Year 6 preparing and tasting fruit sangria. What a treat.
We have been considering which famous North East inventor is the most significant. Although many inventors hail from these parts, George Stephenson and Joseph Swan have arguably had the greatest impact!
Here Alyssa presents her balanced argument. Which side do you support? Use the instrumental version below to practise. Good luck! 1. See him alying on a bed of straw; draughty stable with an open door, Mary cradling the babe she bore; The prince of glory is his name. Refrain Oh, now carry me to Bethlehem to see the Lord appear to men; Just as poor as was the stable then, The prince of glory when he came. 2. Star of silver sweep across the skies, show where Jesus in the manger lies. Shepherds swiftly from your stupor rise to see the Saviour of the world. Refrain (See above) 3. Angels, sing agan the song you sang, bring God's glory to the heart of man; Sing the Bethl'hem's little baby can be salvation to the soul. Refrain (See above) 4. Mine are riches from thy poverty, From thine innocence, eternity; Mine, forgiveness by thy death for me, Child of sorrow for my joy. Refrain twice (See above) We have researched significant North East inventors (Swan, Stephenson etc.), but the North East also has a significant sporting history. One of the most famous of these is Sir Bobby Robson. Here are some links to start your research: http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/2009/jul/31/sir-bobby-robson-timeline-factfile His charity work: http://www.sirbobbyrobsonfoundation.org.uk/ What other sources will you use to research him? Which are primary resources and which are secondary? After our initial work on area and perimeter, we will look at these areas in more detail. Here are the links to prepare yourself: Monday / Tuesday http://www.bgfl.org/bgfl/custom/resources_ftp/client_ftp/ks2/maths/perimeter_and_area/index.html http://www.funbrain.com/cgi-bin/poly.cgi - Gets you remembering which is which? http://www.math-play.com/Decimals-Jeopardy/decimals-jeopardy.html - Want to win the quiz - here is your chance! And because I like it so much, here is the Perimeter Rap again! I wonder if we could do an alternative Area version? One of our pupils created a class rap for Length x Width = Area!
