Hi everyone,
There is lots to keep you busy this week. I hope you are still working hard at home. Remember you need to keep practicing your math arithmetic and English skills so you stay sharp and can work quickly and accurately. TT Rockstars and Top Marks will help you with rapid recall of number facts.
As part of Transition to Secondary School, Primary Schools across schools in Bradford, are focusing on a book called Boy 87 for our English work. I am delighted that you have all collected your book and hope that you are enjoying it as much as we are in school. Your English work this week is based on the book so make sure you are keeping up with your reading. It also counts as a book towards the summer reading challenge. I hope you have all signed up and are adding your books as you go. There is still time to join in with the Silly Squad here. The libraries are also beginning to open up again soon so you will be able to return your books and collect your Silly Squad pack.
There is also an Ordinate Survey map activity. Can you name all the symbols you might find on a map? Check your answers but you can also use this to revise before you try the activity.
Good luck with Mrs Walton's Friday quiz 4 this week with your friends or family. It is lots of fun and we think there might be some high scores.
As always, Twitter what you have been up to and let me see how hard you are all working. Remember to do something everyday.
Miss you all that are still at home. Stay alert, take care and keep washing those hands.
Miss Allen
You can find some new Math and English work below. Pick and choose what you would like to complete.
Poetry based on The Cave of Curiosity which we looked at in lessons a the beginning of the year. Follow the instructions to write a poem about The City of Silence.
Revise your GPS. Can you explain all these terms in the revision grid and give an example?
Find some Math puzzles here. Try and do them without the calculator first! I bet you can.
Home Learning
Please complete some of the activities from the Home Learning Grids. Aim for at least one from
each area of learning. You can still do any of the activities from the previous grids which can be found below. Remember to choose what you will enjoy and you do not have to do it all. Don't forget to Twitter your work as I'd love to see what you are doing. Purple Mash has lots of 2Do's for you to access and you can leave me a comment about what you have been up too or how you found the work. Then I can reply which is a great way to keep in touch and have a mini chat.
