LO: To read coordinates in the

first quadrant.

When do we use coordinates in

everyday life? Think back on

the previous term’s geography

lesson. We used coordinates to

locate places.

Look at the PowerPoint

Presentation Café coordinates

(position and direction) on Twinkl

(use your Twinkl login to access)

to read coordinates.

Activity:

Complete worksheet attached on

reading coordinates. (Monday-

LO: To recognise features of limericks.

Last half term we learnt about Haiku

poems. This week, we will learn about a

new type of poems called limericks.

Click on the following link to find out

what a limerick is: https://www.bbc.co.uk/bitesize/topics/z4mmn39/articles/zw3yw6f

We can identify a limerick poem by

spotting the syllable patterns 8-8-5-5-

8 and rhyming patterns.

Have a go at reading the following

limericks and guess who they describe.

Look at the features carefully: https://www.bbc.co.uk/cbbc/quizzes/loathsome-limericks

Activity:

Read the attached poems and sort

them into 2 piles, limericks and non-

limericks.

Hint!!!

Use the features of limericks to help

you identify the limericks.

LO: To locate areas of similar environmental

regions, e.g. deserts.

When you think of deserts, what comes into

your mind?

I think of hot sun, sand, camels, snakes, cactus,

dry land etc.

Flash news!!! Did you know that Antarctica is a

desert?

Antarctica is considered a desert because it

receives little rain.

Did you notice the lines above and below the

Equator? Do you know what they are called?

They are the Tropic of Cancer and the Tropic

of Capricorn. These lines are like the Equator;

they do not exist in the physical world but are

drawn on maps to help identify areas and

climate zones.

The area between the lines is known as ‘The

Tropics’. The weather between the Tropics of

Cancer and Capricorn is hot all year round.

Monday- Maths worksheet

Monday- English (Sorting Poems)

A talkative man from Seattle

Spent all his days speaking to cattle.

When asked what he said,

one old cow shook her head,

and replied, “Why it’s nothing but prattle!”

The school trip was a special occasion

But we never reached our destination

Instead of the Zoo

I was locked in the loo

On an M62 Service Station

A bald headed man from Dundee

Lost his wig, in the wind, in a tree;

When he looked up and spied it,

A hen was inside it,

And it laid him an egg for his tea.

I slid across the kitchen floor,

And hopped around the cat!

Then expertly rolled over,

Jumped back up and grabbed my hat!

I got up late for school today,

And nearly missed the bus!

I hurried down the stairs,

Wolfed my toast, and caused a fuss!

There was an Old Man of Kilkenny,

Who never had more than a penny;

He spent all that money,

In onions and honey,

That silly Old Man of Kilkenny.

Pardon me, that was so rude,

It was not me, it was my food.

But then again it could be said,

It's the little person in my head.

Who sits up there all day long,

Burping out a silly song.

So pardon me, it's about to worsen,

Please pipe down you little person.

It's raining, it's boring,

I feel like exploring.

But I'm stuck here,

My face a sneer,

Just staring at the flooring!

It's thundering, it's lightning,

My misery is heightening.

There's nothing to do,

But sit here and stew,

As there's no sign it is brightening!

There was an Old Man of Quebec,

A beetle ran over his neck;

But he cried, 'With a needle,

I'll slay you, O beetle!'

That angry Old Man of Quebec.

There was an Old Man who supposed,

That the street door was partially closed;

But some very large rats,

Ate his coats and his hats,

While that useless old gentleman dozed.

There was an Old Man with a beard, There was an Old Man with a flute,

Who said, "It is just as I feared! --

Two Owls and a Hen,

Four Larks and a Wren,

Have all built their nests in my beard.”

A serpent ran into his boot;

But he played day and night,

Till the serpent took flight,

And avoided that man with a flute.

Drink your food and eat your drink!

Throw unused dishes in the sink!

Splash water on the kitchen floor!

Drop mucky spoons into their drawers!

Clean windows with a dirty rag!

Toss just-cooked food in dustbin bags!

I'm tidying to be a help,

So why does my mum wail and yelp?

I love every flavor.

Cookies & Cream.

English Toffee.

Chocolate Chip.

Rocky Road.

Even Strawberry and

Almond Fudge.

Mmmmmmm
