    If an alien visited Earth for the day, what would you do with him?

    Think about:

    Where would you take them?

    What would you do together?

    How would you talk to them?

    How you you show and/or tell your audience how you are feeling? 

     

    Check:

    Capital letters and full stops

    Do your sentences make sense?

    Have you described what the alien looks like?

    Have you included any direct speech? If so, is it well punctuated?

    Mr M has made some patterns with dominoes. 

    What two dominoes would you put down in each row to complete these patterns? 

    Can you create any patterns of your own?  You could use domines or any other objects of your choice. If you create any patterns, please send them into us: dailychallenge@st-barnabas.kent.sch.uk

    If you are looking for an extra challenge, have a go at filling in the missing dominoes in these patterns.

  • Ruben's Thursday Challenge

    Published 18/06/20, by Charlie Mackinnon

    Ruben was inspired by the video about light being the fastest thing in the universe so he started looking up the speed of other fast things and comparing them. He found that light was definitely the fastest. Then he decided to make an experiment to see how a magnifying glass affects light. Ruben thought that the magnifying glass might make the light stronger and hotter, so he tried to use it to melt an ice cube.
