Why hello there! Welcome back. Here are today’s learning tasks.

English

LO: Using relative clauses

• We’ve done quite a bit of work with relative clauses this year, but they can be a bit tricky to use correctly sometimes. Today’s Oak National Academy virtual lesson should help your understanding, and give you some opportunities to practise.
• Remember: a relative clause is a part of a sentence that provides some extra information, but begins with a relative pronoun: who, whose, which, that.
  • The baby, who was very tired, fell asleep in the crib.
  • Can I please have me pencil that I gave you earlier?

Fun fact of the day: The loudest sound ever recorded was the eruption of a volcano called Mount Krakatoa in 1883, at 310 decibels. It was heard as far as 3,100 miles away!
