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wdv59REiNZQ

4) Writing task - Planning your balanced argument

If you have not done the previous days task, I would suggest watching my videos on yesterdays blogs and complete them first before planning. For this lesson, I have attached an example planning sheet on the task on SeeSaw (you do not need to use this one but it is an idea). I would break my planning down into - Intro, arguments for, arguments against, conclusion. It should be as straightforward as placing your for and against points you created yesterday and organising them into your plan. You might need to think about how you can expand and discuss further about some of the larger points.

5) Topic web homework - Choose an activity from the topic webs and upload to SeeSaw.
