Good morning Year 6 and welcome to ‘SPORTS WEEK! This is when sports day should have been taking place so I am relying on you to get involved. All of the house captains have created their own videos to get their houses involved. Make sure you do this week and your house can be the winning house!
This week we are back to our other learning alongside english and maths. There is some history, science, RE and art, as well as a Year 6 piece of work that I need by the end of the week.
Click on the yellow video to hear your start of the week message from me!
Have a great week of learning.
This is our learning timetable for the week. I realise that everyone works slightly differently and you like to see what is coming up over the week. I have attached my visual timetable for the week so you can plan better. Where there is a little camera, that means that I will be filming that lesson for you.
Year 6 Task - YOUR PRIMARY SCHOOL MEMORY
A few weeks ago I asked you to start thinking about your primary school memory ready for the memory book at the end of the year. Now is your time to write your memory and get it sent over to me. This is your opportunity to think about the one (or two) key times whilst at Our Ladys that really stands out for you. When thinking, make sure that your memory is appropriate and personal to you. You want to be able to look back on this in years to come and smile.
I have included an example of some of the memories that were written last year to give you an idea of the detail that I need and want you to show off. Once you have finished writing it, can you then type it up on either: PUBLISHER, WORD OR POWERPOINT and email it across to me. You can email me on Purple Mash or at n.gregan@ourladystarofthesea.lancs.sch.uk
Have fun with this task. If you could email me by Friday, that would be great. You have a week for this task! On Friday I am going to set you an art challenge to go with this piece of writing for the book.
Sport’s Day Challenge for today. Don’t forget to get involved and submit me your entries!
English - Wonder Week 5 Lesson 1
In this section of the book we hear from Via and her perspective. I wonder why the author has chosen to include her thoughts and feelings in all of this? This is something that I would like you to think about. Please complete each of the slides on the lesson fully to get the most from the lesson that I have set.
I have added a button with the answers to the questions. This is for you to check that you have included everything that you need to include in your answers. Use purple pen to edit any answers that you need to.
Maths - IXL YEAR 5 MATHS STRAND R12
I have chosen a Year 5 strand of IXL to get us warmed up for the week. This covers the volume work that we completed last week and also gives us an opportunity to get a quick refresher ready for the lessons over the next few days.
History - Who was Isambard Brunel? What did he do for the railways? TWO DAY TASK
TASK 1 - Isambard Kingdom Brunel was a famous engineer who was responsible for building bridges, ships and railways. He was instrumental during the Industrial Revolution. But what else can you find out about him? Type up your research on the Purple Mash document that I have set as a To Do and submit it to me. What illustration are you going to include on your page?
TASK 2 - Railway artwork. Since they were first introduced, railways and locomotives have caught the imagination of many artists.
Your next challenge is to create your own work of art showing a scene on the railways.
•You can show a scene based on your knowledge of railways in the past or present.
•Think carefully about what details to include.
Remember every little part of your artwork should help us to tell the story.
