P5/6 Friday 8th May
Fun Friday!
I am going to copy each day’s “Daily Plan” ( I have changed the name from “Read Me First”) document from Team’s “Files” into the blog as some of you have been having difficulties accessing it. I hope this helps. However it seems as though I can not put in some materials into the blog that I can into Teams. I don’t think that your issues have been about accessing Teams, more about downloading stuff????
Spelling activity: choose a list of Fry’s words that is appropriate for yourself. Create a Word document with a table of 2 columns and 25 rows. Write your chosen 25 words in the first column. Using a dictionary, on-line or book, put a definition of the word in the second column next to it. I have created an example to support you if you are not sure how to do this. I have created a dedicated folder in “Files” for this work. Please include your name as part of the file name to differentiate it from the others. Thomas and Ethan thank you for the work you have done. Please try to do another set of more challenging words. I have also created the first in a series of “HotPotatoes” activities, generated from the spelling work Thomas had produced. Please try it and tell me what you think. I am going to try to put together another activity, using a different part of “HotPotatoes” and will use the list Ethan generated. If you would like to experiment with making your own “HotPotatoes” quizzes here is a link https://hotpot.uvic.ca/. I will be using it more in the future, and will give a “teach” on how to use it.
The use of Teams went really well this week, thank you. I have tidied up “Files” and, I think, made it easier to use and find things. Please let me know if you have any issues with it.
Keep your personal projects going- you still have the folder to post them into – please check out the work Thomas, Ethan and Zoey have already put in there.
Topic – Read Ethan’s “Broons” story and Thomas’s “Oor Wullie” and “Broons” stories. Challenge: can you do better? Think about interesting ways to present these stories. Please post any ideas you have so we can discuss them. What about making a film? I have created a dedicated folder for this work in “Files” as well.
Continue to focus on money in maths first and then move onto measure. This will help progress your work on decimals to 3 places.

Use the book that is most relevant to you – like “chili questions”. Do it like we do in class – don’t feel the need to do every question, just do enough to show yourself that you have understood. Check your answers in the back as you need. And Please contact me for support when you need to.
Education City: You all appear to still have quite a lot of unfinished activities so I will wait until I publish some more.
Logan S suggested growing your own vegetables as a health project. Ethan has also now started growing strawberries. Anyone else?
Keep your daily diary going, recording what you are doing, what exercise you do, what you eat and how you feel.
Continue to practise your French using the resources from the link below: https://powerlanguage.courses/forfamilies/french/
Don’t forget to do the day’s activities on BBC “Bitesize”.
And exercise with Joe (or his girlfriend!?) https://www.bbc.co.uk/cbbc/joinin/bp-joe-wicks-workout
Take care all of you.
