Hi 3J,
This week we have learned, practiced and performed a wonderful song by the famous Jamaican musician, Bob Marley.
The song we sang this week was ‘One love ‘ >>> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vdB-8eLEW8g
Can you remember the lyrics?
Bob Marley has many other famous songs. You may already know the song ‘3 little birds ‘ >>> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LanCLS_hIo4
Have a listen to this song called ‘Is This Love ‘
VIDEO
Bob Marley made Raggae music. What is similar in each of these songs that make it a Raggae piece of music?
Try to listen to the drum beat, the instruments and the message in the lyrics.

Hi 3J
As part of our Black History Month celebration, we looked at art by Chris Ofili.
Chris’s art has been featured in the Tate, and he won the Turner Prize at the age of 30.
Famously, he used elephant dung in his art.

Hi 3J,
Do you recognise some of these emotions?
I really enjoy the movie Inside Out and the different ways they show the emotions and feelings we have every day.
Take a look at ‘Anger’.
This character always shouts, runs around angry, throws things and finds it difficult to stay calm.
What advice can we give the them? Write a short letter to them in the comments.
Try to use:
An appropriate opening and ending (Dear… and From…).
Personal pronouns (you, me, my, your).
Pieces of advice for them to calm down.
Emotive language (tell them you understand how they feel!)
Now look at ‘Fear’
This character is always scared, hiding, not wanting to try new things, worried about what is happening next.
Try to give ‘Fear’ 5 top tips to help them . You might want to suggest something you do when you’re feeling scared.
I hope to see some of your letters and top tips in the comments!
Lucille
