P6A AM Tasks – Monday 11th May

Good morning P6a!  I hope that everyone had a good weekend.  Here are this morning’s tasks:

Task 1 Mathematics

We are continuing with our work on function machines today.  Complete the TJ pages either in your jotter or on a typed document and upload your work to your Personal Learning blog.

Function Machines TJ Maths

Task 2 Writing

Watch the video clip  https://www.literacyshed.com/catchit.html

Write the story of what happened as if you are either one of the meerkats or the vulture.  You will need to use descriptive language to share with the reader what happened from the viewpoint of one of these main characters.  If you choose to write as a meerkat, you might begin like this:

It was a normal hot day in the savannah.  We got up and checked on our dewberry fruit, this was the first thing that we did every day.  The fruit is the most precious possession of our mob and we cherished it.”

Have a look at the 2nd level writing targets to help you.

Primary 7 Monday 11th May AM

Good morning P7, we hope you had a restful weekend.

Here is today’s Literacy Work:

There are many different characters in White Fang; your task today is to do a character study on 2 of them. In the centre of your page write the name of your chosen character, around the outside you must include information about the character – this can be physical traits, looks, personality etc. Write what you know about the character so far and use direct quotes from the book to support what you are saying.

Keep up to date with your ‘White Fang’ reading

White Fang PDF version of the book

White Fang pages and film letter This tells you which chapters to read each week

https://www.oxfordowl.co.uk/

This is an online audio book if you need a bit more support with the reading.  You log in using the ‘My Class Login’ button using these details:

Username: sjo primary 7
Password: White Fang            Capital W and F and space between words – sometimes easier to copy and paste

Continue taking notes: Who are the main characters? Where is the novel set? What are the main events of the story?  This will help you write a book review at the end of the novel. This can be in your Home Learning Jotter or using a template like below (or if you find your own that’s fine too).

Notes Template PDF

 

Today’s Maths Work:

For mental maths we continue with Hopefully you can improve on your score each day or if you are finishing ALL 72 correctly, try and beat your time each day.  Post your scores/times to Your Personal Learning Blog.

BMBT Learn Its Week 4

https://blogs.glowscotland.org.uk/wl/stjohnogilvieprimary/files/2020/04/BM100second.mp3

Today we are going to look at quite an advanced piece of maths, the calculations involved in working out Speed, Distance and Time. It’s something we need to learn a bit about before the move to high school, don’t worry if you find it tricky to start with, you’ll learn more about it at secondary.

Start by looking at this PowerPoint which will explain the concept.

Time Distance and Speed PPT

There’s a little online starter mental game:

You have the choice of 2 levels today, work from book 2b or from 3a – Try your best and you are allowed to use a calculator today.

P5B Monday 11th May AM

Good morning everyone, I hope you all had a lovely weekend and enjoyed the nice weather. Did you spot any nice developments in the nature around you?

This week we will have some maths starters.

Daily Challenge

Number Talks – How would you solve this problem? 15 x 4? Can you draw and explain your method? How about 16×4, 15×40, 150×4? Choose one and show your strategies.

Numeracy – Fractions

Continuing with fractions. We have looked fractions of shapes and now we will compare fractions to see if they are equal. For example 1/2 is the same as 2/4. Remember the denominator is at the bottom, it explains how many parts the whole has been split into.  The numerator is at the top and explains how many parts of the shape we are talking about. Take a look at this video of a fractions wall.

www.bbc.co.uk/bitesize/clips/z46pvcw

What do you notice? The denominator gets bigger as the shape gets smaller.

This is a black and white fractions wall for you to print and colour or copy. Drawing your own fractions wall will give you good practice of using a ruler and also making sure the shapes are EQUAL sizes.     BW fractions wall

Equivalent Fractions PowerPoint

EF practice

Don’t forget the Sumdog Competition

Literacy – Spelling

New words for you. Read through and make sure you know what they all mean.

Then there are tasks for practice. Don’t worry if you can’t print, just do it on some paper. (neatly labelled and presented)

Term 4 Foxes       Term 4 Wildcats         Term 4 Deer      Term 4 Hedgehogs

See you this afternoon with hopefully a surprise!
