Primary 6 – Monday 27th April

Good morning Primary 6,

I hope that you had a lovely weekend and had the chance to enjoy the good weather.

Your spelling words for this week are words which contain “ow.”

arrow

narrow

sparrow

yellow

elbow

pillow

window

follow

hollow

borrow

sorrow

shadow

shallow

Copy them into your jotter and then practice them any way you choose.

Your spelling words, and some words from their word families, are also waiting for you on Sumdog.

Speaking of Sumdog, you have a Place Value Challenge starting today and there is some support work in the Grammar section to help you with your spelling too.

Here is Cressida Cowell reading Chapter 14 of, “How to Train your Dragon.”

Hiccup reveals his, “fiendishly clever plan.” After listening to the chapter try to break Hiccup’s plan into steps. You can number each step and draw a simple image to show what is happening.

Example,

Step 1: Steal feathers from the nesting birds.

Step 2: Steal every item of material that we can find.

Step 3: …..

And so on. Try not to include TOO much detail if you draw Baggybum’s hairy knickers.

You can send me your work at

I’ve also assigned you two new short books on Scholastic that you can read this week with quizzes about your reading.

You should also have received your GLOW log ins and passwords which means that you can use your own email address. If you didn’t get your log in, let me know and I’ll send it out to you.

Let’s start the week with some movement to get your body working again.

I heard a story about someone who set this workout to double speed so that they could do it in 10 minutes, but they burst.

 

After the Resurrection on Easter Sunday Jesus appeared to many people. One of those appearances is described in Luke’s Gospel.

Luke 24:13-35 International Children’s Bible (ICB)

On the Road to Emmaus

13 That same day two of Jesus’ followers were going to a town named Emmaus. It is about seven miles from Jerusalem. 14 They were talking about everything that had happened. 15 While they were discussing these things, Jesus himself came near and began walking with them. 16 (They were not allowed to recognise Jesus.) 17 Then he said, “What are these things you are talking about while you walk?”

The two followers stopped. Their faces were very sad. 18 The one named Cleopas answered, “You must be the only one in Jerusalem who does not know what just happened there.”

19 Jesus said to them, “What are you talking about?”

The followers said, “It is about Jesus of Nazareth. He was a prophet from God to all the people. He said and did many powerful things. 20 Our leaders and the leading priests gave him up to be judged and killed. They nailed him to a cross. 21 But we were hoping that he would free the Jews. It is now the third day since this happened. 22 And today some women among us told us some amazing things. Early this morning they went to the tomb, 23 but they did not find his body there. They came and told us that they had seen a vision of angels. The angels said that Jesus was alive! 24 So some of our group went to the tomb, too. They found it just as the women said, but they did not see Jesus.”

25 Then Jesus said to them, “You are foolish and slow to realise what is true. You should believe everything the prophets said. 26 They said that the Christ must suffer these things before he enters his glory.” 27 Then Jesus began to explain everything that had been written about himself in the Scriptures. He started with Moses, and then he talked about what all the prophets had said about him.

28 They came near the town of Emmaus, and Jesus acted as if he did not plan to stop there. 29 But they begged him, “Stay with us. It is late; it is almost night.” So he went in to stay with them.

30 Jesus sat down with them and took some bread. He gave thanks for the food and divided it. Then he gave it to them. 31 And then, they were allowed to recognise Jesus. But when they saw who he was, he disappeared. 32 They said to each other, “When Jesus talked to us on the road, it felt like a fire burning in us. It was exciting when he explained the true meaning of the Scriptures.”

33 So the two followers got up at once and went back to Jerusalem. There they found the 11 apostles and others gathered. 34 They were saying, “The Lord really has risen from death! He showed himself to Simon.”

35 Then the two followers told what had happened on the road. They talked about how they recognised Jesus when he divided the bread.

 

Imagine that you were one of those followers of Jesus that he appeared to on the road to Emmaus. Write about your experience that day and how it changed you.

 

Mr. McIntosh
