Primary sources give you ‘eye witness’ information about things that happened in the past because they were actually there. Historians, or people who study the past, can use these sources to get an idea of what people saw, heard and thought long ago. Photography, videos and paintings can be primary sources because they are taken or made during an event.Below, you will see 4 photographs or paintings of Queen Victoria. Your task is to be the historian who will study and consider the stories behind them. You can record or discuss your thoughts. 1.Start by studying 2 pictures of Queen Victoria as a young then older woman

The Sneaglegator1 The sneaglegator is a rare form of animal that only hunts at night.2 Sneaglegators are easy to identify because they have similar features to snakes, eagles and alligators. They

are the size of a cat and covered in slimy scales and thick feathers. Adult sneaglegators are usually a dark green colour which enables them to hide among the trees and undergrowth of the rainforest. However, juveniles begin life with a bluish tinge to their scales and no feathers. As soon as they hatch, their colour begins to change and the feathers develop after they are about six months old.

3 Sneaglegators are found in most rainforests, especially in the canopy and a few have been found hiding among the undergrowth. They usually nest high up in the boughs of trees and, because they only hunt at night, are rarely seen by human eyes. While most rainforest animals have adapted to like the rain, sneaglegators do not. Rather than getting wet, the sneaglegators hide beneath large trees to try to keep their feathers dry.

4. Interestingly, sneaglegators do not need to drink water to survive, but gain all the moisture they need from their prey. These elusive creatures are meat eaters but have been known to snaffle the occasional banana.

5. While their wings are big and strong, they do not fly very far due to the fact that branches obstruct their wings. Instead you will find them hopping from branch to branch and using their wings to glide after their prey.

6. Sneaglegators only have one offspring at a time. They lay one egg in the nest and after one month it hatches. Just before it hatches, the father carries it around in his mouth to keep it safe. The parents look after their young for 1 year before it glides off to find its own place to live.

7. Very few humans have ever seen a sneaglegator and naturalists fear they may soon be hunted as trophies. To protect these mysterious creatures, all animal lovers should try to raise awareness of these animals. It would be a disaster if another rainforest creature became extinct.

Spelling RulesIf the ch sound comes after a short vowel, it is normally spelt tch.The tch spelling is never found at the beginning of a word.In most other words the ch sound is spelt ch.If the g comes before a consonant or the vowels e, i, or, y then it is normally j sound.When the j sound is followed by an a, o, or u, the word is normally spelt with a j.When the j sound comes after a short vowel sound, the word is normally spelt with dge.

Primary …. Weekly Home Learning Grid for School Closures W/B …..Below are lots of links to resources and activities, some of which you can download from Twinkl. Twinkl is available to parents for Home learning purposes for free by using this code: UKTWINKLHELPSIn this problem, you will be working on a famous mathematical puzzle called The Tower of Hanoi. There are three pegs, and on the first peg is a stack of discs of different sizes, arranged in order of descending size. The object of the game is to move all of the discs to another peg. However, only one disc can be moved at a time, and a disc cannot be placed on top of a smaller disc.

Click on a question below to get started:

Question A

What is the smallest number of moves needed to complete the Tower of Hanoi game with:i) One disc?ii) Two discs?iii) Three discs?iv) Four discs?

Do you notice anything interesting about the way the number of moves increases?Can you explain any patterns you find?

Question B

The Tower of Hanoi puzzle can be completed in 3 moves with two discs. Can you use this to work out how many moves would be needed with three discs?

The Tower of Hanoi puzzle can be completed in 15 moves with four discs. Can you use this to work out how many moves would be needed with five discs?

In general, can you describe a way of working out how many moves are needed when one extra disc is added?

https://nrich.maths.org/6690&part=



Final Challenge

Explain how you could work out the number of moves needed for the Tower of Hanoi puzzle with n discs.

Extension:There is a legend that a 64-disc version of the Tower of Hanoi is being played out in a temple, and when the final move is made, the world will come to an end. If one move is made each second, how long would it take to complete the game with 64 discs? Do we need to worry yet, if the first disc was moved at the very beginning of time?
