Hello to my amazing Year 6 class! I hope you are all well and keeping safe. It was fantastic to see so many of you on our Zoom call last week. Remember if you have an idea for our next zoom call, make sure you email your idea over to me before Tuesday 2nd March. If you do send me an idea via email, it MUST come from an adult’s email address. Our next Zoom meeting will be on Wednesday 3rd March at 1:30pm, I hope to see you all there.
I can see from all the fantastic work I am receiving that you are all working incredibly hard and I am so proud of you. Remember, you need to be submitting at least one piece of work to me once a week so I can have a look at your incredible work, provide feedback and post your work on our Learning Gallery. This will be your last week of online learning, you can do this Year 6! I am so excited that we will all be together again on Monday 8th March and can’t wait to have you all back in the classroom.

To warm up ready for today’s PE lesson, I would like you to complete the Just Dance activity below. Once you have completed the Just Dance activity, can you practice the two different 8 count Greek sequences we learnt last week. Below I have put the video from last week’s Topic blog so you can re-watch this if you have forgotten the two 8 count sequences we learnt last week. Once you have practiced the dance sequences from last week, I would like you to create your own 8 count Greek dance sequence. Your dance sequence needs to focus on the movement of the following body parts: legs and feet. Once you have created your sequence, can you practise performing it to the Greek music below?
Extra challenge: Can you now combine the two 8 count sequences we learnt last week and your own 8 count sequence you have generated today and perform all the sequences in time with the Greek music above?
