Year 6 - Looking Back and Forth - Friday 19th January 2024
Y6 – Friday 19th January 2023 – Looking Back & Forth in Year 6
Looking back:
A cracking week in Year 6 – why not take a look at the many photos from some of our lessons to see what we’ve been up to. We’ve written a continuation of “Hansel and Gretel” – the descriptions of sweet-treats that are in our books would make everyone’s mouth water. Our skills in ratio and scaling have been honed, whilst we’ve enjoyed played (indoor) netball. We have studied the east coast of America and discussed how this is governed. We’ve enjoyed making multi-media presentations for IT and completed a further session on My Happy Mind. The electricity kits were out on Wednesday and we enjoyed studying more about hats on Thursday. A rousing week was finished with a lovely buddy session.
