I did all of the Oak National lessons this morning.  In English I read the news report and the focus was on direct and indirect speech.  I had t identify which was whch in the report and then I had to rewrite some sentences.  In Maths I looked at a range of nets and had to say what 3D shape they made.

In Geography I learned about Curibita in Brazil and how it was transformed from an over populated and polluted city to one of the greenest. They pedestrianised streets and introduced special buses and stops.

I then did some English with mum.  I went over apostrophes and I also write down some things that I wanted to remind myself of in 6 months time.  Mum will keep this and then hand it back to me in 6 months time.  This made me appreciate what I had before lockdown like family and friends, school and dance.  I also gave myself some reminders of things to do.

I also did some extra work on time.  Mum gave me a train timetable and I had to answer the questions working out which train to catch and the times etc.  I also had to write the times on an analogue clock, on a 24hr clock and a 12 hour digital watch.  

I read the prologue and first chapter of a book called 'POG' by Padraig Kenny.  I answered some questions and we started to think about the characters and what had happened.  I enjoyed it so we went on Amazon and bought a copy so I could read the rest of the book.
