Well done to those of you who completed this week's tasks and sent me your spelling test results. Eddie has taken up the Duolingo challenge and already beaten my record by earning 470XP yesterday! Go Eddie!

Don't forget to send me your Easter holiday photo collages - they're really easy and fun to make...

Have a lovely weekend.

Maths - please complete page 54-56 of the booklet you took home: Solving Number Problems. I hope the Scouts in question 11 have a more successful camping trip that I did last week when we were rudely awoken in the middle of the night by a stolen van crashing in to the electricity pylon outside our garden!

English -

1. If you haven't yet done it, please complete the Wordy Wednesday practise for week 4 spellings and do your spelling test.

2. Read pages 6-17 of Rainforest Calling.

3. Find the correct spelling for "hippipotamoose" and "eggsajerate" (page 7)

4. Draw and label a pootoo

5. Design your own curious creature that might live in a rainforest.

French - Beat the teacher! Use Duolingo to brush up on your skills. I have been using it almost every day to brush up on the Russian I learned at university. Yesterday I scored 254XP, but my record for one day was on Monday when I scored 400XP! How many XP can you earn in a day? Can you beat your teacher? Let me know how you got on...
