Thursday Book Swap!

Good morning Year 6!

Hope you had a good day of learning? I am looking forward to seeing some of you later in the book swap! Remember it is between 1-3pm and it should only take a few minutes. Come to the office and I will hand over your book. If you want to return any books, bring them too! Remember to keep a 2metres distance from others who might be there too!

Thank you for all your lovely work handed in! I have uploaded them onto purple mash so that you can all see! Keep sending them in to admin@virginia.towerhamlets.sch.uk 
Take a look at the work sent in  by Aqilah and Kalid and Quinell! 

Thank you for all your hard work on Thespina and Scorpidon. I like the endings that you have suggested! Take a look at Aqilah's ending! 

Let's finish the final part of the story...

How did you get on with the maths? Remember you can use purple mash to discuss your ideas like you would in class!  This next problem is great! Take a look!

How can we solve this? Let's look at what we already know. 

1.  On one side there are 5 barrels and a 7kg weight.
2. On the other side there are 3 barrels, a 7 kg weight, two 12kg weights and a 2kg weight.
3. They both weigh equally
4. Both sides start with three barrels at the bottom. They both have 7kg weights.
5. We have two barrels extra on one side and then a total of 26kg on the other.

I hope this will guide you to working out the weight of one barrel! If you need help begin a post on purple mash- we can discuss it together! 

If you manage to solve it, create a new one for us to try! You can send it in to me or upload it on purple mash. Good Luck!

What did you find out about the Ancient Greek Olympics? I hope you enjoyed the video! How are the olympics celebrated today? This year the Olympics would have been in Tokyo.
Find out about the modern  olympic games. Research the countries that take part, the sports, the athletes and any surprising moments in history.  You can present you research in any way that you wish: leaflet, on purple mash,  pictures, poster or a video diary!
Here are a few websites you can use:

Thats it for today! I hope you enjoy your day of learning and remember to hand in any work! I can't wait to see the work you have completed!  Have a great day!
