Autumn 2

Week 3

As writers, we have successfully learnt our Text Map for the beginning and build up of the Just So story: 'How the Camel got it's Hump'. We are now ready to innovate the story using our 'Writing Rainbow' lenses and create our own versions.

 

Week 3

This week, Year 6 had a special online learning session with the National Gallery. This gave children the opportunity to learn all about this historic building. Applying past knowledge, they made links to learning in Year 5 about Ancient Greece, identifying the types of column used in the architecture. As biologists, we classified different arthropods.

Week 2

After collecting ideas, drafting and editing our own free verse poems, we performed to our teams, taking into consideration expression and volume. In maths, we have been looking at different representations to compare and multiply fractions.

Week 1

As mathematicians, we have been adding and subtracting related fractions. In geography, we were challenged to draw the countries in South America from memory and then again at the end of the lesson after learning about the size, location and scale of the continent. In Science, we worked collaboratively to classify organisms.
