This week the children have been practicing their racket skills in preparation for net games later in the term! We practiced balancing a bean bag and a ball on the racket while moving to improve our coordination and balancing skills.

This week, Class 6 have been exploring the different ways that we can use ICT. We explored the ‘digital diet’ and learned about how to use technology in a healthy way by finding a balance between using technology and spending time away from connected devices.

We connected with each other by writing messages using whiteboards.
We used technology to be active by following a yoga programme.
We got creative by using technology to make pictures.
We gave nice messages to each other by recording them using the iPads.
We spent some mindful time away from technology by drawing pictures and listening to calming music.

We had such a great time learning about Children in Need! 🐻

We fundraised by participating in a whole school ‘wear what makes you happy’ day and did lots of fun activities throughout the day to learn about the importance of Children in Need.

The children in class 6 really enjoyed decorating their Pudsey bears with lots of colours and facts about Children in Need and why it is important!

Wow! Class 6 have been working really hard on their houses for their History topic. We have learned all about the great fire of London and the children have really enjoyed recreating a scene from London during the fire!

The children focused on how close the houses were to each other and what they were made out of which helped the fire to spread so quickly!

The past 2 weeks the children have been designing and creating houses for the period of 1666, the Great Fire of London! The children have all taken their time to design their houses, being encouraged to think about the different styles, shapes, and sizes of the materials they are using to bring their houses to life.

We have really enjoyed learning about the Great Fire of London in History and have learned some very interesting facts! Well done class

6!

Over the past few weeks, class 6 have been exploring animals and their habitats. We started by asking ourselves “how do we know if something is alive?”, as a class we worked together to categorise living and non-living things into two groups!

Then we explored different habitats and the animals that might live in them! We have discussed and explored different micro habitats and the mini beasts that live in them, as well as the world habitats and the animals we might find in them.
