Year 6 Thursday 21st January 2021

Good morning Year 6 and happy Thursday.    

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.

I really love the sound of this charity!


9:15-10:15

Writing

Thank you for all the writing sent in yesterday; here’s some feedback for you:

Today, we are continuing (and completing) the piece of writing about the mysterious image. If you did not take part in Wednesday’s writing lesson, go back and complete that first! There are a few places where you need to pause today’s video before the big pause when you complete your writing! Please do remember to pop your name clearly on your learning before you photograph it and send it in.

Below is a PDF containing the four mysterious images. Remember, you are writing about the same one as yesterday.

If you usually use a sheet for writing with prompt questions on, please watch the video up until I start showing you my shared writing. When it gets to that point, stop the video and complete your writing task below:


10:15-10:30

Enjoy a quick break.


10:30-11:30

Maths

Warm up: play broken calculator. Click here for website.

For yesterday’s answers, including pink group, click here.

Feedback from yesterday: overall great. The errors you are making are times table errors so be careful if you know you find a specific table difficult. It might help to jot the times table down before dividing.

Watch the lesson above, pausing at the appropriate times to complete any questions.

Now click here for your question sheet. Remember you can re-watch parts of the video to help you answer the questions.

PE

There are a few options for your PE sessions, each day.

  1. Follow along with Joe Wicks, on his YouTube channel here, where he will be back to doing live workouts every morning at 9am. You can catch up with these in the afternoon, or shift your day around so you start the day this way and follow along live.
  2. Check out the activities on Coach’s PE From Home page here and choose one (or more!) to complete.
  3. Go for some exercise outdoors, whether it’s a walk, a jog, a run or something else.
  4. 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!


15:20-15:35

Find a cosy space at home, then sit back and relax whilst listening to Mrs Bridges read some extracts from The Book of Hopes.

        1. Try the maths first.

          Go to where it says Miss Hodgkinson’s work.

          Watch the lesson (it’s an orange screen with dividing three in it).

          Then click on the questions for AL

    1. Corey, I can’t seem to find it either – sorry.

      If I do manage to find it and add it, I will let you know. Well done for completing today’s work.

    1. It’s by Sport England.
      I think they are looking at how active children in primary school are, especially during the pandemic. Then I guess, depending on what they find out, they will put things in place for schools and primary age children.
