Year 6 News

We've had a brilliant first week back to school. This week, in Year 6, we have continued to develop our understanding of The Zones of Regulation. The children learnt about triggers and sparks and have explored their awareness of these and what they can do to help predict and prepare for them.

We also had a lovely time reading with our buddies, in reception, on our first day back.

This week:

In maths, we have been learning about order of operations and mental strategies for calculations.

In English, we have been learning about main and subordinate clauses; synonyms and antonyms; and colons and semi-colons in preparation for writing our narratives.

In reading, we are exploring the text Wonder and have been working hard to develop our reading fluency.

In history, the children have directed and filmed their own news reports about Evacuation during WWII.

Next week:

In maths, we will be learning about fractions (equivalent, simplifying, comparing and ordering). 

In English, we will be planning and beginning to write our narratives which build intrigue.

In reading, we will continue to explore the text Wonder.

In science, we will be learning about drugs and alcohol and the impacts of these on our bodies.

Important things to remember:

• Please check your emails from Mr E as he has sent out information about bikeability.
• Our PE days are Monday and Friday. 

Have a great weekend!
