Happy Friday, everyone.
We hope your week has been happy and healthy and you have some nice plans for the weekend. Thank you for continuing sending emails of your fantastic learning – it really brightens our day.
Y6 Maths – LO: solving problems using percentages
Today’s maths lesson is about solving two step problems that contain percentages. This means that you’ll have to do two calculations in order to solve each question. Do whatever you need to help you: draw pictures, write things down, use your mental strategies.
Click here to start today’s video. Get your pencil and paper out – be ready to pause the video when I say to!
R2s
- read the question carefully
- underline key information
- choose which operation to use eg + – x /
- answer the question
- check it makes sense
to start the video – you’ll need to pause it as we go through.
Y5&6 Reading – LO: Love of Reading
Y5&6 Design & Technology – LO: extreme designs
Today’s BBC Bitesize lesson is all about extreme designs and how they are tested, using elements of science and maths.
You need to read the article, watch the videos and complete either activity one or two – you decide!
If you haven’t got the materials at home (although, they can be made from weird and wonderful materials you might have lying around – be creative), you could always draw and label a design that you could make in future. It could be something talked about in the lesson or any other problem solving gadget you can think of!
Challenge
Have a read of this article all about more amazing DIY science experiments and have a go!
Please send in your amazing learning – we absolutely love it.

Hello Year 1s!
It’s the end of the first week and it has flown by for me! It’s just a shame that the sunshine seems to have disappeared. Thanks very much for letting me know how the children are getting on. I hope you have a great weekend and I’ll be with you again on Monday!

Y1 Reading – Thursday – statement sort – ANSWERS
Today’s learning:
Friday’s are a little bit different!
The reading lesson is what we call a Love of Reading session in school. I’d like you to sit down with a good book and enjoy reading together. You might share a book or your child may want to read independently. Talk about what you’re reading and ask some questions.
The maths lesson comes from the BBC Daily Lessons. Each Friday they have some Friday Challenges. There’s only a couple for Year 1 so feel free to look at the Year 2 ones as well. The idea of these is that you work collaboratively as a family to solve them. Click here for the link.
Our final Friday lesson is a new art project about British artist, Andy Goldsworthy. Click here for a video which introduces the project.
