| English | Reading |
To read a range of poetry, discussing favourite words and phrases. To answer questions about what I have read. |
Look at the poem ‘ Walking on the High Wire’. Read through it and discuss it with an adult. Did you enjoy it? What words and phrases did you like? Why? When you have read it answer the comprehension questions. |
| Writing | To write about my own experiences. |
Hooray! You got the job that you applied for in the circus! 1.Draw a picture of you doing that job. 2. Write some sentences about how it feels to do your first performance. (Reread the ‘Walking on the High Wire’ poem, if you are stuck for ideas). Write it in the first person, as though you have done the performance. (“I was so scared when…”) Think about: How did you feel during the performance? What could you hear? What could you see? How did the performance go? Remember to include capital letters at the start of your sentences and a full stop, question mark or exclamation mark at the end. |

You’ve made it into the big top! Now you want something to eat and something to drink. Have a look at the price list and answer the questions. Pay close attention to how much money you have to spend, in some of the questions.Below you will see a snack bar price list. There are some questions below. There is no need to print anything unless you want to. On paper, you can write the question number – write out the calculation – work out and write the answer. The answers get a bit more tricky as you go along. Your challenge is to complete 1 to 6. Try 7 and 8 if you’re confident! |

Today we are going to practice the skills needed to be a tightrope walker. Using materials you have at home, create a tightrope (it can be on the floor but just make sure you don’t come off of it!) Use these pictures to help you come up with some ideas.
Challenge: Can you balance something on your head at the same time? Can you bend down to pick something off the ground? Can you balance on one leg? How many seconds can you do it for? |
