Reading Times Tables WebsitesKatherine Rundell has compiled ‘A book of hope’ which features poems and short stories from a range of different authors. Why not have a read?https://literacytrust.org.uk/family-zone/9-12/book-hopes/

Keep practising those tricky times tables- lots of practise on TTRockstars and NumBots ( same log in as TTRS)

Why not make your own Times tables web. Write the timetable in the middle (e.g x7) and write as many calculation/ facts as you can about it around the edge.

https://www.natgeokids.com/uk/discover/geography/countries/country-fact-file-brazil/Why not learn a little more about Brazil, where a huge proportion of the Amazon is? There are also lots of other fun activities and interesting facts on this website!

Please continue to practise your handwriting and spellings this week.

Neat, joined letters with spaces between words.

Perhaps practise spellings by writing them in different colours or in pyramids like we do at school sometimes.

Task 1: David Attenborough Fact File

1. Read the fact file about David Attenborough below, highlighting any key information as you read.

2. Answer the questions on the next page.

David Attenborough

2

Name: David Frederick Attenborough

Birthday: 8 May, 1926

Fun Facts:

David doesn’t consider himself as an animal lover!

He has won BAFTAs for his wildlife documentaries!

By the age of 7, David already had a ‘museum’ of birds eggs and ancient fossils.

At 11 years old, he sold newts to a university for 3p each so they could use them for teaching!

He HATES rats!

What has he done for the natural world?

In 1952, David joined the BBC as a trainee and one of the first programmes he worked on was called ‘Zoo Quest.’ This programme had parts filmed in the studio as well as on location (in different animal’s habitats.) It showed people all around the world, animals like chimpanzees, pythons and birds of paradise – something lots of people had never seen before! Because many people couldn’t afford to travel far at this time, it meant people could learn more about animals that they had never had the chance to see in real life before. This sparked the nation’s interest in looking after and caring for exotic animals!

In 1957, David went trekking through some of the most remote places in the world and filmed a documentary about different tribes that lived there. David immediately immersed himself in their cultures, taking part in dances and creating food with the locals. This was shown on BBC television and thousands of people saw for the first time, that people called places like the Amazon their home. This made them want to protect it even more so that the tribes could continue their lives there. In showing us ways of life so different from our own, Sir David helped us understand both the diversity and universality of the human experience.

In the 1970’s David helped create a show called ‘Life on Earth’. Stunning photography and innovative camera techniques were used to show animals in their natural habitats. It’s estimated that 500 million people watched the series worldwide.

Without the ambition and persistence of Attenborough and his collaborators, millions of us may never have seen some of the world's rarest creatures. It's been a constant theme throughout his career, beginning with Zoo Quest in the 1950s, when he famously caught the elusive Komodo Dragon on film for the first time. But in 2001, we were given an insight into a strange new world, when Attenborough narrated The Blue Planet. The series introduced millions to the wonders of the deep sea and was the first time some species, including the hairy angler fish and the Dumbo octopus, were captured on film.

Sir David has always said he didn't start making programmes with conservation in mind - he simply enjoyed observing the natural world. But as time passed, he became aware that the animals and habitats he was filming were under threat. He's taken part in documentaries which tackle environmental issues but prefers a subtler approach, showcasing the natural world in the hope we might be inspired to preserve it. Counting President Obama among his biggest admirers, Sir David has done more than almost any other person to help millions of us understand and appreciate the wonders of the world around us. Most notably, David began the ‘no plastic in our oceans’ movement which has seen such a huge following in the past year. After Blue Planet showed how many plastic straws and bottles were in the ocean, threatening the life of wildlife, a huge change began. This include massive companies, like McDonalds and Starbucks, completely changing the way they work and banning many plastic items.

Task 3: Comparing Islamic and Christian Creation Stories

1. Read through the Islamic and the Christian creation stories.2. Note down any similarities and differences you notice between the texts3. Answer the questions about comparing the two stories

Islamic creation story

In the time before time, God was. And when God wants to create something, all he needs to say is "Be", and it becomes.

So it was God that created the world and the heavens. He made all the creatures, which walk, swim, crawl and fly on the face of the earth. He made the angels, and the Sun, moon and the stars to dwell in the universe. And consider, as the Qur'an says, how God poured down the rain in torrents, and broke up the soil to bring forth the corn, the grapes and other vegetation; the olive and the palm, the fruit trees and the grass.

Then God ordered the angels to go to the earth, and to bring seven handfuls of soil, all of different colours, from which he could model man. God took the seven kinds of earth and moulded them into a model of a man. He breathed life and power into it, and it immediately sprang to life. And this first man was called Adam. God took Adam to live in Paradise. In Paradise, God created Eve, the first woman, from out of Adam's side. God taught Adam the names of all the creatures.

God placed the couple in a beautiful garden in Paradise, telling them that they could eat whatever they wanted except the fruit of on forbidden tree. But the evil one tempted them to disobey God, and eat the fruit. When God knew that Adam and Eve had disobeyed him, he threw them out of Paradise and sent them to Earth. But God is merciful. The Earth was created to give food, drink and shelter to the human race. The Sun, moon and stars give light. It is a good world, where everything has been created to serve people. And people, the Qur'an teaches, should serve God and obey his will. For those who submit to the will of God will be saved and taken to live forever in Paradise.

The Muslim creation story is found in the Qur'an. Muslims believe there is only one God who created everything. God's world is a good world, and when people obey or submit to God then life is good. Although God made humans superior to the rest of creation, Muslims believe that this means humans have been given everything on earth to care for and look after. The world is not ours to do with as we want.

Task 9: Deforestation Poster- How to Help

This half term we have been learning all about the Amazon Rainforest and the beautiful life within it. However, today we will be looking at the biggest danger the Amazon is currently facing - deforestation. Deforestation is the ‘destruction of trees of forests on a massive scale.’

1. Have a look at the pictures below to see the effects of deforestation in the Amazon Rainforest2. Why do you think deforestation is happening? Read the ‘causes of deforestation’ section below.3. Read about some of the methods of deforestation and the effects and consequences it has in the ‘effects of

deforestation’ grid and the ‘deforestation in the Amazon Rainforest’ poster.4. Note down in the box below HOW people could help stop deforestation (e.g using shampoo that doesn’t

contain palm oil therefore stopping demand). This website might help :https://www.theworldcounts.com/stories/Deforestation-Facts-for-Kids

5. Create a poster encouraging people to help stop deforestation - think about HOW and WHY they should help. Make it colourful and eye-catching.

6. When you have finished, upload it to seesaw for us to see!

13

HOW can people help stop deforestation?

- Make sure the shampoo they buy doesn’t contain palm oil

Effects of deforestation

1 In the past 40 years nearly 25% of the Amazon Rainforest in Brazil has been destroyed.

2 An area of rainforest the size of 20 football pitches Is being destroyed every 60 seconds.

3 50% of the tropical rainforests we had are now gone.

4 28,000 species of animal are expected to become extinct in the next 20 years.

5 By 2030, it is expected nearly half of the world’s plants, trees, animals, flowers and humans, who live in the rainforest are expected to be destroyed or severely threatened.

6 Local people’s homes are being destroyed

7 It is causing levels of carbon dioxide in the air to increase and levels of oxygen to decrease.

Causes of Deforestation1 To clear space for farming (soya bean

plantations and palm oil trees- which is used in lots of food and beauty products etc shampoo) and to graze cattle (for cheaper meat).

2 To use the hardwood timber (trees) for building purposes.

3 To build roads to allow vehicles to travel to new places and mine for metal ores.

4 To dig for oil, which brings in a lot of money.

5 To flood areas to make dams and generate electricity.

Task 10: The Trials of El Dorado

This week we will be looking again at Jaguar Trials by Ruth Eastham. In Jaguar Trials, Ben and his dad travel to the Amazon Rainforest, Brazil in search of El Dorado, a mythical lost city.

1. Read the information below (Section 1). Have you heard about this myth before? Consider what the most important information is in the passage.

2. Why do you think people like to tell stories about things like El Dorado?

________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

3. Look at the word class prompts on the next page to remind yourself about the different word classes.4. Find examples of each class of words in the El Dorado passage (section 1) and write them on the

classification table.5. In Jaguar Trials, Ben has to undergo a series of tasks to get to El Dorado (a little bit like the Tri-Wizard

Tournament in Harry Potter if you have read the book/seen the film!) Read about the three trails in Section 26. Imagine 3 tasks you think people should have to complete to get to El Dorado.7. Draw and write a few sentences about each task - you will need this for tomorrow!8. When you have finished, choose your favourite trial and upload it to seesaw.

Section 1

El Dorado

El Dorado (Spanish for "the gilded one") is a legend that began with the story of a South American tribal chief who covered himself with gold dust. In time, the name has come to be associated with a mythical city or land of gold. The legend of this magical city has caused many explorers to go in search of the mythical El Dorado but all have failed. It is said to be within South America but many have searched the continent, within the Amazon Rainforest and elsewhere and have found nothing. Amazingly, many stories and films still centre on this legend and give fictional accounts of its finding.

Trial 1: The Trial of the Hanging ShroudBen must climb a sheer cliff covered by a waterfall using no safety equipment. When he reaches the top he is able to climb through a small gap into a cavern, filled with bats. Ben finds a way to scare away the bats and as they all fly out, a small hole can be seen. Ben looks through it and sees a tiny box on a ledge inside but it’s a huge drop if he falls. His friends hold his legs whilst he dangles into the hole (above an endless abyss) and he collects the box. The box holds the clue to the next trial.

Trial 2: The Trial of the Sapphire StreakBen can see a small hole at the bottom of a deep pool of water. He dives in, holding his breath for a long time, and squeezes through the hole. Suddenly, a rock begins to slide across the hole he came in through, starting to trap him. He must act quickly. He grabs around to try and find the clue, and just as the hole is about to close, he finds something (the clue for the next trial), grabs it and just manages to get back through the hole, scraping his whole body against the sharp rock, which had tried to imprison him in the watery jail.

Trial 3: The Trial of the Howling HeightsBen and his friends come upon a row of geysers (vents in the earth’s surface that shoot out hot air and steam) and different coloured sections on the floor around them. They figure out that the gold sections of the floor will hold their weight but the red will not. The gold sections are very far apart and Ben doesn’t think he will be able to jump from one to another without landing on the red land. Luckily he sees there are vines above him which he can use to swing. He precisely times the geysers to see how often each one shoots out hot air and steam and uses this and his vine to get across the geysers without being burnt. When he and his friends manage to cross safely, they find the final path which leads them to El Dorado.
