Year 6 – 24/11/17

In Science this week, we learnt about and modelled the 4 components that make up blood: red blood cells, white blood cells, platelets and plasma.

In English, the children have been busy writing and editing recounts from Traction Man’s perspective, with the target being to convey the egotistical personality of the character. Some wonderful language has been used and the resultant pieces of writing have an excellent humorous tone to them.

Maths has been all about developing fraction sense by becoming more confident and fluent when thinking about fractional magnitude.

We joined forces with Year 5 in PE this week and took advantage of the good weather by working on different athletics skills outside.

The class enjoyed seeing their framed artwork being exhibited in the hall on Friday afternoon and appreciated looking at what masterpieces the other classes had also produced.

As always, the children ended the week spending time with their Reception reading partners. It really is such a pleasure watching them interact so amazingly with their buddies.

Home learning letter is here.

The Advent Service script is here. I haven’t yet added the names of who’s reading what, but I’m sure most of you remember which part I’ve given you. I will aim to re-upload when I’ve got round to adding the names.

Well done for your hard work as usual this week. Have a fantastic weekend.
