Maths 

Today we have continued visualising 3d shapes.  Today we investigated nets.  This is where you open out a 3d shape into a flat template.

Have a look at these nets to see if you can match them up and picture what they would make. See if you can name the 3d shapes.

nets for home

Today we focused on cubes of nets.  Have a look at the sheet below can you picture which nets would fold up to make a cube?  Place a tick or a cross in the table to say if you think they would make a cube.  We used clixi to check, I know you won’t have this at home so just try your best to picture it.

If you are struggling you can try this support sheet.

You may prefer to try to make these 3d shapes using the nets.   There are lots here to choose from – some are very tricky and you need to be super at cutting! Don’t cut the tabs off!

English 

Today we looked at another example of an instructional text.

Again I’d like you to use the checklist to see if you can spot these features in the text.

You will need a range of colours and maybe even need to put bubbles round parts etc if you don’t have enough colours for all those features.

PE

You may have heard that I am very excited to have become a certified Les Mills Born to Move instructor over the summer and I have been very excited to introduce this class to our Y6 group as part of our fitness focus.  It is a great fitness class that combines dance, martial arts, boxing training and yoga and the children have been loving it.  Les Mills do provide some free Born to Move classes for you to try at home so if you are feeling good, clear some space and give it a go – maybe you can even get your adults at home involved too!  Warn them it’s hard work though!
