P6 November Home Learning
The activities in bold with an asterisk must be completed. All others activities are extension tasks. In addition, continue to discuss and read your
reading book each week and revise the spelling the patterns on the reverse of this sheet (using ideas from the ‘spell well activities’ sheet) Pupils will
have an opportunity to share their learning with other members of the class and display their work on the home learning wall on the dates highlighted
below.
Block 1
Sharing of Learning Opportunity –
w/b 14th November
*MATHS*
I am learning about improper fractions and mixed
numbers.
Fraction Dominoes – as explained in class
Use small rectangles of paper/card to create your own
set of improper fractions and mixed number dominoes.
Use these to make a loop of dominoes where the
improper fraction on one domino is equivalent to the
mixed number on another.
Please use coloured pen to make them look attractive.
We will be playing these in class so please be
prepared.
*JASS*
I am learning to be responsible and work towards
achieving the Bronze award by planning my time and
keeping my folder up to date.
As discussed in class, please decide on what you would
like to do for the sections ‘Get Active, Stay Active’
and ‘My Interests’. Choose which one you want to
start with - you might even be able to do some of
both.
Remember this is your responsibility so please keep
your folder up to date and bring it in each time we
share our learning.
Practise these activities
throughout the month:
Block 2

*HEALTH & WELLBEING (Bikeability)*
I am learning to cycle safely on the road.
Practise the lifesaver look, correct signalling when
turning left or right and remember to adopt the
primary position (not too near the gutter or too far
out). Please check your bike and helmet before you go
cycling.
LITERACY – TALKING & LISTENING
*Reading*
Read for Enjoyment every
day.
_______________________
*NUMERACY *
Please practise every week.
I am learning to say the number
before or after in a sequence.
Cool – Say the number before/ after in
4,5 and 6 times tables, (e.g. what is 5
more than 25?)
Hot – Say the number a tenth more/less
than, (e.g. what is a tenth more than 6.2?)
Spicy – Say the next 3 numbers
more/less than, in tenths, then in three
tenths, then own choice, (e.g.
What are the next 3 numbers going up in
3/10ths after 6.2?)
Make sure that you practise
counting backwards twice as often
as you practise counting forwards
Talk homework will be issued in class following
our writing sessions.
*WHOLE SCHOOL FOCUS*
Learning for Sustainability
Goal 13 of the Global Goals for Sustainability is to take
urgent action to tackle climate change. This month, take
some time to find out about climate change. What is climate
change? What causes it? What impact does it have? If you
have time, start to think about what you could do to make a
difference: perhaps there are things you could do at home or
school to save energy. Present your research and/or ideas
in any way you choose and bring it into school to share with
the class.
