Year 6 Home Learning

Hello Year 6,

We hope that you are all well and enjoying the beautiful weather that we are having!

By now I am sure that you are breaking your days up by having a look at some of the tasks we set you last week (reattached at the bottom if you need another copy). It has been wonderful to see some of you creating tasks of your own too – you’re very inventive! Feel free to magpie each others’ ideas and ask if you need any help…we are here to support you.

Please make sure you are uploading messages or pictures if you can on to Seesaw – we would love to see what you are all getting up to!

Keep safe and keep smiling,

Miss Killick and Miss Walters

Activities

If you are looking for extra activities to complete alongside your other tasks, why not try these:

10 Day Drawing Challenge: draw something using only your favourite colour (shading is the key) and describe it using a synopsis. Let your imagination go wild.
High Five: draw around your hand, add pictures and words of things you like, to each finger of the hand. Challenge yourself to turn any negative thoughts into positive ones.
Get outside: find something in your garden that you haven’t seen before (it could be an insect or a plant, etc.). Find out what it is, then create a fact book. How many new things can you discover in a week.
Poetry: go on a metaphor and simile walk; this could be a walk around your garden or house. Turn these ideas into a poetry masterpiece.

Enjoy 🙂

Mrs O’Reilly used pepper to highlight the importance of washing your hands properly.

Over the last few weeks, we’ve all learnt a lot more about the importance of washing our hands. In order to show children the importance, in a way they would understand, we conducted an experiment. First, we poured pepper into a dish filled with water and asked the child to swirl their finger around. Naturally, when they pulled their fingers out of the water it was covered in pepper. Next, the children placed some antibacterial soap onto their fingers, miraculously, when they dipped their fingers back into the water, the pepper fled, creating a ‘safe zone’ around their fingers. The children were in awe and now have a much better understanding.
