P6W: week beginning 5th October 2020

| 0 comments

We have made it to the end of Term 1 – well done P6W.  I’m sure everyone is looking forward to their holiday.

This week we have been focusing on improving our story writing skills.  We planned and wrote another adventure story and the pupils agreed they had met more of the required success criteria for this genre.  We all enjoyed listening to our stories being read out.  In maths we have been calculating time durations and used stopwatches and egg timers to time different activities.  As part of our Forces topic we used a Newton meter to measure the amount of force needed to pull an object over different surfaces then we designed information posters to explain when friction is useful and not useful.

HOME CHALLENGE

As we are off for a week it would be a good idea to keep practising multiplication tables, in particular the 6x, 7x, 8x and 9x tables.

I have also assigned you some tasks on Education City – homework.  I hope you’ll give them a go.

Another home learning task would be to draw and/or take a note of 2 or 3 occasions when friction has been useful for you and when it has not been useful .

Email your work to me if you can to eaavril.wilson@glow.sch.uk

Have a great holiday!

Mrs W
