Today’s learning…

Click here for your task.

Y6 Maths – LO: arithmetic

Later on in the week, we’re going to do another Arithmetic Treasure Hunt but this time I want to get you guys involved! Have a go at these questions.
1. 7 x 2 x 10
2. one eighth + four eighths
3. 645 divided by 5
4. 10 twelfths – five twelfths
5. 0.5 x 100
Then, what I want you to do is, keeping the style of the question the same, change the numbers so that you come up with your own questions. We’ve done this before in class. You need to work them out so you have a mark scheme to go with them. Finally, email me your questions either just written down or even better would be to film yourself asking the question. (You could even film a short answer clip, too!) The deadline for questions is Wednesday evening (13.05.20). Thanks!
Challenge
Email me with your ideas for the treasure hunt! What could people find in their home? How could we make it more fun or a bit trickier?
Y5&Y6 Geography – LO: trade and economic activity
 
In class, we’ve learnt about the trade and economic activity of counties in England. Today, we’re going international!
First, watch this video (https://screencast-o-matic.com/watch/cYhXX5gkYB).
Then, click here (https://www.bbc.co.uk/bitesize/articles/zfcnf4j) and scroll down to access today’s tasks: activity one, two and three (just page two – the one with two stars in the top left corner). Be careful not to scroll down too far on activity three because the answers are on there, too! You can mark your answers when you’ve done.
Challenge
For ten golden tickets, spot the grammatical error written in today’s learning.

Y5&Y6 Reading – LO: FirstNews

Today’s task is simple: read!

This week, there will be reading tasks based on this copy of FirstNews.

Your task today is to read, for at least half an hour, this copy of FirstNews and familiarise yourself with it!

When reading you could discuss any articles that caught your interest with members of your household. You could get in contact with friends and talk about what you have read, too!

Again, we would love to hear from you – email us! oliwain@spherefederation.org / jenwilson@spherefederation.org
