At last, we've reached the end of our home study period. We've all had lots of new experiences during this time, such as doing school work in your pyjamas! There have been positive things that have come from it, such as your ability to work independently at home. And you have all managed to use this blog well which shows your mastery of technology. Your parents have been fantastic, supporting you in your studies, although we are sure they will be more than a little relieved when you go back to school on Saturday. And as for us... Well, it's just not the same without you and we're looking forward to having you all back on Saturday!
As for our challenges... Lots of you tried to estimate Mr. Suter's height. Mrs. Williams has finally revealed that he is... 1m 84cms in his socks, so well done if you got close. Remember, an estimate is a sensible guess so give yourself a pat on the back if you were close.
How many of you have read the Hobbit by JRR Tolkien? If you had, you may remember Bilbo's riddles with Gollum under the Misty Mountains. The riddle "A box without hinges, key or lid..." comes from that passage of the story. Gollum had just as much trouble as some of you, but eventually realised that the answer was an egg.
A note from Mr. Gale for next week: Year 5 girls will be swimming on Sunday for 4 weeks. The arrangements for the swimming lessons will be that the girls are to come to school in their swimming costume under their PE kit and when it is their PE lesson they will come to the sports hall and drop of their school bag. They will then walk across to the pool.
Please make sure that you bring all your home study work back to school on Saturday.
That's it for our final blog for now - have a fantastic weekend, an early night on Friday, and we'll see you fresh and raring to go on Saturday morning!
