Activities - Week 14 - Wednesday

Good morning, Year 6!

Maths

 Starter
To warm up, have a go at a Daily 10 Maths Challenge. Choose your own level of challenge and skill to practise. Have a few goes and see if you can beat your previous score. Or you could challenge someone else in your family!

Main Activity

Today's lesson is about finding the area of parallelograms.

First, watch this video and have a go at any of the questions in it:



Then complete this worksheet: Wednesday's Maths Worksheet.

(Don't forget that you can do this by writing the answers in your book or on a piece of paper - you don't need to print the sheet out.)

Then check your work against the answers: Wednesday's Maths Answers.


Literacy


Here's the video clip I mention in the lesson: Seven Worlds, One Planet: Africa (watch from 2 minutes in until the end of the section on chimpanzees).

Here's the website where I said you could get extra information about chimpanzees: Chimpanzee Facts. (Be careful - not all of the facts are about chimps' talents!)

Bonjour les enfants !

This week I have a video for you about lots of birthday presents. It was my birthday in April, just after we started lockdown, so unfortunately I wasn’t able to celebrate it properly, although my daughter did make me a lovely cake - yum yum (or miam miam as they say in French !)

The girl in this cartoon receives lots of clothes as presents. After you have watched it, I wonder if you will be able to draw a picture of your favourite outfit and label it in French? If you do, make sure you take a photo of your drawing and email it in to school.
Au revoir!

Madame Cartlidge

 History

 Take a look at NASA's Image of the Day Gallery. Pick a photo that interests you (or more than one). Why do you think that NASA have included it in this gallery? Why is it important to you? Can you research any more information about it?

 Have a great day!

Ms Tupman and Mr Town

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.
