Good morning everyone. Hope you are all well and ready to learn some exciting things!

English:

Task 1 – To make a prediction.
Read to ‘The iceberg floated out father and father until they could no longer see land.’
What do you think is going to happen next?
How will they get home?
Will anybody help them?
Will Gaspar and Rossi help each other?

Your task is to make a prediction using what you already know about the story and the
characters. In your sentences make sure you use conjunctions (e.g. because, so, as) so that
you can give reasons for your prediction.

Geography:

This week in Geography, we are looking at aerial views. Aerial views are photographs taken from above using a satellite. We have been looking at google earth to identify the continents and have been looking at what else we can see in these images such as mountains, roads and coastline.  Look at these photos, what can you see? Use the word bank to help you. Do you think the picture is taken of the city? or the countryside? Can you sort the features into physical (natural, ie cliffs, trees) or human (man-made, bridges houses).

Don’t forget to send photographs of any completed activities to [email protected]
