Alfie's Tuesday Maths

 

Hi Alfie, 

Here is your maths for the day: 

Today you are going to be looking at volume. Volume is capacity (which means) how much is contained in a 3D shape. Volume is measured in cm3 rather than cm2 for 2D shapes. 

There is a video to watch 

Here is the worksheet

The answers are answers

There are some further challenges if you need them.

History 

Normally, we would carry on with Geography this half term. However, a lot of the half term is focused around visiting a local river....because we're in lockdown so we can't do that just now. So instead, we're going to look at our history topic! We are going to be looking at an important time in British history - World War 2. 

Today we are going to be looking at the outbreak of World War 2. 

Read the information on this PowerPoint. Listen to the recording of the then Prime Minister, Neville Chamberlian announcing to the country that we are at war. Consider the questions on the slide. 

Next, I would like for you to read this information about the early war. Using it, complete this timeline of the events of the early days of World War II. If you can't print the sheets off, draw a timeline in your book! 

Finally, using the information on the slides and in the reading, have a look at this map. Can you colour in the countries that were classed as the Allies and those classed as the Axis of Power? Who was neutral? 

WALT: Know the early events of World War II
