The world according to Humphrey. Chapter 4.

Today we read that Humphrey was taken home by the headteacher of Longfellow school, Mr. Morales. This happened because some of the other teachers had suggested taking Humphrey but made an excuse not to. Mr Morales stepped in saying that he had always wanted a hamster. However the most important man in the school wasn't the most important man in his house. His two children didn't listen to him when he told them to be careful with Humphrey and his wife didn't seem too happy when he brought Humphrey home.

Humphrey though had a plan!

Make your sentences better.

This is a good programme. You start with a very simple sentence. Before you click anywhere, think how you could up-level it (make it more complex). Then click on a part of the sentence and watch it become more and more interesting.

Can you write any sentences like that?

Our Lent Promises

This year during Lent 3B will try to

  • To say one Hail Mary at the start and end of each day.
  • To raise money to support the school's charities
  • Try to eat more healthily.

In class we will think of our own promises which will make Lent a holy time of the year.

Every Lent we raise money for a number of charities. These are

  1. CAFOD
  2. Alton Castle Residential Centre
  3. Good Shepherd Appeal for Father Hudson's Homes.
  4. Marie Curie Cancer Care
  5. St Anthony's Orphanage in South Africa
  6. Birmingham Catholic Partnership appeal for schools and communities in Rwanda.

Maths is fun

This is a great site which allows you to practice all of the various different parts of maths. I would recommend you looking at the addition, subtraction, multiplication and division parts of the number section. It is good revision for you.
