Hi everyone! I hope you’re all feeling happy and healthy today. The way we think and speak can have a positive influence on how we feel and act, so this week, if you feel yourself lacking in motivation, try saying ‘I CAN do it’.
I know it can be difficult to stay motivated at times, but I KNOW that you can do it, so try your best to keep working hard and think positively – YOU CAN DO IT!
To keep your dance moves going, why not try some DISCO! Follow the iMoves video for some ideas. We’d love to see some of your routines

In the last lesson, we mentioned photosynthesis.
Here is a YouTube video explaining more about photosynthesis.
Task 1: Answer these questions from the video
- What does the stomata absorb?
- Why are plants important?
Task 2: Join in with this song!
Here is a YouTube song to help you learn about photosynthesis. The song words are just underneath, so you can have a go at joining in. If you like dancing, you could have a go at copying the moves, or make up some of your own!
Photosynthesis (song words)
Plants don’t have a mouth like you and me
But they have to eat
so they spread their leaves so green
To capture sunlight’s energy
Plants don’t have a nose like you and me
But they have to breathe, did you know their leaves so green can take in air and make it clean
That’s photosynthesis, photosynthesis ….
Plants can’t hold a cup like you and me
But they have to drink
So they push their roots deep down
To soak up water from the ground.
Plants don’t wear green hats or shirts or jeans
So why are they green
It’s because all plants are filled
With green stuff we call chlorophyll. Chlorophyll?
Chlorophyll is a green pigment or colour found in plants. It helps them trap light and without it there’d be no …… photosynthesis, photosynthesis, photosynthesis
Plants can make their own food from sunlight water and air so cool
That’s because all plants are filled with green stuff we call chlorophyll
That’s photosynthesis, photosynthesis, photosynthesis, photosynthesis
That’s photosynthesis, photosynthesis, photosynthesis, photosynthesis
