English

We are going to carry on with our non-chronological reports. Think about the different sections you have researched and planned for (such as appearance, habitat, diet, fun facts, etc.). Using the planning document you completed on Tuesday, can you write the next two paragraphs. Think about including your scientific language and trying to sound like an expert! Which AP features do you think would work well in these sections? Once you've written it, read your work allowed to someone at home - do you sound convincing? What could you change to make it sound even more formal?

Maths

We are going to carry on with our work around Ratio and Proportion. Today like yesterday, please visit 

https://whiterosemaths.com/homelearning/year-6/ where you can access 5 lessons! Can you do a couple more of the activities today. Over the next few days, please watch the videos, have a go at the activities (in your pink exercise book) and then check your answers. You can still use MyMaths if required to practise some more ratio work.

PE

At 9am each morning this week, Joe Wicks will be streaming a PE session to keep us all active and moving. It will be a great way to start your day and I am sure your family would love to join in too! If you were having a lie-in, then you will be able to find the session on Joe Wicks' youtube channel and join in at any point!

You can find them here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCAxW1XT0iEJo0TYlRfn6rYQ

Spellings

Today, test a grown up on the spellings set for this week. Can you spot any 'deliberate' mistakes they made? Can you correct them? 

Science

We have been looking at evolution and adaption in science in recent weeks and I want you to see if you can work out why certain animals live where they do in our wonderful world. Bringing us to the title of our topic: why do penguins live there? 

In the middle of a page in your pink workbook, draw an animal of your choice (it has to be living now) it could be anything, all you need to know is what type of habitat it lives in. Once you have drawn the animal think about what it looks like and what characteristics it has and how might that be perfect for living where it does. I have had a go in the document below, the reasons why it lives there are the most important bit.
