Do you remember PRONOUNS from your learning last week? A pronoun is a word that takes the place of a noun. There are five different types of pronouns. Can you remember their names? Work through the Pronouns – Questions (in Learning Resources). If you have log-in details for Lexia and Spellzone, spend 5 or 10 minutes working through them.

RE

Last week, you reflected on the Golden Rule.  This rule is important to lots of people who do and do not belong to religious groups. Many religions have rules which they believe were given to them by God. For example many Jews believe the rules in the Torah (their holy book) were given by God. Some of these rules are known as the Ten Commandments. You are going to watch videos about the ten Commandments (in Learning Resources), discuss them and finally rank them in order of importance.  Read the RE Lesson 2 to find out more. 

 

Story Time
