Daily Learning Blog – Thursday, 11^th June

Good morning everyone. Welcome back to another day of learning and fun. I present to you your learning opportunities for the day:

English

LO: Using a semi-colon

• https://www.bbc.co.uk/bitesize/articles/zkdr92p
• Remember: semi-colons are used in place of a conjunction, full stop, or comma. They are used to join two shorter, similar sentences together.
• Watch the video, and use your understanding of a semi-colon to complete the character creation activities.
• Write all your work in your home learning book.

Maths

LO: Rounding decimals

• https://www.bbc.co.uk/bitesize/articles/zm6g9mn
• When rounding decimals, it’s very similar to rounding hole numbers to the nearest 10.
• Watch the video, and complete the 3 activities (2 worksheets and 1 interactive game)

Art

LO: Using computer software to create art

• There has been a ‘2 do’ assigned to you on Purple Mash.
• Please create several works of art using a variety of methods.
• You may save them and import them into another art style
• I’d like you to create 3 pieces of art, one each of the following theme:
  • Happiness
  • Rain
  • Victory
• Think about the colours or symbols you might want to include. You don’t necessarily need to include any specific images – you might simple have colours or shaped that represent the themes. Be creative!

Music

LO: Tone and pitch when singing

• https://www.bbc.co.uk/bitesize/articles/z44x6v4
• Watch the videos, and learn about how tone and pitch can change how a song sounds and feels.
• Complete activity 1, and if you are confident, activity 2.
• Explore the resources of activity 3, and see if there are any tasks or resources you would like to try out – no pressure though!

That’s all for today. One more day until the weekend! Bye for now.
