Year 6 remote learning week beginning 14^th February 2022

Hi Year 6,

Here is your remote learning for this week if you are isolating - remember, you don't have to complete any work at home if you feel poorly! Make sure your grown ups let the school office know if you are isolating. Mrs Large will check in with them via e-mail as soon as possible to check you are all ok, and to help you with your remote learning if needs be.

English

Please follow the link and complete one lesson per day. If you were isolating last week you may have already completed some of the lessons. That’s fine – just pick up from where you left off: https://classroom.thenational.academy/units/the-viewer-narrative-writing-159c

Maths

This week you are looking at shape and angles in Maths. Please complete one lesson per day from the following link (if you were isolating last week and have already completed some of the lessons, please just pick up from where you left off): https://classroom.thenational.academy/units/angles-and-shape-2e85

PSHER, Topic and Computing

Please choose one of the following lessons to complete each day

PSHER

Children’s Mental Health Week 2022:

We are celebrating Children’s Mental Health Week at the moment! This year’s theme is ‘Growing Together’. Mental Health is SO important. We are lucky at St Johns that we spend a lot of time learning about our emotions and self-regulation.

Lesson 1:

Here is a video introduction to Children’s Mental Health Week: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dySvIlAuiEk&t=13s

Can you make a poster advertising Children’s Mental Health Week? Imagine you have a friend who hasn’t heard of it. What would you include on the poster to get them excited about it?

Lesson 2:

Growth Stories

Human beings change and grow – we do it all the time and in many ways. Emotional growth is often a gradual process that happens over time, and sometimes we might feel a bit ‘stuck’. At these times, we are reminded of how much we need others in our lives to help us to keep growing.   

Here are some videos of some grown ups you might recognise talking about growth and the challenges they have faced and overcome. Watch the videos (you can choose 2 or 3 if you like) and think about what is said. If a grown up at home feels well enough, you might like to watch them together and talk about them.

Here is a little picture to remind you of the work you will have been doing in school based around ‘Zones of Regulation’. It may help you if you deal with any big emotions you may experience while you are off school poorly. Remember – it’s ok to not be ok! The self regulation tools you have learned at school will help, and it’s ALWAYS worth talking to a trusted adult about how you are feeling.

History

WW2:

Please follow the link to see your History lessons. If you were isolating last week just pick up where you left off. (Please complete 3 – one per day and then you have a day for each Computing lesson. You can of course complete more History lessons if you wish): https://classroom.thenational.academy/units/20th-century-conflict-world-war-ii-ce4e

Computing:

Please scroll down to the video on this link: https://www.childnet.com/resources/video-lessons/the-s-rule  

It is the first video in this series about the SMART rules for staying safe online – the ‘S’ rule. Watch the video and pause at the questions to see if you can answer them. Then show us what you’ve learned (make poster, write an information text, show your understanding via a cartoon... up to you!) 

If you were isolating last week and have already watched the first one, please watch the second one – the ‘M’ rule: https://www.childnet.com/resources/video-lessons/the-m-rule / and show what you have learned!

Remember, there are lots more great remote learning resources on the school website here: https://www.st-johns-pri.bham.sch.uk/whole-school-online-resources/
