Ben Ainslie

Ben was born on 5th February 1977 in Macclesfield. His full name is Sir Charles Benedict Ainslie. Ben is an English competitive sailor. He is one of the most successful sailors in Olympic history. He has won 5 Olympic medals, five of which are gold medals and is the most successful Olympic sailor of all time!

Ben’s Mum and Dad are called Roderick and Sue Ainslie. Roderick was also a fantastic sailor and captained boats in races. Ben has an older sister called Fleur. Ben grew up in Cheshire where he attended school and he then moved to Truro in Cornwall to complete his school career. He went to college in Winchester. Ben now lives in Lymington, Hampshire with his wife Georgie his daughter Bellatrix.

Ainslie learned to sail in Cornwall. He started sailing at the age of eight and took part in his first competition aged ten. His entered his first international competition in Japan when he was only twelve years old. It could be said that this is where his drive to compete and win came from.

Ainslie won silver at the 1996 Olympic Games and gold in the 2000 Summer Olympics in the Laser class. A laser is a small, sailing dinghy.

In 2004 he won gold sailing in the Finn class which is a larger boat. He then won gold again in this class in 2008 and 2012! You can visit his gold medal winning dinghies in the National Maritime Museum in Cornwall. There are also two gold post-boxes in tribute to Ben’s gold medal in the 2012 London Olympics, one in Cornwall and one in Lymington.

Bramley Church of England PrimaryOn 19 May 2012, Ainslie became the first person to carry the Olympic torch in the UK. Starting the 70-day tour of the United Kingdom at Land's End, he was the first of 8,000 torch carriers. He was selected on 11 August 2012 to carry the flag for the Great Britain team at the London 2012 Olympics closing ceremony.

Jane Austen

Jane Austen was born in the Hampshire village of Steventon on December 16th, 1775. She is famous English writer who published four novels during her lifetime: Sense and Sensibility (1811), Pride and Prejudice (1813), Mansfield Park (1814), and Emma (1815). Two of her books; Persuasion and Northanger Abbey, were published after her death in 1817. All of her novels have become timeless classics and have remained critical and popular successes two centuries after her death.

Jane was the second daughter and seventh child in a family of eight—six boys and two girls. Her closest companion throughout her life was her elder sister, Cassandra; neither Jane nor Cassandra married.

In 1802 it seems likely that Jane agreed to marry Harris Bigg-Wither, the 21-year-old heir of a Hampshire family, but the next morning changed her mind. There are also a number of stories connecting her with someone with whom she fell in love but who died very soon after. Unfortunately, there is little evidence to prove a connection with either of the two men. Cassandra (Jane’s sister) destroyed as many of the letters Jane had written and received to protect her sister’s private life after her death.

Jane disliked how women were portrayed in novels at the time and wished to write stories that presented them in a positive light. Her family, friends and the people she met in local towns and on visits to Bath and London, provided her with inspirations for characters and settings in her novels.

The earliest of her novels published during her lifetime, Sense and Sensibility, was begun about 1795. Between October 1796 and August 1797, Austen completed the first version of Pride and Prejudice. In 1797, her father wrote to offer it to a London publisher for publication, but the offer was declined. Unfortunately, it was deemed unladylike to pursue a career in writing so Jane found it difficult to get her books published.

Bramley Church of England PrimaryEventually, in November 1811, a man called Thomas Egerton agreed to publish Sense and Sensibility, although it was published anonymously, meaning that Jane got no recognition for all of the hard work she had put into writing her novel.

However, Jane did not stop writing. In 1811 she had begun Mansfield Park, which was finished in 1813 and published in 1814. By then she was an established (though anonymous) author; Egerton had also published Pride and Prejudice in January 1813. Between January 1814 and March 1815 she wrote Emma, which appeared in December 1815.

The years after 1811 seem to have been the most rewarding of her life. She had the satisfaction of seeing her work in print and well-reviewed and of knowing that the novels were widely read. They were so much enjoyed by the prince regent (later King George IV) that he had a set in each of his homes, and Emma, at a discreet royal command, was “respectfully dedicated” to him.

For the last 18 months of her life, despite her health declining, Austen was busy writing. Sadly, on July 18th 1817 she died and was buried in Winchester Cathedral. After her death, her authorship was announced to the world by her brother Henry, as he wished that his sister received the recognition she deserved for the amazing novels she had written. He also supervised the publication of Northanger Abbey and Persuasion, the last two books his sister had written.

There is also a video on Jane Austen’s life- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KwD-1rW254g

Isambard Kingdom Brunel

A great Victorian Engineer, probably best known for building a suspension bridge across Clifton Gorge in Bristol. However, he built many other exciting engineering projects, solving important problems of his time, pioneering innovative inventions that changed the world.

Florence Nightingale

Florence Nightingale was born in the city of Florence, in Italy. This is how she got her name. She was born on 12th May 1820. She had one older sister named Frances. Her family were British but were on holiday in Italy when she was born.

Florence’s family had lots of money because her dad was a successful banker. They had 2 houses (one in Hampshire and one in Derbyshire) and servants. Normally, girls did not go to school or learn subjects at home but Florence’s dad taught Florence and her sister about lots of subjects.

When Florence Nightingale became an adult, she became a nurse. She wanted to do this because she felt God was telling her to carry out important work to help those who were suffering. Her family did not want her to be a nurse because they did not think it was a nice job however Florence still decided this is what she wanted to do. Florence Nightingale studied to be a nurse in Germany.

In 1853, Florence Nightingale became a nurse in London. Later in that year, she went to be a nurse in the Crimean War. She helped many injured soldiers but also made sure the hospitals were clean. Florence worked so hard and worked all through the night to make sure the soldiers were OK, taking them things such as water and warm blankets. The soldiers were very thankful for her kindness.

When Florence Nightingale came back to England after the Crimean War, she did not want people to know who she was so called herself Mrs Smith.

Florence Nightingale showed that keeping a hospital clean and organised was very important and meant more patients survived. She wanted nurses to be trained properly so in 1860 she set up Nightingale Training School in London.

Bramley Church of England PrimaryIn 1883, Florence was given a Royal Red Cross by Queen Victoria for her hard work and service to nursing. Then in 1907 she as the first lady to be given the Order of Merit award by the queen.

Florence Nightingale died on 13th August 1910 in London.

Florence is still very important in nursing today. There is an International Red Cross award now called The Florence Nightingale Medal which is given to nurses for exceptional work. On the 12th May each year there is International Nurses Day, this is on Florence Nightingale’s birthday. There is also a statue of Florence Nightingale in London.

Bramley Church of England PrimaryTask 4 – Inspirational Person Biography

Biographical writing is about someone else’s life. It is about a real person but written by someone else. A biography highlights the key events that have happened in their life, sometimes talking about their childhood. A biography can be written about someone who is dead or alive.

Yesterday you read information and answered questions about your house figure head. Now that you are an expert on this person and know lots of information about them, you are going to write your very own biography using all of the knowledge you have!

David Attenborough – a Biography

David Attenborough, the Godfather of natural history TV, has introduced generations to the world’s furry and feathered friends. Beyond natural history he’s had a huge influence as a broadcaster, introducing colour TV when he was Controller of BBC Two.

Born in London in 1926, Attenborough collected fossils as a child and gained a Natural Sciences degree from Cambridge. Since the launch of his famous Zoo Quest series in 1954 to the recent Planet Earth, he has surveyed almost every aspect of life on earth.

Why is he so well known?

Whether he’s chilling with chimps or freezing with polar bears, Attenborough always reassures with his signature dulcet tones. Many have tried – and most failed – to capture his hushed, reverential whisper, full of barely contained excitement. This unique voice has formed the soundtrack to millions of childhoods and TV dinners.

What has he achieved?

Attenborough’s trophy cabinet has recently acquired the prestigious Lifetime Achievement Award. In addition, he has been knighted, had species named after him and the Sir David Attenborough Studio is planned for London’s Natural History Museum in 2008.

With warmth and intelligence, Attenborough has brought the world to our doorstep. An estimated 500 million people worldwide watched Life On Earth. Long before environmental issues were making daily headlines, he was a fervent eco campaigner both on and off screen.

In His Own Words

"I just wish the world was twice as big and half of it was still unexplored."

Did you know?

Attenborough was initially discouraged from appearing on screen because his BBC boss thought his teeth were too big.

How he will be remembered

Attenborough will be remembered for the many achievements he has earned throughout his life, but more recently he has become a fervent campaigner for reducing the amount of plastic pollution in our oceans.

In his recent series, Blue Planet 2, he showed the world the extent of the pollution affecting our glorious planet and, after watching the programme, an astonishing 88% of people who saw it are said to have changed their behaviour, resulting in less plastic pollution.

Bill Oddie said, “David has affected the lives of people and wildlife for many years. With his amazing amount of knowledge, his achievement is to recommend life, wildlife and human life to the people of this earth.”

David Attenborough will be remembered for many things and if cleaning up our planet is one of them it could be said to be his greatest achievement ever.

Bramley Church of England PrimaryTask 5: Estimating and measuring length in cm, m and km

Using this table to get you started, go around your house finding objects that you first need to estimate the length of, and then measure accurately, using a tape measure or ruler.

What will you use to estimate?(Your fingernail is about 1cmwide).

1. Paper clip

2. Pencil or pen

3. Comb or brush

4. Teaspoon

5. Someone’s shoe

6. Front door or car key(Don’t lose it!)

B. Metres:

Now, what about longer objects? A metre is 100cm or 3X ruler length +10cm. Open out a tape measure and find something that is approximately 1m long, then measure it exactly and write the measurement in m and cm.

Name the object: A ………………………………………………............... is about 1m long. It measures ………………….m/ ………………………cm (if it is more, or less,- than 1m exactly).

Find something in or around your house, then estimate and measure it:

My ……………………………………………………………………………is about 2m long. It is exactly …………… m……………………cm

My…………………………………………………………………………… is about 3m long. It is exactly ……………m……………………cm

My…………………………………………………………………………… is about 5m long. It is exactly …………….m …………………..cm

C. Kilometres:

Next time you go out in the car, ask the driver to tell you when they have driven a kilometre from the start of the journey. (There should be a little button on the dashboard that sets the mile-ometer to zero. If it is in miles not km then they will need to tell you when it gets to 0.62 mile which is 1km). Talk about where you think it will be when they say ‘1km is from home to here’. Can you estimate another km further on? Shout ‘Here is 2km’ when you think the distance is up. See if you are correct or how close you got (2km are 1.24miles). Did you over-estimate (miss it) or under-estimate it (shout too soon)?

I discovered 1km from home is where the ……………………………………………………………………………………….is.

I could/could not estimate a km correctly.

Bramley Church of England PrimaryTask 7: My Auto Biography *Watch the Seesaw Lesson*

Yesterday you wrote about a famous person, but that could be you one day! Think about the skills and talents you shared – they may not be outstanding YET but did you know that if you spend two hours a day practising your special skill, in a few years (it takes on average 10,000 hours) you would be an expert! Besides, what you enjoy and what you are good at make you special and unique. This morning you are going to imagine you are famous and you are writing your own account of your early years and how you got to now.

Let’s look at an example of an Autobiography:

I am Malala by Malala YousafzaiThe story in her own words, of the youngest person to receive the Nobel Peace prize for her courage in speaking up in support of education for girls. (In her country some people do not want girls to go to school).

Introduction: (who she is)that grabs the attentionof the reader

Some interesting facts and likes and dislikes

Paragraphs tell different facts

What she does and describes herappearance

Her family and where shelives

A clue about what is important to her and her family’s values

Look out for these features: Written in the first person (I, me, my, mine) in present and past tense (sharing facts as a story about what

has happened but also what you feel/do/like now) Is usually in time order (Tells about parents, family, when and where you were born, where went to

nursery/pre-school, school, clubs and places you have lived) Shares things that are important to you (friends, pets, interests) Explains what makes you YOU (What your hopes and dreams are, what kind of person you are and want to

be, things that make you laugh or you want to make happen) Uses fronted adverbials and conjunctions to link and explain ideas (precise dates and events, when and

Can you find out five new things about the people you speak to? Does anything amaze you?

Ideas for questions:

What is your biggest achievement? What did you want to be when you were younger? What jobs have you had? Have you ever competed at anything? Have you ever lived in another place or country? What was it like there? Where were you born? When were you born? Do you have any brothers or sisters? What was your home like when you were a child? What was your school like? What toys did you have when you were a child and what games did you like to play? Have you ever had any pets? What modern invention makes you go WOW? What’s the most unusual thing to happen to you? What is your favourite memory?

Bramley Church of England PrimaryTask 11: Estimating and comparing volume and capacity

1. Draw an arrow to show where the bottle should 2. be on the number line.

3. 4.

5. 6.

Watch Video 1 about capacity and volume. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iyy-Y_JLbsE

Containers can be tricky – some may be tall and narrow, while some may be wide and shallow, so it is not always easy to tell if one holds more than another.

Watch video 2: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4wzIsTzSLe4

Using the method shown in the second video, set up an investigation to see which of several containers you have in the cupboard holds least or more. You should estimate which order you think they should be in, and then test out your idea by pouring them into a jug with a scale on the side. Start with 2 and a jug, then more containers.

Label them with a post-it note or scrap of paper and record your estimated order first, then your results. Pour carefully! What did you discover? Did any of the containers’ capacities surprise you?

What will your first step be?

Who will help you to complete your first step? What skills do you need to complete your first step? What do you need to learn? How will you know when you have completed your first step? What will you do after you have completed your first step?

Why is it my dream?

Everyone has a reason for why they want to be what they want to be, I became a teacher to help children achieve their own dreams. What are the reasons behind your dream? Use the questions to help you think about your dream

Why do you want to be the thing you want to be? What made you think of it? Who inspired you? Where were you when you first thought of it? When did you first know about your dream?

Writing about your dream
