P6 were making posters and they were writing in English what they want to know in French that they can use in the class everyday such as can I go to the toilet, what time is it, get ready for lunch, wash your hands and more. We went into groups of about 6 and helped each other. By Lucy, Alica and Iona.

O2 and the NSPCC have joined forces on a mission to help all children and their families in the UK stay safe online. They recently launched a website https://www.net-aware.org.uk/ which gives detailed advice and reviews of the different online social networks which young people use. It covers over 50 different apps including popular apps like Facebook, Instagram and Snapchat to lesser known apps such as Kik, Roblox and Musical.ly. It reviews the levels of risk associated with each app and also includes the views of different young people about each app and how safe they feel using it.
CREATIVITY IN THE SNOW ANYONE?
Have a go at making an igloo? With help from adults you can make snow bricks and a great den. How will you decorate the interior?
The Scandinavians have long dark winters but try to create warmth with candles, blankets etc What is Danish hygge?
Check out images of Harbin in China and their amazing snow and ice sculpture event for 3-D ideas.
Go to new places to enjoy the snow and the views. Take some pictures of wintry trees and then use these as an art inspiration. Victoria Crowe is an artist who has done just that. Google her.
What can you make with icicles? What can you make with powdery snow or another kind of snow.
Il neige. It is snowing in French. How many other languages can you say that in? The winner wins an ice-cream. Try making a fun-flavoured ice-cream outside!
If you can get on skis and sledges and swish through The White Stuff!

This week we started to look at life in Roman times.
Use your research skills to find out more about Roman homes. What materials were used to build houses? How were the walls and floors decorated? Were the homes heated?
Next week we will be investigating the clothes they wore and the food they ate. Perhaps you can find something out and be ready to share it with the class.
You can find some suggested activities to continue your learning on these snow days here.
Remember to also have lots of fun in the snow and spend quality time with your friends and family! You can tweet pictures of the good times you are having to @MidCaler_PS

Write a winter poem using imagery, similes and metaphors.
Numeracy
Practise times tables. Time yourself! See how quickly you can write out a times table then try and beat your record.
Continue to develop your skills in measuring and weighing by following a recipe. Take pictures to share your work with the class on return to school.
Weigh and measure items from around the home and create a table to record your results.
Carry out a survey of your choice for example favourite sandwich filling and display your results in a bar chart or pie chart.
Other areas
Research weather conditions and how icicles and snowflakes are formed.
Record daily temperatures in a table then display results in a graph.
Choose a Scandinavian country, research and create a fact file. Compare their weather to ours here in Scotland. For example how do they cope in wintry weather? Does their daily life change in the winter?
