Morning all!

The plan for today looks like….

• PE with Joe Wicks.  Now you do not have to do this live, the videos are available at any time on YouTube.

• Literacy-
• Using the 6 RWI words from yesterday can you find the definition (what the word means) and a synonym   ( a word that means the same) for each word.  The use these words or the synonyms in a sentence.  It is probably easier for you to create a sentence for each word or if you want can try and use more than one of the words in a sentence.
• Simile recap… Describe the pictures using similes.  Then pick a picture and write a paragraph describing the setting with the use of your similes.
• 

• Maths

1. Complete a worksheet of your choice.
2. Complete a rigour challenge.
3. Try out maths factor.  You may need to create a log in but it is free.  Make your log in details simple. Make sure you click ‘child sign in’.  There is a 30 day challenge which I know you competitive ones would love.   Enjoy!

To try and make your learning more exciting I have decided to pick a topic for you all to research.  I have chosen ….

THE EARTH.

Over the next few weeks you will look at different areas that explore the way in which the Earth functions.   I will post the ‘mini topic’ you are going to research weekly.  You can record your findings in your literacy jotter or if you have spare paper available you may wish to make a fact file similar to our WW2 one.  I am going to research it too!

I have chosen this topic because there are so many things you can learn and it is all engaging.  Some facts you may not get your head around but that’s what makes it fun!

I am going to give you the link to the site where you will find all of your information and facts.  The site has great videos, diagrams that you can copy and quizzes so you can test your knowledge.

This week you are going to look at Seasons!  Around the world there are four seasons – spring, summer autumn and winter but the northern and southern parts of the Earth have the same seasons but at different times.  You are going to find out about seasons and how it is possible for it to be summer in one country and winter in another?

If you click the link you will find the page below and the answers…

Enjoy!

What is happening today?

• PE with Joe Wicks or an alternative to wake you up!

• Literacy – RWI spelling.  Ask a parent/carer or older sibling to read out 6 of your RWI words.  Spell and mark the words.  With incorrect spelling words pick a task from your spelling grid to practice the correct spelling.
• Literacy – Simile Recap!  REMEMBER – A simile compares two different things using like or as.  For example, the man ran as fast as a cheetah.  This simile compares a man to a cheetah, using like or as.

Task 1 – Complete the simile…

1.  She was as good as ….
2. He was as quiet as a …..
3. The boy was as brave as a ….
4. They fought like ….

Task 2- Can you use similes to describe this picture?  Feel free to draw a picture and put it in your literacy book.

• Maths –

Complete a worksheet of your choice.

Do 1 maths challenge from the Rigour maths calendar. Triangles and Squares choose second level and Circles choose first level.  The calendars are on the blog, just search ‘maths calendar’ and the links are there.

Then if you wish, spend some time on sumdog. https://pages.sumdog.com/

Have a nice day p6!

Hello primary 6!😃

I hope you all had a wonderful Easter break!

Blog posts will be related to all our prior knowledge and previous learning.

Remember if you have any questions please do not hesitate to email me.

Take care ❤️
