Make sure that you are happy with the animal you have created, and remember there are different options available, depending on which animal you start with! (Use the buttons highlighted in the picture below to change your starting animal.)


Here are some examples of creatures you could make:

    1. Good morning, Amira!

      1. Not quite - how long is the car? How long is the bus? What's the difference?

      2. Yes, the heaviest is either B or C, but which one is it? C weighs more than A (C > A), so A can't be the heaviest. Does C weigh more than B, or does B weigh more than C?

      3. and 4. YES! Well done.

      5. I'm going to add something about this one in a moment.

Thank you so much if you've posted a comment on the blog - we have replied to every comment that we've seen.

Ramadan and reading

Ramadan Mubarak, Year 6!  We know that Ramadan this year will be very different to any that you have experienced so far. Please watch this message from Bristol Muslim Strategic Leadership Group (BMSLG), the Mayor of Bristol and others - they very eloquently say all that we wish to say to you:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ma3iNRImtbo .  We also have a few reading updates for you! For those of you who have been following along with Miss Davies' Family Performance Poetry Challenge, Ms Tupman's aunt and uncle have decided to join you! Here's their version of 'The Boneyard Rap':  https://youtu.be/RYMP-pN_8Tc . Finally, Miss Davies has made some reading lessons for you. Your parents should have received a text message with the link, but in case they didn't, you can access the lesson here:  https://youtu.be/GqMqvtIb0G4 . It will take you about 20 minutes to do, and there will be a new lesson next Wednesday.

Activities - Week 12 - Monday

Good morning, Year 6! If you're joining us at school on Wednesday, then your most important job for today and tomorrow is to make sure you're eating dinner and going to bed at a sensible time, getting enough sleep and then waking up at the time you'll need to be waking up for school. Getting into a good routine now will make Wednesday easier! We'll be celebrating Empathy Day tomorrow, but there are things you could do all week to participate.
