Year 6 Monday 23rd November

Good morning Year 6 and happy Monday.    

Welcome to our virtual page. We would like you to log in every day to access your learning.  As we are all isolating, 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 all 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 some of the extracts from The Happy News (PDF below) before writing begins.

This issue was all about strength and I found this article really interesting, inspiring and comforting. I hope you do too.

9:15-10:15

Writing

Welcome to today’s writing lesson….or should I say lessons! Don’t worry: you only need to do one of them. Start watching the first video below and it will all become clear! And as you can see, they are both about Macbeth, which I know we have all been enjoying studying.

By the way, in the shared writing, I’ve realised that I say the word ‘ not’, but fail to write it down so keep an eye out for that – oops!

If you normally work with a teaching assistant at the start of writing, click on the document below to help you with today’s writing.


10:15-10:30

Enjoy a quick break.

You will then re-cap your understanding of fact and opinion by researching statements about William Shakespeare.

    1. Hi Katelyn
      Well done for not giving up. So, if you look at the denominator it has got to be a factor of 20. Which means it has to be 2, 4, 5 or 10. See which one works.

    1. Well done for having a go Theo. Barvember is for everyone. I think you will be able to do the first two questions when you get used to using the bar method.
