I have battled the technological demons and now have the second installment of chapter 11 recorded.

I apologise about the slow talking and gaps, still getting used to the technology!
Submitting your work: You can either write out on paper (don’t forget the date and I can statement or you can type up on the notepad feature on seesaw – My preferred option.
GPS
Today in your GPS session we are going to have a recap on relative pronouns. Some of you might remember these from when we looked at it in school. Don’t worry that we have covered this in school previously, I want you to have a recap today so that you can use relative clauses in your non-chronological report and we would have carried out a recap in school too!

Today’s English lesson is about improving a dull NCR.
I have created a video lesson for you to watch (I apologise for the sound quality and slow pace, I am learning a new skill of online teaching/vlogging and hopeful the content will improve as I become more confident). I have attached supporting materials below the video.
Submission: Please write your improved version on either paper or the notepad on seesaw (preferred option).

Parents/Adults at home: Please, please, please give me a little feedback about the videos, I am learning, but would love to know anything I could do to improve them…be gentle! Constructive criticism please.
Mini-maths
