Word Aware

Play 'Taboo' with someone in your house. This is the game where you have to get the other person to guess the word you are describing, but you can't mention the name of the word. There's an online version here, or you can come up with your own words.

    1. Hi Amira,

      1 and 2 - Yes!

      3. You're right that 32 and 40 are multiples of 8, but this sequence isn't the 8 times table - it's just a series of two-digit numbers with a difference of 8. I'd start by working out what the ones digits have to be. For example, if the ones digit of the first number in the sequence was a __5, then a number after it would need to have a ones digit of ___3, and the number after that would need to have a ones digit of ___1. There isn't a 1, so the first number in the sequence can't have a ones digit of ___5.

      4. Let's say our WHOLE is the big square that has been divided into some medium and some small squares. If the whole had been divided equally into small squares, how many would you have in total? (Imagine the medium squares all divided into the small squares.) How many equal parts are there? (This is your denominator.) How many parts are shaded? (This is your numerator.)

      5. The mass of the jar is 470g. The mass of the jar and six marble is 1.1kg (what's this in grams?). What's the mass of six marbles? Can you use this to calculate the mass of the jar and four marbles (when two marbles have been removed)?

      Hope this helps - leave a comment if you need more help.

      (Ms Tupman, by the way)

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 - Literacy

 In Literacy, we read and wrote discussion texts about whether or not artefacts such as the Benin Bronzes should be returned to their countries of origin. To explore the issue, Year 6 took part in role-play activities and conscience alleys to share their opinions and understand how different people might feel about this topical issue. Year 6 showed great maturity in discussing this topic and were able to express their viewpoints with evidence and arguments to back themselves up.
