This week marks Maths Week Scotland! As such we are asking you to have a look at the Maths Week Homework grid as the main focus this week!
Reading
Children should complete the characters and settings task in the reading journal. The children should find a range of different ways that the author has described both the characters in the book and the setting. For setting children could look at how the physical places i.e. homes, streets, forests etc., atmposphere or weather have been described.
Spelling
This week children will be learning how to use the ‘ing’ suffix in class. Children should practice the following words at home by completing one of the spelling activities from the grid.
Maths
This week in class we will be moving on to working with simple multiplication and divsion. To support this children should complete the Multiplication Wheels activity stuck into their homework jotters. The children should multiply the number in the middle of the circle by the number on the inner ring, as shown on the example below. 
It’s Maths Week this week! Each pupil has a Maths week challenge sheet in their folder. Please complete three of the options fo Thursday.
Stuck to this sheet is a login for Sumdog in order to participate in an online maths game challenge. This will run until Wednesday if you would like to take part!
Education City homework tasks are no longer sequenced so if you were having difficulty with the activities refusing to work, please do not fret. You should be able to access some of them now and do what will work on your device.

for checking in on us!
Here are some highlight of the month of August in P6:
Enjoying interactive games on the promethean board and creating models with 3D objects.
I can create a picture or model using a wide variety of 3D objects or 2D shapes
I have explored and can talk about a range of 3D objects and 2D shapes – 3D objects
Being super messy creating earth, moon and sun. Exploring the rotation of the Earth around itself and around the sun!
By safely observing and recording the sun and moon at various times, I can describe their patterns of movement and changes over time. I can relate these to the length of a day, a month and a year.

Having fun in PE with hoops and the parachute!
As I encounter new challenges and contexts for learning, I am encouraged and supported to demonstrate my ability to select, adapt and apply movement skills and strategies, creatively, accurately and with control.
While working and learning with others, I improve my range of skills, demonstrate tactics and achieve identified goals.

Enjoying reward time with friends!
I know that friendship, caring, sharing, fairness, equality and love are important in building positive relationships. As I develop and value relationships, I care and show respect for myself and others.
Please remember our Science
to the Royal Observatory on Tuesday 25/9 before lunch and check in on
