Good morning Year 6. I hope that you had a fun day learning yesterday and you started to think carefully about what makes you healthy.
Zoom Help Desk - don’t forget to book in with me if you want a 1:1 session tomorrow.
Here is our weekly overview and our timetable for today.
‘Kindness is a gift that everyone can afford to give.’
For the next two weeks, I want us all to think about kindness and how we can make each other smile. I will be setting you all some small challenges that I know will have a big impact. Keep an eye on your emails and on our daily blog, but start thinking kind. What can we do to be kind? What small acts of kindness will brighten up someone’s day?
I have set you a kindness mission today - check your emails!
Please continue to devote some time to down time this week…keep up the non screen activities and send me some photos.
English - Newspaper Outcome 1 - The Death of Prince Otto
Today we are writing the headline and the introductory paragraph. After the writing lesson, we will be recapping the use of inverted commas ready for tomorrow’s lesson.
