Reading

Here’s today’s chapter from Pax:

Daily Video

Here’s today’s animation:

and some questions to get you thinking:

1.) What two things make the lady want to get a new robot?
2.) What does the new robot do with the old one?
3.) Why does the lady like the new robot at first?
4.) What makes the lady want to get rid of the new robot?
5.) After the old robot is kicked out, what makes it come back?
6.) Which robot would you prefer and why?

Writing

Today’s writing task is to create a poster advertising one of the robots from today’s video (you can choose which one). Things to think about: what images you may want to include, what information you wish to include and the price. Remember, if you’re advertising something, you’re trying to make the reader want whatever you are advertising (in this case a robot).

History

Our topic this term is going to be Tudor Shropshire. Last week in history, we looked at home the Tudors fitted within the bigger picture of British history. Today, you are going to see if you can find out the order of these Tudor Kings and Queens.
