Friday 6th June

This week, in Maths, the children have undertaken a project called 'White Rose Tours'. They have looked at different countries climates, transport costs and accommodation costs. In Science, the children have been learning about warm- blooded vertebrates and their characteristics. They created a poster to inform. Also, the children completed their last AR STAR reader test; they did fantastically! 

 

Friday 23rd May

This week, in English, the children were asked to write a letter of complaint to 'Delerium'- an imaginary theme park they visited and had an awful experience at. They came up with fantastic ideas of what they could complain about: long queues, mouldy food, litter everywhere and rude staff. 6 Tolkien have worked really hard to ensure their letter is formal and consists of Year 6 writing skills. Well done! 

Friday 16th May

And just like that... SATs are finished! The children have worked incredibly hard during this week. We are so proud to have seen them all stay determined and positive. On Thursday, we celebrated by having some extra play time. The children loved going on the climbing frame and playing football. Also, the children have been working hard practising the Year 6 production 'School of Pop'. You won't want to miss it! 

Friday 9th May

This half-term, the children have been learning how to play cricket with Mr Watts. They have learnt to bowl, bat, wicket keep and field. They had a turn of each position. Kieran said, "My favourite part was batting because I was able to hit it far and get many runs." Our star players this week were (drum roll please)... Sid and Sienna! Well done!

Friday 2nd May

This week, we have been completing our practice SATs papers. The children have worked extremely hard and tried their best. We are very proud of them! In English, the children wrote formal letters to persuade the Government to act on climate change. They worked very hard. In Art, we have looked at the artist 'Bridget Riley'. The children have created some lovely 'optic' art. Rehearsals for the Year 6 production are underway! The children are beginning to learn their lines and the songs are already sounding beautiful. Well done Year 6 for a great week!
