Half-term homework
Your time to choose!
OPTION 1:
Next half term we will be learning all about Italy. Can you create a fact file or a leaflet which talks about all the most exciting and interesting parts of Italy?
You could think about the different landmarks, the food that Italians eat, the clothes they wear, the music they listen to, or even try learning some of their language! There are some great apps available to help you do this.
OPTION 2:
We have been creating sculptures using wire and clay this half term. Could you create a sculpture of a Roman soldier using a different type of material? You could recycle old materials from home such as bottles and cardboard to help create your sculpture. Don't forget to decorate it!
Things to think about: the size of your sculpture; the position your soldier is stood in; how you are going to add colour.
House points will be awarded for children that complete their homework.

Geography - Climate change
This week in Geography, we have identified ways that we can take action against climate change.
We have discussed different ways of taking action:
-
• Raising awareness: sharing learning about the human impact of climate change with others.• Campaigning: asking decision makers to do what they can to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and support communities to adapt to climate change.• Going green: individuals, schools and communities taking action to reduce their own emissions.• Fundraising: raising money for charities working against climate change.• Raising awareness: sharing learning about the human impact of climate change with others.• Campaigning: asking decision makers to do what they can to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and support communities to adapt to climate change.• Going green: individuals, schools and communities taking action to reduce their own emissions.• Fundraising: raising money for charities working against climate change.
We then planned out the steps to achieve one of these methods for taking action!
We would love it if you could further this at home and show us how you are doing your best to fight climate change. You may wish to take a photo and post it on twitter or write about what you have done on our class blog.

This week, we are looking at how some materials change when they are heated and cooled.
For your Science experiment we could like you to investigate what happens to chocolate when it is heated (on a hob, in a microwave, in the sun or in your hands).
- How does the state of the chocolate change?
- Why do you think this happens?
You may want to do some cooking with chocolate as part of your experiment (E.g. make cornflake cakes)
Further questions to investigate:
- Do some types of chocolate melt quicker than others?
- Do different types of chocolates melt a different temperatures?
We would love to hear about your experimenting at home. Why not tweet us a photo or write what you've found out on our class blog?

Create your designs at home and then tweet a picture so they can be judged by our School Council.
