We are going to start our new English unit today - 'Wonderful Wizards'. It is a persuasion text that is designed to persuade the reader to think or act in a particular way. 

• To get you warmed up for the wonderful world of wizardry watch this short video clip from Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone.
• Now, watch this short lesson video that will introduce our unit and today's activities.
• Design a 'Top Wizard' Top Trump card (template) - remember think about: What you would look like? What would you wear? What special powers would you have? 
• Finally, complete this Never-heard-the-word grid. This activity will bring to the front of your mind vocabulary you may have heard before but have forgotten about, and key vocabulary that we will meet in this unit.

Computing

Today, we are continuing our computing unit looking at keeping safe whilst using the internet. In this unit, we are going to focus on understanding the choices we have when using technology and how we can ensure that the content we find is safe and true. 

• Have a look at this PowerPoint about false photography. 
• Now, using the knowledge you have learned, have a go at editing an image of your choice - here are some possible types of edits that you may wish to make.

Here's my go using my phone (a tablet or laptop would be great to use as well): 

                                                                 Before                                                      

                                         

                                                                  After

                                       

P.E

As always, if you would prefer to exercise by going for a walk or jumping on your trampoline then that's great!

If, however, you would like to perfect 'throwing with a push action' then take a look at this lesson from Oak Academy.
