Activities - Week 16 - Tuesday

Good morning, Year 6!

We will be contacting your parents later today with an invitation for you to come into school on Wednesday 15th July, from 1.30 - 2.30pm for a leavers' lunch. This will give you an opportunity to say goodbye to any friends and members of staff that you won't otherwise see. (For safety reasons, you will need to bring and eat your own food!) If the hoodies are ready, you will also be able to collect them.

If you have any questions, please email us at: year6.cabot@bristol-schools.uk

Maths

Starter
To practise your angles skills, have a go at the game Alien Attack.

Main Activity

Today's lesson is about angles in regular polygons.

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



Then complete this worksheet: Tuesday'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: Tuesday's Maths Answers.

Literacy

This will be the last video lesson. Today, we're writing a fact box and doing a final edit.

Topic

R.E.

Watch and read the information on Humanism. How is this belief system similar to what you believe in? How is it different?

PSHE

Watch this video about Elijah, who was an Olympic Ambassador for the London 2012 Olympics. What's important to him about where he lives? What's important to you? How does Elijah celebrate where he lives? What would you say if you were an ambassador for Bristol?

Have a great day - we're looking forward to seeing you next week!

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.
