Year 6

Josh is this week’s star.  He works hard in all subject areas and Mrs Turner has been particularly impressed with his writing this week!  Well done Josh!

Year 6 have been learning about the parts of the heart and how it works.  To support our understanding, we dissected a pig’s heart and explored how the heart pumps blood around the body using a balloon, straws and water.

Here are a few examples of some of the finished mobile phone cases!

Happy New Year!

We hope you had a good Christmas.  Here is the overview for this term.

Topic Overview Term 3 YEAR 6

We made mobile phone cases out of felt.  First, we carried out some market research and used this to inform our design.  We then learned about different kinds of stitching before we started to make our cases.  We look forward to sharing the finished products!

To celebrate the start of our World War II topic, we carried out a variety of activities.  These included: code breaking, Spit Fire making and investigating evacuation and rationing.

We learned about how the Tudor Rose marked the start of the Tudor period when the House of York merged with the House of Lancaster.

Well done to Bronwyn and Kimberley for attending weekend maths classes at the University of Kent.  Here are some photos of their learning about Fibonacci’s sequence.
