Good morning. I hope you have all had a lovely weekend. Mrs Gardener has shared with you the learning for this week thinking about VE Day. I will continue to post maths each day for those of you who want to keep this going. As always, there is no pressure. You know your child and what they need. It is a short week but enjoy all of the activities.

Monday 4th May

This week your learning and activities will all be about VE day, Victory in Europe, which takes place on Friday, a special 75th Anniversary.

What is VE Day?

VE Day, which stands for Victory of Europe Day, was the day on which allied forces announced the surrender of Germany in Europe on May 8th, 1945. It marked the end of Adolf Hitler’s reign and was a cause for celebration all over the world.

At 3pm that day, Prime Minister Winston Churchill told the nation that the war was over. In London, a crowd of 50,000 celebrated the momentous event in Piccadilly Circus, cheering and waving flags in the street. This year is particularly important, given that it’s the 75th anniversary of VE Day.

We will be learning about what VE day is, why it is celebrated and a bit about World War 2.

Mrs Atkinson and I have put together lots of fun activities for your week.

I have emailed you 2 Power points which help explain VE day in a child friendly way.

Reading task

I have emailed you a reading comprehension task to help you gain a better understanding of VE day.

Once you have read it, have a go at answering the questions!

I am so impressed with the fantastic work that you are all doing Class 1 and just as impressed with your mums and dads for all their hard work helping you! It is great to see how enthusiastic you all are and all the different ways you are finding to present your work. I love all the maths problem solving and your bean diaries are brilliant!

Can you write your own algorithm? It could be for anything eg growing a plant, making some buns, playing a game, making a toy from lego or walking to the park. Once you have written it, can you test it out? Did it work?

Have a go at 2Logo on Purple Mash. Can you draw a square by creating an algorithm? Waht else can you create?
