Tuesday 😍

Good morning everyone, we hope you are all feeling happy. 😁

Literacy 🐷

Practise your letters and sounds.

Letters and Sounds. Longer words.

Lesson: use speech bubbles.

Think about the story of The Three Little Pigs. Think about different settings from the story. It could be the pigs home with mum. Meeting the wolf. The wolf blowing the house down. Draw and colour a setting. When you have done that cut out two characters and a speech bubble for each one. Write in the speech bubble what each character is saying! Here is an example.

background and speech bubbles example

pig, wolf, speech bubbles for background

Numeracy 😸

Lesson: Recognise 3D shapes – solve and shade colour activity

Have a go at playing this interactive game. Get an adult to help you set it up. You will need to click ‘3D shapes’ -> ‘Relaxed mode—slow’ to give you plenty of time to answer the questions.

For today’s activity, you will need some colouring crayons. See if you can recognise the different 3D shapes and colour them correctly using the key.

Recognise 3D shapes – colour

RE 😊

Lesson: symbols of Islam.

Look at the PowerPoint.

PowerPoint – The Five Pillars of Islam

Have a go at labelling the pillars and then decorating them.

Work hard and have a great day! 🌞

Now try completing this worksheet to name the 3D shapes.

Use the word bank to help you with your spellings.

History 😁

Lesson: Order the events of The Great Fire of London. Watch the video.

The Great Fire of London

When you have watched that look at the events. Cut out the events and stick them in the right place so that they are in the right order. when you have done that then  can draw a picture to show what happened.

We hope you all have a great day! 🌈🤗😍

Year 6 Home Learning Week 3 (18th January)

Hello Year 6! 😊

Well done for another fantastic week of home learning! You really are making us very proud of you all 🥰 Below you will find the timetable for Week 3- remember that this is just a guide and you can be flexible with how you structure your learning!

Weekly Timetable 18th January

In English, we will be starting an exciting new writing topic which will be our focus for the next two weeks. You will be learning how to write a non-chronological report, which will be based on the topic of pandas.

In Maths lessons, we will be consolidating our understanding of fractions and we will be practising applying this to different contexts. Next week, we will be moving on to a new area of learning: percentages and their relationship with decimals and fractions. As with last week, some of the maths activities are labelled 1 star or 2 star. (The 1 star activity is more straightforward than the 2 star; choose which activity you would like to do depending on how confident you feel!)
