Good morning Year 6 and happy Monday.
Welcome to our virtual page. As we are all living under the restrictions of a national lockdown, we will maintain a routine which is as close as possible to a normal school day. New lessons will be uploaded every day and we are available in the comments section should you require any support.
We hope you enjoy today’s lessons. Please stay safe.
From Miss Kinsman, Mrs Bridges and Mrs Gillett.
Today’s timetable.
9:00-9:15
Good morning. Please say hello in the comments section below so we can mark you in on our registers. Settle in to the day by reading an extract from The Happy News (image below) which I think we could all do with right now, before writing begins.
Something happy this morning…
9:15-10:15
Writing
Thank you for all the writing sent in last Thursday; here’s some feedback for you.
Here’s today’s writing video. As always, please pause when asked to, but also when you need to. You may find it useful to make notes as you watch, and please do ask questions via comments if you would find that useful too. Submit your learning at the end of the session (with your name on!), please.
If you usually use a sheet for writing with prompt questions on, here is today’s. Also, you won’t need to watch all the video; instead, stop it when I start talking about colons as your focus is different and has been sent to your families via Marvellous Me.
10:15-10:30
Enjoy a quick break.
10:30-11:30

- Check out the activities on Coach’s PE From Home page here and choose one (or more!) to complete.
- Go for some exercise outdoors, whether it’s a walk, a jog, a run or something else.
- Choose an activity from Youth Sports Trust. You can find a list of fun activities here.
If you are able to, please take photos or videos of whichever activity you choose and upload to Twitter @hillstoneps (include your name and year group) so we can see what you are getting up to!

I am very sorry.I forgot to say “hi” this morning
No problem at all Bethany! I hope you’ve had a lovely day.
On the word search, me and my family have all tried to look for Arctic Ocean but can’t find it.
Thanks for letting us know Mason. I will have a look now too, but it may be that it is missing, in which case I will feedback to Miss Kinsman.
I can’t see it either Mason. It must be missing from the sheet, but well done for finding all of the others, and for persevering with Arctic Ocean!
