Collaboration is key - especially in Year 6! This week we have collaborated and shared in every lesson - this has helped us to learn from each other. We have collaborated in Geography, making graphs on Purple Mash to show the rainfall in two places in South America, in our PE playing games of cricket, in our practicing of the assembly and most importantly getting to grips with our new roles around school . Alongside this, we are striving to be curious and active, questioning the world around us and actively making changes where needed.
This whole notion of collaboration will stand us in good stead as we move forward as a class. Earlier this week they each received their positions of responsibility and what a great start to the year they have made! They came back to school on Tuesday ready and raring to go and they have worked together beautifully, what a team they make. It was so wonderful to see how they each celebrated one another! You will see this in full force on Thursday 29th September 2pm for our class assembly. Please make sure they are practicing their lines and song for next week- thank you.
Author Visit
We loved our visit from the author Dan Worsley, he has truly inspired us as writers in the exciting workshop he did with us, and we have created some wonderful pieces of writing about a boy named Bazza- see if they can tell you a bit about their short story!
Samlesbury Hall Visit
Next term in History we will be learning all about the Tudors and even writing our own biographies of Henry VIII. To aid this learning, we have arranged to take the children for a visit to the historic stately home ‘Samlesbury Hall’ on 14th November where we will spend the day there and be took on a tour around the grounds. We have added the cost of this trip to parentpay, and we wanted to give you plenty of notice- many thanks.
