Hello Primary 6.
I have uploaded a range of different activities this week. Please feel free to complete what you can. Remember to read right to the bottom as there is a range of fun activities. If you need any help or clarification on anything please feel free to email me or post on Teams.
We will continue to have a Team talk at 1.30pm each day (Tues, Wed and Thurs). This will let us have a catch up and discuss any work that you are unsure of. Please don’t feel you have to join everyday unless you want to. I would love everyone to try to join at least 1 if you are able to. We will have our spelling test at 11am on Thursday this week as we are off on Friday.
Morning Challenge
Slides 72-74. We will complete 1 each day. I would love it if you could answer on the chat in Teams. I will post a daily comment to start the discussion and just hit reply. You don’t have to write your answers on paper just type them straight onto Teams.
You can also do these each day if you fancy it.
Literacy
Spelling – I have only given you 10 words each this week as it is a short week. Complete 2 tasks of your choice this week. You will find your words on the drop down tab. We will have a live spelling test on Thursday at 11am on Teams. If you are unable to make this please ask someone at home to read them to you. You can post your scores on Teams. I have added some spelling ideas if you want to mix things up a bit.
Second Level Spelling Bingo
Reading – I will send out the reading sessions for your book. . If anyone is struggling with the books please let me know and I can give you more time for each session (the same way I would in class).
Hufflepuff: Cosmo B. Henderson: Could Do Better
Slytherin: Sharks
Ravenclaw: Pet Finders on the Case
Gryffindor:
Quidditch: Please try and log onto Nessy whenever you can.
As well as your sessions feel free to have a look at this activity grid which might help you to understand your book a bit better. You can also choose to complete any of these with a book you have read at home.
Comprehension – Here is a VE Day comprehension. Feel free to complete this if you want to learn a bit more about what VE Day is.
Writing – Continue with your journal task (separate tab). Remember to reflect on your feelings and share what is happening in the world. It is up to you how you complete this and whether you are completing it each day.
Information Sheet
Using the information in the VE Day section and your own research I would like you to create a fact file all about a VE vetran. You can illustrate it as well if you wish. Feel free to use the sheet provided or create your own.
VCOP Skills
Here is a PowerPoint to help you keep your VCOP skills sharp. Maybe try a couple of tasks each week.

I will leave the PowerPoint up in case anyone needs to refer back to it.
