Monday 22nd February
Welcome back Antelopes, we hope you had a great half term!
In this presentation, you will find your maths, English, reading and topic
lessons for today. Please spend 30-40 minutes on each lesson. Have a
great day of learning.
Maths- This week, we are re-capping our place value
skills. Have a think about what this means.
Place value Place value is the value of each digit in a number. For example, the 5 in 350 represents 5 tens, or 50; however, the 5 in 5,006 represents 5 thousands, or 5,000
Maths- To recognise the value of digits and order and compare
numbers.
This lesson will be taught on teams at 9am. You will need a pencil and a piece of paper.
Complete either challenge A or B. Try to
challenge yourself. If you start on A you
might want to move on and try some of
B. Challenge B also includes some
decimals. We will be learning more
about decimals in a couple of weeks
but have a try.

Handwriting challenge Your challenge is to write a sentence about your half term in only 5 words. There has to be one interesting adjective and one interesting adverb in your 5 words. For example- I skilfully flipped delicious pancakes. Please then write this sentence ten times in your neatest, cursive handwriting.
English- Using adverbs This lesson will be taught on teams at for cohesion (cause and 11.30am. You will need: a pen and a piece of contrast). paper to write your sentences on.
Read the explanation of how the virtual assistant, Alexa, works,
which is on the next slide.
Re-write/edit the sentences, adding adverbs to link the two
sentences on each line. Remember to punctuate these with a
comma.
Task- Challenge 1
For example
At the top and bottom of the escalator, the steps collapse on
each other, creating a flat platform. This makes it easier to get
on and off the escalator.
Becomes….
At the top and bottom of the escalator, the steps collapse on
each other, creating a flat platform. Consequently, this makes it
easier to get on and off the escalator.
There is a comma help page and adverb word bank below.How Alexa works
1. Amazon have built a natural-language processing system that is easy to interact with. It can be used by the
whole family.
2. It uses a wake word: “Alexa,”. This can be changed to “Echo,” “Amazon,” or “Computer.”
3. Once the wake word is said, the microphone is switched on. It transmits what is said to cloud computers for
quick analysis.
4. Users ask questions which are then processed by the computers. The Echo will answer the question in a female
voice.
5. The Echo does not only answer questions. It can play music, tell jokes and provide an alarm.
6. The Echo can be linked to other devices. It can be used to switch on lights, control the heating and even lock the
front door.Read the explanation of how the virtual assistant, Alexa, works, which is on the previous slide.
Re-write/edit the sentences, adding adverbs to link the two sentences on each line. Please write 2 or three
sentences for each one and find different places to add an adverb in the same pair of sentences like the example
Task- Challenge 2
below.
Remember to punctuate these with a comma and think about where the commas should go each time.
For example
• Amazon built a natural-language processing system that is easy to interact with. It can, therefore, be used by the
whole family.
or
• Amazon built a natural-language processing system that is easy to interact with. It can be used by the whole
family therefore.
or
• Amazon built a natural-language processing system that is easy to interact with. Therefore, it can be used by the
whole family.
There is a comma help page and adverb word bank below.If the adverb is at the start of the sentence, it
needs a comma after it.
Example- However, I never give out personal
details, like my name.
Remember If the adverb is in the middle of the sentence, it
the rules for is separated by a pair of commas.
Example- My sister, meanwhile, prefers
your building games.

If the adverb is at the end, it does not usually
need a comma.

Geography- To understand what a coastline is and to learn about coastal features.
Think about these questions and jot down some of your thoughts. • What is a coast? • What do they look like? What image do you get in your head when you think of the coast? • Have you ever been to the coast? • What can you do at the coast? • Does the coast look the same everywhere?
What is a coast? The coast, also known as the coastline or seashore, is defined as the area where land meets the sea or ocean, or as a line that forms the boundary between the land and the ocean. The length of the UK coastline is around 12,429 km or 7,723 miles and is very varied.
Below is a diagram of a coastline with different features. Have a go at labelling the features. See if there
is any you know already before we learn about them in today’s lesson.Coastline features -answers
Now we are going to learn about the different features and how they are formed. The photos will be from the UK.
Coasts are always changing Coasts are made up of cliffs or beaches, or they might be built on to make costal villages, towns and harbours. Waves in the sea, the current of the sea and the weather all has an effect on making the coastline like it is. They cause erosion and weathering.
Erosion and weathering Erosion- is a process where the rock or soil is worn away by natural forces such as wind or water. We have already learnt about erosion in rivers causing meanders, oxbow lakes and waterfalls. Now we will look at how it affects the coastline. Weathering- is the breaking down or dissolving of rocks and minerals by rainwater or extreme temperature. For example- After really cold weather or snow the roads have more potholes. This is because water gets into cracks. The water then freezes when it is really cold and expands causing the crack to widen.
Bay and Headland Man of War Bay- Dorset Portheras Cove Beach- Cornwall
The headlands then shelter the bay which means it is protected from further erosion. This means the sea is calmer and deposition happens (the dropping of sediment or sand) which causes beaches to form.
Please watch the
video below for
further explanation
on how Bays and
Headlands are
formed.
Bays and Headlands:
Landforms of Coastal Erosion –
YouTubeBeaches Porthcurno- Cornwall Bantham Beach- South Devon
Sand forms when rocks break down from weathering and eroding but it takes time for the rocks to decompose and create the sand that you will be thinking of. Different beaches can show us the different stages of erosion as the rocks and shells break down over the hundreds, thousands and even millions of years. Have a look on the next slide to see different types of beaches in the UK where the rocks are at different stages of erosion.
Wind along the coast can blow sand inland, which, if obstructed, can then form piles of sand called dunes.
Tomorrow we will look at caves, arches, stacks and stumps
Task-Challenge 1 Create a comic strip, on the sheet on the next slide, to explain how headlands and bays are formed. You need to put the captions below in the correct order and draw diagrams to match. Then, label your diagrams with words you have learnt in today’s lesson. Look back if you need help to remember.
Challenge B- Create a comic strip, on the sheet on the next slide, to explain bays and headlands are formed. Use the keywords here to help you. Then, label your diagrams with key words, you can look back at the slides if you need a reminder but try not to use the sentences in challenge A.
