Good Morning everybody and Happy Tuesday!

So we all now know what a perimeter is and how to measure the perimeter of a shape. If you don’t catch up watching this video at the end of this post… Today I would like you to work through this  ‘perimeter check list’.

If you do not have a ruler, then use an object you know its length or use an object and then create a unit of measure for it. e.g a book; the perimeter of the table was 21 book .

Perimeter Checklist

1. Draw 6 polygon shapes and measure their perimeter.
2. Make up and draw your own shape, then measure its perimeter.
3. Measure the perimeter of your table.
4. Measure the perimeter of your room.
5. Measure the perimeter of your favourite thing.
6. Measure the perimeter of the book you are reading.
7. Draw an outline of your feet, then measure its perimeter. How did you decide to do it?
8. Measure the perimeter of ………. (Surprise us)

Record your findings to a post, add pictures and videos if you can and send in your post by 3pm today. Get investigating and good luck!

Morning everyone!

I hope you got a chance to see my dog, Doug’s message to you all. (It’s underneath this post if you missed it yesterday.)

This morning I want you to use Pobble 365 but you do NOT have to extend the story or do anything imaginative at all apart from have a go at the questions.

Today I would like you to write another factfile, this time about bees.  Try and use sub-headings to put your facts into groups.  If you can copy and paste some images off the internet as well, even better.  

If you want to, later in the day you could invent a game with a bee theme and play it.  You could find a recipe that uses honey and write it out, or even cook it!  Maybe you can make up a rhyming poem about bees, or make a bee picture or model using junk.

Challenge:   Explain what these sayings mean:

‘The bees knees’

You’ve got a bee in your bonnet.

‘Make a bee line’

Have fun and make sure you are a busy bee!
