PE and exercise links


Good morning, Year 6!

Lots of you have been telling us that you're a bit bored stuck indoors, and you'd like to do some exercise. Here's a reminder of some of the places you can find videos to exercise with, or other ideas for keeping yourselves fit and healthy:

If you have a garden, you can use that for games, too, and we are still allowed to go outside for some exercise such as a walk, bike ride, scoot or run, as long as we make sure that:


  • it is with the same people that we live with, and we don't meet up with other friends or family;
  • we stay 2 metres away from anyone else who is outside.
You could even set up your own fitness circuit, with different exercises to do in different places (skipping, star jumps, running on the spot, squats etc.), or you could choose six exercises, give each a number between 1 and 6, and roll your dice to see which exercise you have to do (or, roll twice to see how many times you need to do it).

Happy Friday,

Ms Tupman and Mr Town

Term 6 - Language Skills

Year 6 have been practising their -ant, -ance, -ancy and -ent, -ence and -ency spellings recently. One fun way we found to practise was by playing a matching game. Children had to turn over a word card and a definition card and see if they matched. If they did, the children had to try to spell the word without looking at the card. If they were correct, they kept the pair of cards. The winner was the player with the most pairs!

Term 6 - Writing

 In literacy lessons, we have been learning about part of S. F. Said's book, 'Phoenix'. We read an edited version of the first chapter, and over the next few weeks, created our own action stories based on that.

Term 5 - More Maths

 We used the double-sided counters to explore the game of Nim-7 . We enjoyed working out if there was a way of always winning, whether you were Player 1 or Player 2.  Once we'd explored that, we started asking ourselves other questions: "What would happen if we had an even number of counters?" "What if you could take more counters at a time?" "What if you used the same rules, but played with more people?" Each group picked a question to investigate further, and started to think about how to record what they had found out. Year 6 worked well in partnership with each other and really thought deeply about the maths behind the investigation.
