Mrs Winterbourne's Group:
A very BIG hello to my lovely maths group – I’m missing you lots.
I hope you are all working hard and keeping safe. I thought I would put together some maths for you to do so that you can keep up the excellent progress you were making at school. I’ll start with a bit of revision. Let me know how you get on.
Remember to do a section in your times tables books every day – you should be getting really good at these by now!

Task 1: Watch the video by Beth Calverley and answer the following questions about it.
- In your opinion, what’s interesting and unique about the way that Beth wrote this poem?
- Do you agree/disagree with what the other children in Year 6 at Hannah More said about what they wish for Bristol? Explain why.
- What is different about the way a typewriter works compared to your computer/laptop/tablet? Use Google to research what typewriters do if you’re not sure.
Questions about the poem
- Were there any words in Beth’s poem that you didn’t understand? E.g. amidst. Research what they mean and write below.
- Beth’s poem only rhymes some of the time. Can you identify 4 different rhyming pairs she uses?I have included one example, can you think of 4 of your own?
Day and way - “And green is bright against the grey”
What do you think Beth is talking about when she writes this? - “Everyone’s door is a special shade, our characters layered in the paint”
What do you think Beth means when she says that our characters are layered in the paint (of the door colour)?
Task 2: Your turn!
Have a go at writing your own poem about Bristol! Remember, it doesn’t have to rhyme if you don’t want it to – not all poems rhyme!

Mr Cook and Miss Skinner will be ringing round each child in Year 6 every Thursday morning between 9am and 12pm. Your families will receive a phonecall between these hours from an unknown phone number. Please try your best to answer it!
