Keep checking back weekly to find out about what the children have been up to in year 6.
We certainly do!
This week the children have returned to school enthused about our new theme: The Americas. In English, at the beginning of the week, the children took on either the role of a travel agent or the role of a customer who was looking to book a holiday to Saint Lucia. Children in both roles learnt lots about the Caribbean island of Saint Lucia whilst having lots of fun.
This spring term, year 6 were asked to complete a spring bingo challenge. There were a number of homework ideas they could choose that were worth a set amount of points per activity. They had to complete enough challenges that warranted 60 points.
This week, the children in year 6 have been learning all about blogging.
After becoming biome experts last week, our year 6s have been showing off their knowledge by turning their recent research into a class display.
Do you know what subject biomes come under? Do you know what biomes are? Do you know how many there are? Could you locate them on a world map?
These are just some of the questions the children have been asked in their geography lessons over the last couple of weeks.
Year 6 had a great time celebrating World Book Day!
On Friday 28th February, the year 6 children all arrived at school excited for a day of science. The day consisted of 4 different science activities.
Today, in year 6, the children have enjoyed a fun-packed session delivered by Zoolab. Claire spoke to all of the children about a range of different animals – which the children got to see, stroke and in some cases, hold. She discussed how each of these animals have adapted to survive in their current environment and how they have evolved over time, building on from what the children have learnt through our Evolution and Inheritance science topic.
How have certain birds evolved to adapt to their environment and diet?
Year six have had a great start to the spring term.
Our Christmas film night was a great success!
Year six have an excellent understading of evacuation in World War Two.
