Good morning!
Here are today’s activities.
Today is Remembrance Day.
Look at the PowerPoint presentation to understand why it is important we celebrate this day. If you can, have a moment of silence at 11am to think about the sacrifice soldiers have made and what we can learn for the future.
In school, we would have created a poppy in class to display in our window. At home, using any materials you can, create a poppy. You could paint, draw, collage, or even make a poppy out of different materials and take a photo. Here are some colouring sheets if you would prefer to do one of these too:

Life was very different in many ways and the way we think and treat people has changed so much. Write a short paragraph (about 4-5 sentences) explaining what it would have been like being Katherine Johnson, a black woman, in the early 1900s.
What rules did people have to follow?
How would Katherine have felt at that time?
Do you think it was fair? Why?
Maths
Watch the video titled ‘Kilometres’. Then complete the worksheet.
