Virtual School Tour on Wednesday! No written work this week. Click:
If you have your Earthlink at home with you, this week we are reading the chapter about the French Revolution page 66. If you don't have it I have scanned the pages here so you can read them.
Before the Revolution the people of France were divided into three categories according to how wealthy they were. The poorest people had the hardest time and they were the biggest group of people. They decided life wasn't fair so they started a revolution and the King was executed. France became a republic and new leader was a very famous man called Napolean Bonoparte.
Divide your copy page into 6 boxes (or as many as you like) so it looks like a comic strip. Do a summary comic strip story of the French Revolution, draw some pictures in the boxes and write a sentence or two for each box.
If you have Earthlink at home we are reading the chapter called Eco-Holiday on page 150 this week. If not, I have uploaded the pages here so you can read them here. It is about Australia and the Great Barrier Reef and the endangered fish, coral and sea turtles who live there.
When you have finished reading you can do the exercises into your copy on page 151.
This week we are looking at maps in Geography. If you have Earthlink it's on page 116. Otherwise, open up this pdf and study the map of the work. It has lots of the World's biggest cities marked on it.
Can you tell which continent each city is on? I hope so because we just learned about the continents of the world!
Link with maths: at the end of the page you can use you long division skills or use a calculator to calculate population densities.
