Welcome to Year 6

Welcome back after what is hopefully a well-rested half-term. it has been great to have everyone back in school. 

Maths: In Maths, we continue to look at the relationship between fractions, decimals and percentages and how we can convert between them in order to solve mathematical problems. 

English: We have started our new unit on 'The Lighthouse' where we will be creating our own narratives based on the story. We are looking at using powerful vocabulary to hook and engage the reader and focus on creating cohesion within our work through well-structured sentences and appropriate use of language. 

RE: In RE, we will be looking at what Christians believe Jesus did in order to 'Save' people.  

Science: In Science, we will be exploring how light travels. Through experiments and testing hypotheses, we will identify how we can use light to our advantage. 

Geography:  In Geography, we will be exploring how the flooding of rivers impacts on people and how flooding can differ from different regions around the world based on geographical location and climate.

PE: In PE we will have started our unit on Gymnastics and will be looking at how we can use different techniques to create a gymnastic routine.

Fabulous Art

We have produced some fantastic pieces of Art-work inspired by the artist Roy Lichtenstein. We have been influenced by the 'Pop Art' culture and artists who were inspired by this genre of art. We used different media to produce artworks in the specific style of 'Pointilism'.

Super Science

We had great fun exploring how components can be used to construct circuits in our topic of Electricity. 

The children also loved investigating if voltage impacts the speed of the motor on a scribbler.
