Y6 - Friday 22nd March 2019 – Looking Back & Forth in Year 6
Looking back:
This has been yet another busy week with lots of learning happening across the curriculum. During our English lessons, we have been writing in response to our class novel – “Rooftoppers” – and we have perfected our reading of timetables in maths. There are now slices of bread – in plastic bags – scattered around the classroom as part of our science experiments! We could be finding the last remaining bags long after the experiment has finished! We have continued with our learning about the Iron Age and have been enjoying tennis and badminton as part of our PE lessons.
