Friday 22nd March

Math

This week we have continued our learning about co-ordinates. We have practised translation and reflection. We have practised long multiplication, decimals and ended the week pushing our learning with multi-step word problems. Every student has shown resilience and perseverance in their learning.

English

This week the outcome stays the same: To write an explanation of how an animal has adapted to its environment, however, our focus shifts to finishing our first draft and presentation. The students have chosen to make a poster or newspaper article or leaflet. This will hopefully be completed next week.

Events

PE: Our wonderful coach Erin had a great lesson on Wednesday with our new topic rounders.

Sports Champions: On Fridays, year 6 are fortunate enough to have a visit from Sports for Champions. It is a wonderful opportunity for year six to access this extra knowledge about sports and what it takes to become a champion. As a class, we are all working hard to complete the tasks of doing more exercise and eating healthily. We finished counting our stickers and we will wait to see what prises we won. Congratulations year six.

Waterparks: Please ensure you have a Waterparks information pack and that the medical consent form is filled and returned.

Congratulations!

As always in year six I am on the lookout for kindness and respect. This week I was recovering from an operation and some students made me cards, throughout the week I have had various students help me and check if I am okay, which is so kind and thoughtful. Thank you year 6.
