6th April
Hello everybody
Just a short email this week as it is the Easter holidays! Firstly, thanks to all of you who’ve been getting in touch with us using the yearsix@catherinewayte.swindon.sch.uk email address. It’s been great to see what you’ve been up to. With that in mind, here’s a link to a little video with some shout-outs for each of you who’ve got in touch.
It’s an unlisted video, so you’ll need the link to access it, and it will probably disappear within a week or so!
We’ve had a couple of people asking for more activities or work to do to maintain a bit of structure and stave off boredom, so here’s a little, but not too much. You do not need to do any work at the moment - it is the holidays! But if you want to, then here goes.
Firstly, on the MrShammasTeaches YouTube channel is the start of a sequence of work on ghost stories. If you haven’t done the werewolf activities yet, maybe give them a go first. Otherwise, get launched straight into ghost stories – and make sure you watch that video right to the end. There’s always a twist in a good ghost story. Here’s the link… (and if the link doesn't work quite yet, it will in the next few minutes!)
Here’s a maths problem for you to get your teeth into as well…
Here are ten ghostly spelling words that could come in useful in the next couple of weeks…
phantom, ghoul, poltergeist, spectre, transparent, translucent, ghostly, paranormal, supernatural, spirit
If you’re still looking for other things to do, why not enter one of the competitions on the Blue Kite learning platform?
Take care – and enjoy a bit of a break over Easter,
Mr Shammas and Mrs Tomlins
