23.1.26
It has been another engaging and creative week in Year 6, with the children showing great enthusiasm across a wide range of subjects.
In reading, we have continued enjoying Holes and the children are becoming increasingly absorbed as the plot develops. They have been making thoughtful predictions and discussing how the characters and events are beginning to link together.
In English, we have continued our learning about Macbeth by practising key speeches and performing a scene. The children showed confidence and expression when performing, bringing the language to life. Alongside this, we have begun writing our own narrative scene, applying the skills we have explored through drama and discussion.
In maths, we have been learning how to round tenths, hundredths and thousandths as well as adding and subtracting decimals. The children have worked carefully and shown good reasoning when explaining how rounding affects accuracy.
In art, we have applied our understanding of abstract art through photography. The children explored composition, angles and perspective, creating some striking and thoughtful images inspired by abstract artists.
As always, please continue to encourage regular reading at home and sign your child’s reading log. Thank you for your continued support.
