LO: To write an instruction text

Today, you need your notes from yesterday along with your exercise book and pen ready to write your instruction text. It is not difficult! Just follow the instructions on the powerpoint slides below. Don't forget to click on the Kenyan Safari text below which is a great example of an instruction text. You can steal some great ideas from it!

Maths Topic- Integers and Decimals

L.O Understanding other powers of 10 within 1 million.

We are starting a new topic this week in maths. It follows on from our lessons on decimals and instead of WHITE ROSE we are using OAK ACADEMY.

We will start by looking at our place value columns and learning how to divide them equally. If we know that 10 can be split into two 5’s, four 2.5’s or ten 1’s then we can use this knowledge to help us spilt 100, 1000, 10,000, 10,0000 etc.

Your teacher is Mrs Harris, and she will guide you through your lesson.

Picture 1 - God sends a message to Jonah. He tells him to go to Nineveh and tell the people to be good and follow God. 
Picture 2- Jonah didn’t want to go, so he jumped on a boat and went to sea. 
Picture 3 - God was angry with Jonah and sent a storm which was so bad that the captain thought the boat was going to sink. 
Picture 4- Jonah knew the storm was his fault so he told the captain to throw him over. They threw Jonah over, the storm stopped and then an enormous whale ate Jonah. 
Picture 5- Jonah was stuck inside the whales belly. He prayed to God and said he was sorry and he would go to Nineveh. After 3 days the whale vomited Jonah onto dry land. 
Picture 6 - Jonah went to Nineveh and told the people to be good and follow God. The people listened to Jonah and God was happy and didn’t destroy the city.
