Good morning everyone! I hope you had a good weekend and didn’t get sunburned (unlike me).
There’s lots to look forward to in our online classrooms this week so make sure you log on each day and see what there is to do. This week we are going to look at the next Tudor Tales book, Measures in Maths and begin to look at Tudor Music. There’s lots of fun to be had!
I hope you all have a great day.
Stay safe and take care!
Here is this week’s Feel Good Friday! Thank you to all those who have took part! We are missing you all!
Calling all budding artists! J.K. Rowling is inviting you to help illustrate The Ickabog for her. Every day when chapters of the story are uploaded, she will be making suggestions for what you might like to draw or paint to illustrate the story as it goes along. You should let your imagination run wild!
The best bit is, if you are between seven and twelve years old, your parent or guardian on your behalf can enter your drawings or paintings into the official competition being run by J.K. Rowling’s publishers, for a once in a lifetime chance to be featured in The Ickabog book, which is published in November. The competition is now open in the UK!
Details about how to enter, the prize and the terms and conditions are all on the website link below.

Our school challenge next week is to recreate a famous portrait. Use your imagination and get creative. Involve your family members if you want, but pick your picture, strike a pose and get snapping!

Have a look at the website for some brilliant examples!
Email a copy of the original portrait and your new version to me: [email protected] or to Miss Blackham: [email protected] by Thursday 28th May

This week we will be having a competition to see who can build the best Tudor House. Yesterday you found out about traditional Tudor Homes and today in our Expedition lesson, we are asking you plan, build and critique your own Tudor House.
You can build it out of anything you want, the choice is yours! You can use old cardboard boxes, Lego, whatever you have available will be perfect.
There are prizes to be won so make sure you email a photo of your Tudor House to your class teacher by Friday 22nd May and Mrs Ogle will then choose a winner from each class.
Good luck everybody, we can’t wait to see what you create!
