Highlights From Home – Y5&6 – Tuesday 12th May 2020

Well done everybody on another fantastic day’s learning from home. Apologies that it’s a bit late but I went out for a long run this evening.

I hope that you enjoyed the maths Kahoot quiz that was created for both Y5 and Y6 today. My advice would be to always have a pencil / piece of paper handy just in case you need to do any quick workings out. I can change the amount of time given to answer each question, so I will always given you extra time on the questions that take more thought.

In English, congratulations to Theseus who was voted as the most heroic ancient Greek mythical warrior, beating Odysseus by 9 votes to 4. We had some excellent persuasive writing produced from it.

I hope that you enjoyed learning about the Battle of Marathon in History today and how the Athenians and Spartans were different in how they were ruled back in the Ancient Greek period.

Here’s today’s ‘Highlight’s From Home’.

It was really interesting to learn about the different gestation periods of animals in Science and to compare it to the average 9 months of a human. Here’s the answer to the question that I asked some of you to research…….

Here’s the rest of the ‘Highlights From Home’ for today.
