Presentations
we did pair work presentations with our table partners. Everyone did fairly different presentations from movies to Iphones to food.
That’s all for P6/5 this week.
Fun Friday!
Thank you all for posting such sensible and appropriate comments over the last couple of days. On Friday I will probably change things quite a lot in view of this and let you chat about pets etc. I also want to check the work you have been doing. I don’t necessarily need to see it all. Things that you are proud of. And this maths and the instructional writing “Recipe for a horrible person”. Please make sure you have completed both of these. I want to use these as a form of assessment, so please make sure they are done. Because of this I will not set any additional maths or language tasks for today. But you still have loads of stuff here to do! I think I might try to organise it so I can chat to you individually. As usual I think I have put up here far more work than you can get through. Please take control of your learning and be selective. Do what is most appropriate for yourself, and please do not stress about not getting it all done but please try to do the maths and writing activities I have asked for.
Reading: “Wonder”. Revision of summarising, questioning and predicting

Reading:. I don’t think many of you have done the follow up activity of Questioner from Literacy Circles. Please find a book that you like and silently read it. We will ask each other questions about the books we are reading. Again just use the sheet as support but write the work into your jotters.
If you have done everything else do Education City. Or “Think you know”
The other website I love is the BBC: check this out and show your parents / carers

Scottish SPCA Adventure Tails Activity Packs
Filled with approx. 20 pages of activities linked to all areas of the curriculum to ensure we are encouraging skills in numeracy, literacy, relate to science, health and wellbeing, expressive arts, languages, RME, social studies and technology. These can be accessed at home by the pupils and are, as always, free
They can be found on the link below:
https://www.scottishspca.org/our-work/animal-wise/animal-wise-for-primary
Children will be able to demonstrate they have completed each page of the booklet through solving clues as they go along in the form of anagrams. They can only get the letters for their anagram by sourcing the answers relating to each activity (one activity per curriculum area per page based on a specific topic). At the end of the book there will be a page to record all the anagrams and solve our Inspectors mystery.

P6/5 Daily Plan
Hello again!
On Monday’s daily plan I left out the “nagging” paragraph. Unfortunately on Monday afternoon Teams was not being used appropriately. So: Please remember that “Teams” gets really busy during the day so you are better off accessing the resources you need from “Files” the night before. Please also do not click on “New Conversation” in “Posts”. Please also remember it is not the correct platform for chat. Please do not post Giffs or pictures of pets etc, and keep your posting and pinging to the minimum, for example use the thumbs up “Like” emoji rather than post “OK”. This will make it easier for you to find things and be less distracting. Another plea: make sure you read this document and the timetable as it has a lot of answers to the questions you are asking. You should not need to ask each what you should do as it is all written here.
If you have done everything else do Education City and spelling.
