Welcome to Friday!

Spellings: Rule 20: ‘ous’ or ‘ious’ suffixes

It’s test day. Watch the spelling test video on dojo to complete the spelling test.

Quick Write: Sick sentences

Look at the powerpoint below, to have a go at improving these sentences.

Hint: you could add adjectives to add detail (2A sentences), start the sentences with adverbs (fronted adverbials), start the sentences with an emotion, start the sentences with an ‘ing’ verb etc.

How many different improvements can you make?

English: Revolting Menus

Today is the day for you to produce your final version of your menu. You will need to have:

  • A name for your restaurant
  • At least 3 different starters, 3 different mains and 3 different desserts on your menu.
  • Each dish will need to have a name, and be followed by the description of each dish.
  • How much will each dish cost?
  • Also, think carefully about the presentation: how can you make your menu look eye-catching and appealing?

You could use the template below (menu template), or create your own. You may choose to complete your final version on a computer or writing it on paper. Upload your final version to dojo…Can you put your teacher off her food?

School Learners: D&T/Art/History:

Look at the information about Celtic roundhouses below, to explore what homes were like in Britain before the Romans. Can you design and make a 3D model of a Celtic roundhouse? Think creatively…can you re-use materials you would otherwise throw away?

Home Learners: Design technology: Foodie Friday!!!

My favourite day of the week, with my favourite task of the week! Get creative in the kitchen! Knock up a snack, as sweet treat, a healthy meal...whatever you fancy. Can you try to make something that involves careful measuring of ingredients (e.g. weighing/ capacity of liquids). Can’t wait to see some of your fabulous creations. Channel your inner chef/ bake-off contestant… (Extra bonus points may be awarded if you clean up after you too!)
