If you haven't already watched it, then we'd recommend that you watch Newsround's special programme on racism - we watched it and discussed it this week at school.

Remember that you can email us if you have any problems or questions, or if you just want to share your work. Are you at home? Do you have any messages for your friends at school? Email us and we'll pass them on. year6.cabot@bristol-schools.uk

The Friday Maths Challenge is a bit different this week... BBC Bitesize have teamed up with Premier League Primary Stars to bring you some football-themed activities!

Head over to this page and watch the video, then read the information in Parts A and B.

After that, have a go at the quiz (Activity 1).

Then, try answering these questions (you can choose whether to attempt Level 1, 2 or 3).


Literacy

We will return to our Non-chronological report on the Rhiswanozebtah on Monday, when some of you are in school. We will post different literacy activities on Fridays.

Miss Davies has a brilliantly scary short story for your literacy lesson today:

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 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 - Music Week

 For Music Week, we listened to 'The Carnival of the Animals'. Year 6 focused on 'The Aviary'. After discussing the piece of music, we looked at images of birds and then collaborated as a table to create our own bold, beautiful birds. Don't they look great?
