Part 2 of last week’s lesson. This week you will actually be putting images on your webpage.
Last week you looked at the terms ‘fair use’ and ‘copyright’. This week you use copyright-free images and will find appropriate images to use in your work.

Science
In this lesson, you will be learning how we can see different colours. You will apply our learning of reflection and refraction from previous lessons to understand how rainbows are made. At the end of the lesson there will be a chance to try creating your own rainbow by refracting light! You will need a piece of paper and a pencil for this lesson. If you would like to try making your own rainbow then you will also need a transparent glass of water or an old CD. You can still take part in the lesson if you do not have these items.

Useful video from you tube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0PyxLVXDkeY
This video recaps what we have done so far and then goes on to colours and light https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5U1vOWjC4uA
Topic
In this lesson, you will consider two questions: 1) How did WW2 lead to migration from the West Indies (Caribbean)? Were Caribbean migrants treated well?
Music:
Count on Me (Bruno Mars – SignSing)

PERFORMANCE TASK
1 – Watch and study the way the words are communicated with sign language. Compare the performance to last week’s True Colours. What’s the same? What’s different?
2- Watch again and see if you can join in when you feel as though you remember a sign.
- Watch it again, adding more signs as you do so.
- Stop and look at the lyrics without watching the video. Can you sign as you read?
Count on Me – Bruno Mars
If you ever find yourself stuck in the middle of the sea
I’ll sail the world to find you
If you ever find yourself lost in the dark and you can’t see
I’ll be the light to guide you
We’ll find out what we’re made of
When we are called to help our friends in need
You can count on me like one, two, three
I’ll be there
And I know when I need it, I can count on you like four, three, two
You’ll be there
‘Cause that’s what friends are supposed to do, oh yeah
Ooh, ooh, yeah, yeah
If you tossin’ and you’re turnin’ and you just can’t fall asleep
I’ll sing a song beside you
And if you ever forget how much you really mean to me
Everyday I will remind you, oh
We’ll find out what we’re made of
When we are called to help our friends in need
You can count on me like one,…
D and T
