1:20pm Online class chat! Get ready to share any news you have! This will last about half an hour.

Brainbreak/Health –

Resilience Alphabet-(this will take about 15 minutes):D is for downtime

Personal Project

There were so many great suggestions for our new topic that I think it is best that you complete a personal project instead. Ideas suggested included – dinosaurs, capital cities and flags, World War 1, Wildlife and food! Unfortunately you will not be allowed to do a project on Fortnite. (I double checked with Mrs Wallace!) So all I want you to do for now is think about choosing something to research. This project will take up quite a lot of time so choose wisely. Think of all the work that went into our project on World War 2. You need to pick something that you will enjoy. Also a topic that will allow you to find out lots of interesting information. Maybe chat with someone at home? It should be something you can do by working a few hours each week (average: ½ hour each day) for 4 weeks. Obviously I will give you time during afternoons on TEAMS.

When you are ready the first thing you will need to do is complete your research and make notes in your own words, in your jotter. You can use reference books, for example, encyclopedias and atlases, the internet, newspapers and magazines or personal interviews. Then, after a week of research we will discuss the way forward and what you would like to do in order to present your findings.

Please let me know what you have decided to do when you have committed to an topic.

Practical Science – If you have the equipment and/or maybe someone to help you choose one of the following activities.(Or save them for a rainy day.)

Tornado in a Bottle  (uses simple equipment)

Bright as a New Penny  (uses simple equipment)

Glasgow Science Centre-If you are enjoying the suggestions for practical science there are lots on here – if you scroll down-you can even make homemade ice-cream! Ask permission at home first!

Listening and Talking

LI – To talk clearly and with expression about a topic. SC – I can present a 2 minute detailed solo talk on a topic or event that interests me.

You did such a great job with your writing activity with Miss Taylor last week I thought you might enjoy this. Your talk can be about absolutely anything. It could be an area of World War 2, a hobby that you have or even be about your pets. It would be a good idea to write notes in your jotter then practise giving your talk. You could self assess using 2 stars and a wish. If you are able to, and would like to, you can send a video to the school email and then they will be forwarded to me. I would love to see them. Good luck!
