Year 6 Home School Blog

Hello Year 6
I hope you are all well. I am really missing not seeing you all and I thought we could use this blog to share news, have chats and it can be a place where you can contact me with any queries about your work or anything else you want to talk about.
So I look forward to hearing from you over the coming weeks and remember even though we are not all together we are still Year 6 and we are here for each other.
Speak soon
Much Love
Mrs Baalla

      Miss I don’t understand what we have to do on espresso.

      • kbaalla says:

        Hello Carlton
        Lovely to hear from you. I hope you are well and not too bored and you are keeping happy and well. These are the sites I set work on;
        Mathletics: I set 10 tasks on Monday, Wednesday and Friday. I can only set new tasks when you have completed the previous 10.
        TT Rockstars: You should be using this as much as possible with a view to becoming a Rock Hero before we return to school . !!!
        Busy Things: There are at least 17 varied tasks on Busy Things which you access on MyUSO.im. The tasks won’t go when you do them but I will see you have completed them.
        Classroom Secrets: I would follow the Home learning Timetable if you can. As it has a new maths task, grammar task, comprehension and other fun activities to do each day. You can also do the work under Year 6. These tasks won’t go when you do them.
        BBC Bitesize: Has daily lessons and tasks each day with links to worksheets.
        White Rose Maths: Has extra maths work you might want to do.
        Espresso: Is there for you to browse and enjoy.
        Myuso.im : lots of resources including coding.

        These are my suggestions for you to use. Do what you can. Please contact me if you need anything else or any other help.
        with love Mrs Baalla

        We are fine and I recently received a login for my mums school’s online library, so I have many books to read. My mum is renovating our house, she is going to paint our room blue! I also found some animation apps which are quite easy to use (KineMaster and FlipaClip) and I’ve been spending quite some time on those, I recommend them if we do ICT. That’s all that has been happening so far, I’ll be sure to keep you updated!
        Love, Ola❤️

        • kbaalla says:

          Hi Ola Great to hear from you and lovely to see you are keeping yourself busy with reading and ICT.I look forward to seeing your ICT creations when we are back together. You mum is a very busy lady. I hope you enjoy your ‘new room’. I hope you have enough work to keep you busy and you will make use of BBC Bitesize, White Rose Maths and and Classroom Secrets kids. Let me know what you think of them. I will give the Access passowrds to The kids section on Classroom secrets on our school jotter shortly.

            Hi Ola
            Lovely to hear from you. I hope you are well. I loved your poem and I have seen the activities you have completed.

      Hello Lexi
      I hope you are well and all your family are keeping safe and well . I am missing you all very much and I really hope we will all be back together soon. It is nice being my family but I do miss Year 6 very much. I hope you’re not too bored at home!!! I’m sure you are keeping busy. What are you up to?
      Spread the word with anyone you are in contact with that this blog is a place you can contact me and each other and I would love to hear from you all.

      • cotta says:

        I’ve been calling Abigail and Shannon all day everyday which has been keeping me busy but of course the homework has kept me very busy!<3

        • kbaalla says:

          I am so glad you and the girls are keeping in contact. I hope they are well. Please send them my love and tell them I would love to hear from them. I hope the homework is not too stressful. To be honest as long as we all come back happy and healthy that is all that truly matters to me. Do what you can. There will be some days you won’t feel like doing anything and that is fine and then on others you might be grateful for something to keep your mind focused and busy. It is like that for adults as well so don’t worry.
          I hope to hear from you again soon.
          love
          Mrs Baalla

            Look forward to hearing from you again soon

    • kbaalla says:

      Hi Lexi.
      I hope you are well and had a nice Easter ! I would complete the original work first and then look to using the other resources. I would like everyone to make use of BBC Bitesize, White Rose Maths and and Classroom Secrets kids as they have some good resources and we just don’t know how long we will be off. Let me know what you think of them. I will give the Access passowrds to The kids section on Classroom secrets on our school jotter shortly.
      I look forward to hearing from you again.
      love Mrs Baalla

  17. klolm says:

    HI, Mrs Baalla i have a question about busy things is it set daily or weekly

    • kbaalla says:

      Hello Michal
      I hope you are well and you had a nice Easter I will look at Busy things at least once a week (maybe more)and see what activities are completed. I can set as many as people want, so you let me know when you want new tasks (in case I dont’ set enough for you). I would like everyone to make use of BBC Bitesize, White Rose Maths and and Classroom Secrets kids as they have some good resources and we just don’t know how long we will be off. Let me know what you think of them. By now you should be able to access The kids section on Classroom secrets. Any problems let me know.
      love Mrs Baalla

  18. cotta says:

    miss I don’t Know my log in for the online work.

    • kbaalla says:

      Hi Lexi
      I think the log in you are referring to is for classroom secrets. To access this work you log into Classroom Secrets and go to the KIDS sections.
      User name 372510Lexi
      Password : is youe TT rockstars and Mathletics password.
      You don’t need login for whiterose maths or BBc bitesize

      To access Busy Things it is the same 304 password you are using to access this blog.
      I hope that answers your query.

    Dear Mrs Baalla,
    I am unsure of what to do in the target maths as I have complete reviews and some of the extention section
    I hope you are fine and i hope to be back at school soon.

    Best regards
    Michal k and his family

    p.s When are we returning to school , will S.A.T.S happen when we return , and if so, will boosters start

    • kbaalla says:

      Hello Michal
      Lovey to hear from you. I hope you are your family are still keeping well. We might get some news on Sunday from the Prime Minister about when schools will return so we have to wait till then. There will be on SATS in fact if we had been doing them they would be starting next Monday. We will still have an end of term assessment to complete but not official SATS. With regard to boosters, it is unlikely they will return but you never know!!!
      With regard to Target maths, I would continue completing the extension sections. If you would like more maths work I could email work direct to your mum. Let me know if you would like this and I will phone you and get her email address. I hope you saw my letter to Y6 yesterday which outlines some more activities to be completing. Thank you for your continued hard work. I’m very impressed by your efforts.
      Take care for now
      Love
      Mrs Baalla

      Hello Oliwier
      I wish I could say yes with confidence but I can’t as the situation is so uncertain at the moment. All I can promise you is I will make sure we have a prom even if it means you all have to come back one Friday night when you have started your secondary school.
      We just have to wait and see.
      Take care

        • kbaalla says:

          Hello Carlton
          Thank you for your message. On my system it shows you have not completed any of the reading eggs tasks and in total I have set 5. Number 6 has been set today. Please get you, mum, to email if you think there is a problem with the system. I can see you have started to use Busy Things (lots more to complete) and you have accessed Classroom secrets. Are you doing this every day? Also try and complete 10 mathletics tasks on a Monday, Wednesday and Friday.
          Keep working hard
          Mrs Baalla

  27. ferrc says:

    miss do we need to complete all the tasks on the 26 pages in classroom secrets

    • kbaalla says:

      Hello Carlton. As of next week I am going to set everyone tasks on Classroom secrets which they must complete. For now you are to choose at least a grammar, comprehension and maths task to complete daily. You can complete more if they are easy.
      I will set out a schedule for everyone to follow over the next few days.
      Take care
      Mrs Baalla

      • ferrc says:

        miss are you not setting work on busy things

        • kbaalla says:

          Hi Carlton
          I hope you are well. I didn’t set new work last week as I took it as your half-term but until you have completed ALL the tasks already on Busy Things I am not going to set any more at the moment. You still have quite a few to complete. Today a letter is going on the jotter which outlines what you need to complete every day online. Well done for being one of the best users of classroom secrets. I have set tasks for this week.I would suggest 1 reading, grammar and numeracy per day. Just make sure they are all completed by the end of the week. If you have any problems please let me know.
          Love
          Mrs Baalla

  28. ferrc says:

    miss I can can not see what is done or not done on busy things

    • kbaalla says:

      Hi Carlton
      I would love to remove the tasks you have done but I have to keep them on till most of the class have completed them. I would suggest you start completing from the earliest tasks I set as there are quite a few left for you to do. I’m hoping by next week that I can start removing some of the tasks and setting a few new ones.
      Thank you for your continued efforts.
      Kind regards
      Mrs Baalla

      Hello Shannon
      It is so lovely to hear from you. You sound like you have enjoyed your time at home but I am pleased to see how excited you are to return to school. I am sure you will love being back and it will be even better when the rest of year 6 return in a few weeks. I miss you very much and can’t wait to see you and hear all your news. Thank you for trying hard to keep up with the online tasks. Try and do them all including Reading Eggs which is very useful for literacy work.
