We have reached the end of the Summer 1 half term!

Our topic this half term was Natural Disasters, where the children have explored a range of natural disasters including volcanic eruptions, earthquakes, tsunamis and hurricanes. They have used map skills and learned lots about the Earth’s structure. Our written tasks have been explanation texts and poems, in which the children have demonstrated a range of new skills.

In Maths, we looked at fractions and began exploring time. Please continue this over half term and encourage children to read the clock daily.

In science, we have studied rocks and soils. We carried out investigations that included classifying and comparing. We looked at fossil formation and the work of Mary Anning.

PE this half term has focussed on Athletics, where the children have built skills in running, jumping and throwing.

Next half term, we will be taking traveling back in time to Ancient Egypt!

Thank you for your continued support and for all the donations towards our Jubilee party. It was enjoyed by all and the generosity was very appreciated.

We look forward to the final half term!

Mrs Campbell-Whitfield and Mr Ward

This half term we have been learning all about our Planet and the solar system.
The children have been fascinated to learn about astronauts, planets, stars and our wonderful planet; Earth!
We have also learned about how precious our planet is and how we can take care of it by recycling, reducing waste and reusing things. Please sned in any recycling boxes and containers that you don’t need so we can reuse them in school.
Next week we will be making musical instruments and castles out of junk modelling.

Next week we will teach the children all about the Queen. At the end of the week we are looking forward to having our own Jubilee celebration in the playground. Children will come in their own clothes on Friday and we would appreciate any food/drink contributions for the party.

Hey Year 6,

Well done for working so hard this week. Have a look at the two posters below to help you with your revision of angles and remembering possessive pronouns.

Can you come up with a way to remember the names of different types of angles?

Remember, possessive pronouns are used to show who owns, or can be linked to, an item. It is their possession.

Have a great weekend!

Hey Year 6,

Use the attached Verb Tenses poster to help you learn/remember the difference between verb tenses.

What patterns can you spot? How can you help yourself remember the differences? Could you create a mnemonic or acronym?

 

Good luck!
