P6/7 Homework w/b 30.4.18
Literacy – Note taking and summarising
This week we are learning to take notes on programmes we watch and on texts we read, and then summarise the main points we have noted into a short paragraph, to give an overview of the main ideas and Very Important Points.
For your homework this week, choose a favourite programme to watch and take notes on 5 minutes of the programme and then write a paragraph summary of what you watched using your notes.
Maths – Active Learn Games
New Active learn games have been uploaded to your accounts, to help you practise multiplication and division.
IDL – Rainforest Animal
As part of your rainforest topic with Miss Brittain, choose an animal which lives in the rainforest to find out about. Find out about:
- Its name, including its scientific name if possible
- Which type of rainforest climate in lives in (Tropical or temperate)
- Which layer of the rainforest is its habitat.
- What it eats
- How it lives – a den, a burrow etc.
- What other animals prey on it, if any.
- Life expectancy
- Its risk of endangerment
You can again, present this information in a format of your choice, as you did with last week’s rainforest layers homework, including as a piece of colourful artwork with facts. Have fun!
