English The Day the Crayon’s Quit

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hrd-Wdxbg-QAfter listening to the video, it was clear that the crayon’s were fed up and eventually they quit. Chose to do some of the following tasks:

Write a new letter from one of the crayons to Duncan. Write a new story about everyday objects that decide to quit in your house – I'd love to read this! Design a new home to help the crayons relax after a busy day of work. Create your own colouring pages that others can colour using crayons that haven't quit. Draw pictures of objects using very unusual colours (e.g.a blue strawberry, a green dog). Use paint (or other art materials) to create many different shades of the same colour. Create a poster that teaches other children about primary, secondary and tertiary colours. Can you create your own colour wheel? Design a new wrapper for the peach crayon!

SPaG – Co-ordinating ClausesFOR AND BUT OR YET SO

Could you write a sentence using each of the co-ordinating conjunctions? Challenge – try to begin your sentence in an exciting way too!

Example:Mrs Edge thinks about seeing Year 5 and 6 but knows she has to stay at home.

Everyday, Mrs Edge thinks about seeing Year 5 and 6 but knows she has to stay at home.

CreativeThis week, I would like to concentrate on making somebody else’s day special. This week I made home-made fudge and left it on people’s doorsteps, who were close by.

Could you do something for somebody and let me know what you’ve done? Try to make fudge like me! It’s really easy! All you need is 300g chocolate and 1 tin of condensed milk! You melt the chocolate and mix in the condensed milk and leave it to set for 4 hours! Mrs Edge added chopped up Mars Bars and Biscoff biscuits to make my fudge taste even nicer! Could you add something different?Make somebody else’s day by:Cooking something nice – this week Fudge is my challenge!Making a card for themWriting down 10 reasons why they are specialHelping them with a task
