Hi folks!! Hope you got on ok yesterday. We will have a few little glitches to iron out over these first few days (mostly caused by me!!). I will put answers to questions/test up on here a few days after you’ve been set them so don’t panic about that yet.

Here is Wednesday’s work…

Maths:

Page from Target Your Maths pg 156 test 1. Photo of sheet below…

English:

Cold task – write the opening chapter to a Science Fiction story. No cheating. I know what classes produce each year when I set this task and I absolutely know lots of children do NOT know what science fiction is. Then, tomorrow, we will talk about what Sci Fi really is!

Write for 30 minutes. Then. The next 30 mins should be used for editing, proof-reading and redrafting! You know that, in Year 6, we don’t accept incorrect use of capitals, missing punctuation, the dreaded comma splicing (google it if you can’t remember - although you should know by now as I go on about it all the time).

Please do not send me photos of your work each day as my email account at school can’t cope with the volume and will get blocked… As and when we are all back together, we can bring all our work in to show people, and I can then do a quick check myself.

Meanwhile, as well as the photo of the maths page, please find a photo of me from 3 years ago when I lost a competition for face painting. Can you guess which family were to blame?! I also attach a pic of Hattie and Arthur working with me in our kitchen this morning. Louis jumped up on a kitchen stool just as I took the photo as I think he wanted to join in with all the fun!?!?
