Good Morning Woodpeckers.
What a lovely sunny morning it is too! 
Apologies that there was no blog written yesterday- it was my little Leo's 5th Birthday and we spent the day trying to make it as special as we could. He had a lovely day and the quality family time was the best present of all- although he would probably say it was his new bike 
.
So there were a few problems with the reading comprehension sheets for year 4- apologies and i have now attached them below for you to access and answer. Hope this helps.
Todays learning is on your front cover sheet (and a reminder below) and the answers for your maths and reading comprehensions are below for you to access once you have completed the tasks.

Y4 – Mount St Helens
- Writing - Letter to Florence Nightingale - using the sheet in your packs, imagine you are a soldier in the Crimean War and Florence Nightingale has treated you. Write a letter thanking her and what her help has meant to you. Remember the correct format for a letter and the key features such as an opening paragraph, writing in paragraphs, past tense, appropriate sign off.

Art - Create a piece of art to brighten up the walls of a hospital, in the style of Chris Haughton’s artwork at the Royal London Children’s Hospital. If yuo have a look online you will be able to see more examples of his artwork too.
Have a lovely day and remember to add any learning to the weekly discussion that I posted on Monday. I have already seen and replied to some of your comments and uploads this morning. In particular I would love to see some of your artwork.
If you want any additional learning the BBC Bitesize videos online that were added on by the site on Monday are really good and worth a look. Just go into your year group and there are videos and activities for a wide range of subjects.
Enjoy the sunshine and I will be ringing the Year 3's today so please do come to the phone too as I would love to talk to you. Take Care.
