Year 6 have been working hard over the last few weeks - last week we learnt about the Kindertransport project from WW II and wrote fantastic information reports about this. This week we have written brilliant descriptions of a winter morning. In Maths, we have been multiplying and dividing with fractions and used our knowledge to apply this to ratio problems and scale factor. We have been investigating circuits in science and also enjoyed a Mad Science Workshop this week. We are looking forward to designing and sewing our own bags next week in DT and creating clay sculptures in the style of War artist, Sir Henry Moore.
Year 6 have had a busy half term and have worked really hard over the last few weeks, once we had recovered from PGL!. We have all enjoyed reading the class novel, 'Holes' and have completed some great writing based on this. Last week we participated in Life Skills Week workshops, learning about budgets and jobs with HSBC and also joined in Mindfulness sessions and learnt crucial First Aid skills.
After Half term we will be covering Fractions and decimals in Maths and continuing to learn about World War II in History. We will be learning new sewing skills and making our own bags for DT and will be creating some clay sculptures in Art.
