Santa's House Estate Agent - Persuasive Writing.
There is a great virtual tour of Santa's House, including the elves cottages on Zillow (press the name to follow the link). I thought this would be a brilliant opportunity to do some persuasive writing in an estate agent style. I have included a planning sheet and a mock up of an Estate Agent site which are both fully editable.

Harry Potter Summer Holiday Homework (Editable). Doodle Maths Summer Challenge.
| harrypottermagicmoments.pub |
Harry Potter is our next topic so I created this summer homework grid, hopefully it will help stop that summer slide a little. Something that definitely will is the 'Doodle Maths' summer challenge. Doodle maths is a free app which we use in school https://www.doodlemaths.com/ the children log on and it adjusts the level of questioning on how well the children are doing. It really is worth downloading and ahving a look. Have a great summer.

Bristol Balloon Fiesta Maths.
I was alerted to this video by Mr Drew on Twitter. It shows in stop motion hot air balloons being inflated ready for flight. The video has no sound which makes it even better. Some of the things you could do are:
Predictions: Which balloon do you think will inflate first / second/ third
Will the first balloon inflated also be the first to take off?
Ordering: Which balloon inflated first/second/third/fourth and so on.
Shape, pattern and symmetry: What shapes can you see? are any of the balloons symmetrical? Can you see any patterns to the balloon designs?
Sorting: Using the picture below can you sort the balloons into different categories.
Counting: Count the balloons as they take off.
Cross Curricular Links: In Literacy you could write a story of being on a balloon and the journey that you take. Poetry to describe your journey, how it feels and what you see.
Geography: Draw a birds eye view from your balloon.
D and T: Design a hot air balloon.
Science: How do the hot air balloons float? Design and make your own balloon, can you make it fly?
Music: Create music to go with this film clip.
