Daily News
So, after a week of hard battling, the results are in:
An admirable 2nd place and over 30,000 questions answered during the week. Well done to everyone who took part and special congratulations to Abi, Zoe and Sam, our top 3 scorers.
World Book Week
In the second week after half term we will be celebrating World Book Day on Thursday 4th March. For the whole of that week, Scholastic are running a series of events. I posted about this on the Dojo Class Story earlier this week. There are some great workshops planned – I have signed up for several myself. If you have not registered yet, I recommend you do so soon as I believe there are limited places and if you don’t sign up now you may miss out.
Full details can be seen in the Class Story. But if you visit https://tinyurl.com/9p4b9gp3 you can book your place there – you will need to provide an email address and use the code ‘clubsandfairs‘.

Then work through the questions in this sheet and submit to ClassDojo:
Independent Learning Week
As we approach the end of the week, this is your penultimate session to work through your independent learning tasks (although if you would like a bit of time to finish off, I am happy for you to run into the half term break if you would like to).
When you are ready, please start to send your work into ClassDojo so I can enjoy seeing what you have been busy with this week – some great examples have started to come in already.
Reading
I would like you to read for at least 30 minutes each day. You can get more ideas and suggestions of reading material from the Reading@Home section above.
Geography
Today we arrive at our fourth lesson exploring Brazil through a range of geographical skills. Follow the link below for the lesson’s resources:
Family Challenge
This is not easy, but once you understand the grid, this is an achievable challenge. Basically in the top row of the grid there will be 1A, 2Bs and 2Cs (but no Ds).
