Your Home Learning for This Week
Thursday Maths sheets
Happy Friday - Thank you to the Year 6 Owl who spotted that the Thursday maths sheets were missing yesterday on our Thursday page. I have attached them after the video!
School Day
Hello, It's school day again. We have all enjoyed our day in school this week - we hope and it definitely felt a little calmer and we knew what to do. If you haven't joined us this week, here are your school day activities. Remember that School Day is our additional day each week - the day that we do at school but you can enjoy it from the comfort of your desk, make sure you have time for snack, break and a spot of lunch!
Reading: Please could you read for an hour today? This can be your Bug Club Book or your own choice of reading book. We think that you have probably read all of your Holes chapters this week as there wasn't as much to read, but if not then do please finish up to the end of Chapter 10.
Maths: You should now have your Theme Park ready to get up and running. You may have spent all of your £500,000 or have some left over, just in case - your 'rainy day fund'! It is now time to find out how much it is going to cost you to run, tickets costs and how much you take each day. Here are your tasks to complete:
1. Complete your poster to advertise your theme park. You may also want to design some of your rides.
2. Have a look a the powerpoint Week 2 – Theme Park Maths
3. Complete Task 2. In this task, you will need to have a look at the amount of each attraction you have in your park and work out how much it would cost to run each of them for a day using the table provided.
4. Complete Task 3. You will need to work out what category your theme park fits into. Once you have worked this out, you can decide how much you will charge per ticket based on the maximum amount your category of theme park can charge.
5. Complete Task 4. In this task, we have told you how many people will arrive at your theme park each day. Multiply these visitors by the price of your tickets to work out the ticket income for your first month. You may use a calculator!
PSHE and Transition to secondary school.
1. In school we are looking at different games we can play in the playground that involve no physical contact or use of equipment (apart from hopscotch)
Can you think of any ideas or activities that you can play at home in the garden that don’t involve physical contact or use equipment? You can try playing these at home.
2. We will be looking at questions about secondary school and moving on. So far we have only had a few questions sent in so if you have any questions, worries or concerns then please email them in so that we can use them in our discussion sessions.
Have a good day and then have a lovely weekend
