Rapid Writing Challenge

Today we are taking some key details from

the prompt below and turning them in to a

piece of free writing. We have used these

prompts in class, and you need to make sure

you include (and elaborate on) the key

details while writing in the style listed:

Remember: Clever writers ‘show, don’t tell’.

Show that your orangutan is handsome and

loves painting murals without telling your

readers “there was a handsome orangutan

who loved painting murals...”

We are continuing to look at 24-hour time and

the converting between the am and pm time

units.

The above timeline shows each hour in the am

and pm, matched with it’s 24-hour equivalent,

Using this table, and recap on yesterday’s

video or lessons (go back on the learning from

home page and click on Thursday’s program).

Today complete week sheet 1, you need to

convert all the 12 hour times for the security

guard to 24-hour time, then calculate the

changes in in time based the information

given. Finally complete the television guide

with 24-hour times and the length of each

program.

Specialist Catch-up For today’s Inquiry session you have the

chance to complete any of the Specialist

activities you have not done so far this

week. These are found directly under the

Grade 6 daily learning tasks on the

Bellbridge website.

Specialist activities for grade 6 are Auslan,

PE, Art and STEM. You should be attempting

to fit one of these in each day after your

other learning tasks. We know sometimes is

it hard to fit them all in so today is to catch

up with those activities you have not

completed.

Some weeks we may tell you to complete a

certain activity for this session. However,

for today you may choose the order of the

Specialist activities you are working on.

Remember you can answer today’s questions

while you read the chapter or at the end.

Don’t forget to respond using RACE.

For example: It was always like this. All he

wanted to do was paint, but he could barely

get a moment of peace. As soon as he woke

up, the other orangutans would line up and

try to say something cute, clever or funny...

They were all so boring! He didn’t like boring

– he liked beautiful, and so he must paint.

Do we still know they are handsome?

Do we still know they are an orangutan?

Do we still know they love to paint?

Yes, yes and yes! But we described our key

details instead of just stating them.

You should be aiming for half-a-page of

writing in an exercise book or one creative

PowerPoint slide on your netbook, using

strong sentences and proper paragraphs to

elaborate on the key details from the

prompt.

Each Specialist subject has a folder in our

Teams classroom. You are expected to

upload any work required to the correct

specialist folder for that week. Make you

have your full name on the work when you

save it.

Too hard? Too hard? Too hard? Too hard?

Complete each question as best that you can.

Read along with your teacher by listening to

your chapter’s audio.

If you’re not sure how to describe a day in the life of your main character today, just write any type of story that includes all of the other key details about them from the prompt.

You will be converting 12-hour to 24-hour

time today. Revisit how to do this from

yesterday’s video and looked at the example

on the top of your worksheet 2.

(Remember 24-hour time has 4 digits with

nothing separating them).

You can ask a question to your classroom

teacher in Teams or to your specialist

through chat, if you are unsure.

Too easy? Too easy? Too easy? Too easy?

Make sure that you have followed RACE.

Check that you have included multiple pieces

of evidence to support your answer and that

you have explained the evidence.

Today is all about creating complex

sentences in your writing. Remember: That’s

a sentence with one independent clause and

at least one other dependent clause.

For example: Despite being the most eligible

bachelor in the jungle, he was only interested

in painting.

Today you will be looking at elapsed time of a

stop watch. Stopwatches measure time to

within hundredths of a second, and before

digital clocks needed to show parts of a

second using analogue faces.

Read through each question and complete

worksheet 3.

Ensure observations are detailed. Complete

to the best of your ability.

Don’t have _________? Don’t have _________? Don’t have _________? Don’t have _________?

Don’t have access to your class novel? Respond to one of the following questions for your own independent reading book. Make sure you use text evidence in your response. - Describe one event that has happened and why it is significant for your book. - What do you predict will happen next in your book and why do you think that? - Write a summary of the main events from the chapter you have read today.

No extra materials or resources are required

for this lesson. You can complete this on your

netbook in a Word document, or in an

exercise book if you have equipment at

home.
