Tuesday 31st March – Year 6

English:

Diary writing

One day, children will learn about the time that the world shut because of Corona virus and they will want to know true life stories of the people that lived through it. They will want to know about the difficulties (not be able to go to school) and the funny parts (not being able to buy toilet paper).

 

I want you to write a diary entry of a day that you have had so far. This could be about a day before schools closed or after.

Things you might want to include:

– What home learning did you do?

– If you were in school, how many other children were there?

– Did you have your daily exercise? What was it?

– Did you have to face the supermarkets? Which shelves were empty?

– Did you watch Boris’s daily announcement? What were the key messages?

– Did you do anything especially different? i.e. clap for NHS workers, wash your hands before going in to a place, do an online virtual event.

In the comments box, copy one paragraph from your diary.

 

Maths:

Age old problems:

  • My age this year is a multiple of 8. Next year it will be a multiple of 7. How old am I?
  • Last year my age was a square number. Next year it will be a cube number. How old am I? How long must I wait until my age is both a square number and a cube number?
  • My Mum was 27 when I was born. 8 years ago she was twice as old as I shall be in 5 years’ time. How old am I now?

Watch the following clip:

What other information can you find out about Langar and the Langar Hall?

Write an explanation about how and why they are used.

    Dear diary,
    Before we went on lockdown, me and my mum went shopping for essential items and everyone was rushing around and trying to get everything off of the shelves! I even saw a couple of people grabbing to shopping trollies just for themselves. People are saying the main thing that was being taken off of the shelves was toilet paper, but it was everything, such as: baked beans; caned food; frozen food and lots more.

    Dear diary,
    I still did everything the same and I survived the corona virus because I was a kid. Well when we were in lockdown it was so boring because we couldn’t see our friends.

    Dear diary,
    Before it was anouced that we are going into lock down we went to all sorts of shops (during the afternoon) there was no: toilet paper,dry pasta,rice or sometimes even health essentials.
    We found out that in the mo ring there’s more stuff but you had to go thorough long lines even going from one shop to another.

    As for school work we had school blogs and got packs from school including:maths tests, E gljsh tests and some colouring sheets.
    At that time no one had a clue when we are going to go back if if we are going to came back to the same class we were in when we left.

    paragraph 2
    Dear diary,
    We are still in lockdown and only a maximum of people are out in my neighbourhood ! I have got used to being inside and doing work, but sometimes I drive myself mad. Even though I wasn’t there on the last day of school I still have to do work on my laptop (like I am now).I have a lot of entertainment surrounding me ,but my eyes are just stuck to the screen, but one thing I like about going on my laptop, is that I challenging myself to type quick and I am getting better day by day.
