We have got an exciting and busy final term in year 6 with lots to look forward to!
Spelling Bee
We participated in a fantastic Spelling Bee, a competition in which our children demonstrated their spelling abilities by spelling words aloud, one letter at a time. This event challenged their spelling skills, expanded their vocabulary, and encouraged focus and concentration. In preparation, the children showed great dedication, carefully learning and practicing the spellings for Year 3 and Year 4, as well as the more advanced spellings for Year 5 and Year 6.
Religious Education
This term we are going to think about what it really means to be a Christian. Who thinks it is easy? Why? Who thinks it is difficult? Why? Explain that to live as a truly committed Christian is always challenging but together we are going to discover what it really means for each one of us because this will affect the way we live our lives.
Maths
In our summer term, we are continuing with our Maths No Problem work, working on building our skills in; Geometry: position and direction, statistics: graphs and averages, number and place value: negative numbers, measurement: volume and arithmetic.
English
In English we will be looking at the book Manfish by Jennifer Berne and Sky Chasers by Emma Carroll. We will be looking at the difference between biography and auto biography. In which ways would you presume this book is a work of fiction and what the features of a biography contained in this book.
History
In History we will be able to explain the significance of people on banknotes. Decide whether a person is historically significant. Evaluate the significance of historical figures. Explain the significance of William Tuke. Discuss who was more significant, Lily Parr or Betty Snowball.
