Year 6 - Looking Back and Forth - Friday 23rd September 2022
Y6 – Friday 23rd September 2022 – Looking Back & Forth in Year 6
Looking back:
This has been a great week for Year 6. We have completed the first stage in our Exhibition research about Katherine Johnson and next week, we will continue along the “number” theme. In addition, we have also been learning about the different animal kingdoms, and about both ‘good’ and ‘bad’ bacteria. RE was enjoyable on Thursday – we used the computers to research religions and on Friday, we enjoyed tag rugby in the sunshine. We enjoyed a short “meet & greet” with the new reception pupils last thing on Friday – perhaps our buddies are not too far away!
Letters issued Y6:
Letter from Cheshire East regarding transfer to secondary school – emailed to families on Friday
Year 6 – Pupils’ Highlights:
- Finding out about different religions
- Publishing our Katherine Johnson work
- Meeting the new reception pupils

Family discussion questions:
- Who was Carol Linnaeus and what did he introduce?
- Can you name two animals that belong to each of the animal kingdom?
- What is the title of our class novel? Who wrote it? Where is it set?
Looking forward:
- We are moving on with our Exhibition work next week with a practical element, alongside our written work. Keep chatting with our pupils to find out what is going on.
